Really wish Raven was against someone else so I can pick him since his reigns in ECW were nice but sorry Stone Cold.

I loved Raven but he just doesn't stand a chance in this poll against Steve Austin.

Stone Cold is the greatest world champion in history. Doesn't matter if he's against Hogan, Flair, Rock, Undertaker, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho, Triple H, Bruno Sammartino, Randy Savage, Goldberg, Sting, Kurt Angle, John Cena, Mick Foley, it's irrelevant. He's the greatest wrestler of all time, by a country mile.

Raven? Irrelevant. His runs in WCW and WWE were overlooked, unspecial midcard runs and other than that he's a career Indy wrestler. Not that good on top of it. His mic work in particular is overrated to absurd levels. On top of that, he's not a true world champion in my eyes. The ECW title is NOT a world title, I don't care what anybody says and by the time that he won the NWA title, it had lost every ounce of meaning that it once had. Holding it when he did is not the same as holding it in the 80's, it lost legitimate world title status by any credible standards.

It may be expected, but I will mark out now. OH EM GEE AUSTIN 3: 16 4EVAH!!11!1!!! Yes, I voted for the ultimate winner of this tournament Stone Cold. I mean, he's the greatest World Champ of all time and the greatest of all time, no doubt about it.

I have a lot of time for Raven and his title reigns were decent, but Austin takes this one by some distance.
