I think I'm in the minority for ADR, but I think he should advance. If, and this is a big if, we are using his matches in Mexico, the man can perform like Punk, D Bryan, or Richards. So ADR for me, no disrespect to Funk, but I don't see any redeeming qualities to the man.

Have to pick Dory Funk, All i've ever heard is good things about his NWA title reign and Del Rio has done nothing to impress me.

Didn't even have to think about it.

Don't think Del Rio deserves to be world champion.

This is as World Champion so it's Funk by a lot for me, very underrated technical master overshadowed by his Brother's legendary craziness.

Del Rio has done nothing as world champion. Dory easily.

Agreed with this.

Dory Funk Jr by far. Del Rio has been booked horribly as champion so I can't go for him.

This is a champion tournament and Del Rio looks like a champion from top to bottom. I like Dory but the stories I hear about why he became champion always make me a bit skeptical if he really deserved it or not. So as far as champions go Del Rio wins because he'll always be one.

In a few years maybe Del Rio would be a contender in this kind of tourny, but for now Dory gets my vote.
