Of all the big names we have had in wrestling, those who are considered legends, future legends, who do you consider the worst wrestler of all time amongst them?

The Ultimate Warrior wouldn’t have been anything if it wasn’t for his look and energy (and we can toss in a great theme, too). Absolute shit in the ring and on the mic. Zero talent.

Out of the big names Khali and Warrior I'd say and even Warrior had some fire runs, maybe it was actually just how well he was booked but he def had some high points. I'd say late WCW Hogan tbh too, maybe after 97, the formula REALLY wore off.

Warrior, Kahli, Andre the Giant, Sycho Sid, Ryback, Lex Luger, Scott Steiner (Big Pappa Pump), and Goldberg. There are a few obvious ones I missed, but meh.

Hell no to all three.

Andre could work his ass off in the '70s and was a verified attraction. Lex Luger was over and could put on a good match when he wanted to, and unless you're specifically saying his post-1998 work, Scott Steiner was one of the best pure wrestlers in the world from 1990-1997.

Andre was alright, but mainly got over due to size and such that is pretty much it. Lex might have been over, but his matches were just alright and I mean just his time in general not a specific time frame. Scott before he became Big Poppa Pump was great and could put on great matches. Scott as Big Poppa Pump was just alright. Mean, this is all my opinion if you think it is trash or dumb or what other word you want to use then fine as it is my opinion and very few people agree with them, which I couldn't care less about.

Imma back my partner Deth up here on Big Poppa Pump. Dude was tragicly bad for a vast majority of his time with that character. I mean, 2000 and 2001 he did some alright stuff. The ten or so years after that he was ass. And I thought he was excellent up until the late 90s.

CM Punk....unathletic, thought he should be pushed to the moon because of an indie run, constantly complained, and brought in toxic fans.

You know that Tombstone spot was Taker’s fault, right?

Once Steiner became Big Poppa Pump he could barely move. It was sad to watch.
