Scott Hall - Just because I liked him a lot as a kid09. Chris Benoit - despite his personal faults he was one of the best the squared circle has ever seen08. Owen Hart - versatile in styles and good on the stick07. Great Muta/Keiji Mutoh - great in two eras of puroreso and a personal favourite06. Jushin Liger - amazing light weight and the benchmark for cruiserweight wrestling05. Bret Hart - rock solid performer04. Harley Race - the king03. Kenta Kobashi - with out a doubt one of the best Japan has ever seen02. Jumbo Tsuruta - clearly in his prime the greatest worker to ever step in the ring01. Ric Flair - no one was as good as he was for the amount of time he was. He may never have reached Tsuruta's skill level but to be as good as he was from '78 to '98 makes him the top pick in my book. The mic skills are a bonus.Steve Austin or HBK can easily take Hall's spot but no one else'sthose foreign guys are no good unless you post some great matches... (seriously, we need to see some great wrestling, and you can do it)Let me see what I can dig up. Youtube should have some stuff. But remember that puro is a different style than what a lot of modern US wrestling fans are used to. There's no finishing moves, or high spots with a lot of the heavyweights. The idea behind it is the essence of what wrestling is; to convince people that what you just saw was real, despite knowing it's fake.I'm a huge fan actually. Thanks to the internet, I have seen lots of wrestling from around the world. I was a huge fan of Lucha in the 90's, not because of WCW but because of watching Mexican stations. I think that when people here watch Japanese wrestling, they'll have top respect, especially because all the wrestlers here steal the moves there.I find that most US fans get very bored of the great Japanese matches. I'd compare it to watching a 6-3 NFL Football game when you've never watched Football before. If you love Football and respect defense you may love that game for than anything. But even most NFL fans might find it boring. Forget about trying to impress new fans with it.Also, in Japan they focus on the quality of the wrestling more so then out here. American fans are more impressed with having these mammoth size wrestlers...and shitty wrestlers with "mic skills".

Quote from: Poppa Large on December 19, 2008, 10:33:41 AMI remember I think it was wrestlemania 5 when Ultimate Warrior gorilla pressed Rick Rude and fucking LAUNCHED him straight into the air. Shit was unbelievable. That dude had to be so roided / coked up to pull off some of the shit he did.Also Rude probably pushed off really hard to help with the effect.
