Simply enough thread. Everyone has a favorite wrestler but what made them your favorite? Try to keep it solely to current active WWE stars.

For me it was The Miz when he cut this promo on MVP and his time in the WWE. I didn't see much in him before this. His mocking of Cena didn't entertain me, neither did his team with Jomo, I thought Morrison carried the team and still do but when he cut this promo I realized he was something special and as he continued to grow I became more and more of a fan.​

That's exactly when I became a fan of his too to be honest. Was a really good promo. Once again you stole my post. I'll post another though:

Was always a fan of Punk but this is when I became a big fan.

I stopped watching at "I'd rather you all hate me for everything I am then love me for something I'm not" that is one fantastic quote.


I must admit that i was a huge Orton fan my entire life, like ever since i started watching wrestling i was inspired by Randy Orton.
But this...just...this promo made me after several years change that.



I started to like CM Punk during summer time last year around July or something, the guy impressed me with his awesome promos and that Money In The Bank PPV where people chanted for him like it was Stone Cold entering the ring. Yeah i know i'm not an old punk fan but this guy is just number one on my list and that won't change like forever since no one in the WWE impresses me that much without Orton. So around summer time i realized this guy is special and after a couple of months the world will start cheering for him, and there you go every Raw there's like 80% people with the BITW shirt.

I really respect him for his work and i'm sure you all like the guy too.

As for me my current fave is Wade Barrett hated him when he first but this feud with Orton his mic work and his in ring ability improving I'm a mark!

Jericho- Reading his list of 1004 holds
Barrett- When he was the leader of Nexus, cutting great promos to open most Raws in 2010
Ziggler- Loved him from the time I started tuning in again on a regular basis (circa 2010) when he was IC Champ on SD

Bret Hart When I was a kid, he didn't have to prove anything b/c I thought it was real.

There was no deep analysis on my part. I simply enjoyed watching a master technician

Jumping between Realities.
Undertaker - When I started watching around 2002-03 and I saw him face Brock Lesner on smackdown around that time...
Eddie Guerrero - During His WM match vs Kurt Angle when he cheated by faking a injury and then rolling up angle.
Chris Benoit - I really like Benoit before his death......I became a Fan during HHH vs HBK vs Benoit.....

Batista: Not till after he retired. Stopped watching for a bit and then thought back to the good old days of being a kid and watching Smackdown every friday at my best buds house. Batista always headlining, and he just reminds me of good times.

The Miz-Basically since his debut but I didn't really start obsessing over him until Miz and Morrison, probably my favorite tag team also because the memories.

Taker - Even as a little kid I was into "horror"/'scary"/"dark shit, and Taker was just so badass to me. One of my favorites ever since.
Bryan - Always liked this guy. He's ring skill always impressed me, and he has this quiet charisma about him that's such a turn on. Also, really fucking laid back and cool guy. Hard not to like him.
