I agree with most of the names being on the list, however, I would number them differently. Jericho at 25? Macho Man at 14? Ric Flair only got a tie? Come on... That's just insulting to all three men.

edit: Man, lots of TNA hate on the list. Hulk Fucking Hogan is ranked #23? wtf man.....

Some interesting rankings.... Stone Cold #3? Hogan #23? Those two are easily the two biggest names in wrestling of all time. Also Interesting that Eddie Guerrero is #11, dont get me wrong Eddie is one of my favorite wrestlers of all time but hes ahead of some big names.

Also, I'm sorry but Shawn Michaels is a tremendoes performer and a great worker but he never could really draw like Austin, Flair, and Hogan. So him being #1 is also very odd espicially cause he was only the top guy in WWF for about two and half years.

^Okay, granted. But come on, Beandip Midget at #9? ABOVE Hulk Hogan? I'm not the biggest Hogan mark or anything, but even I recognize he's done more singlehandedly for the business than Rey can HOPE to do in a lifetime.

I agree. I hated all of the Hulk Hogan returns in WWE but you can't deny how he carried WWF to a whole new level. He and Andre made wrestling mainstream.

You can't forget Macho though. He played second fiddle to Hogan, but come on. He deserves to be at least at 7 or 8.

I don't think some names even really belong on there. I respect what Sgt Slaughter did, but I don't think he had THAT much of an impact. Same with Junk Yard Dog. Jeff Hardy??

WWE bringing the lols with this.

Rey being anywhere near a greatest of all time list is hilarious, WWE land or not.

I think what's even more crazy than Rey Rey at 9 is Harley Race at 6. The guy never won a championship in the WWF. He did most all of his work with the NWA. He only wrestled about 3 years in the WWE and his biggest claim to fame was winning a king of the ring tournament in 86, and jobbing to Hogan from then on.

Bruno at 24 too is pretty nuts as well.

I wonder how they compiled this list.

I would have had Hogan number one. But WWE isn't going to put out a DVD that promotes a guy that works for the other company as the biggest star ever.
