Austin is up there, but it's plainly obvious who the greatest of all time is...

And now, the greatest choke slam ever performed by anyone ever...

Hell...I'd be happy if Kane was declared the GOAT.

Glen Jacobs was (still is?) Awesome...

I even liked "Corporate" Kane...as lame as that was.

Well...maybe if the Undertaker didn't keep wrestling long past
his prime people would be more inclined to call him the GOAT.

Just saying...

Any Legacy can be tarnished.
A legacy that includes 20 years of brilliance cannot be tarnished with 10 bad matches. Besides its not like wrestlers returning way past their prime for an easy payday is exclusive to Taker. Also, lets not forget that this guy was having 5 star matches when he was 44. For a wrestler his size, that is pure class. WWE having to rely on 60 year old men to temporarily boost ratings, instead of focusing on making new stars is entirely on them.
And btw, yes I want him to retire too.

I think Kurt Angle may be one of the Best in WWE History. But that's just My Opinion. I mean, Every Fan seems to really enjoy his character.
Finally someone pulled the trigger and said Kurt Angle was the best

He is arguably the greatest of all time. Seeing him face guys like Benoit, Guerrero, Michaels, etc. was amazing

Another Greatest of all Time in my book is the most technical, agile, charismatic big guy in the business

who was screwed by Vince McMahon and his bookings at 2 WM's. At least wait until he was 25 and 0 to break the streak

That man is no other than The Undertaker

A fair call...& I'm glad you see reason in him retiring.

@Mr. Roman Empire I don't hate Hogan, so obviously, as usual, you have no idea what you're talking about. I respect Hogan for what he did for the majority of his career. He became a jerk, IMO, later in life. But I've never hated him. Besides, whether or not I hate Hogan has NOTHING to do with me telling you AND everyone here to discuss the topic rather than tell the OP his criteria is wrong.

Hogans not the best of all time, but he’s def up there, whether you agree with his personal bs or not.

I would say that overall I honestly have to agree that Austin is the best of all time. His feuds, matches, promos, segments, and overall character was beyond over, almost to the point absurdity. He truly was the complete package.

I do think that people like flair deserve a shout out, but Austin is the best IMO; insomuch I think Vince even says he’s the greatest of all time.

I actually agree with you. The guy was not only one of the greatest wrestlers ever, but he could literally do it all: heel, face, whatever you needed, and he did it well.

As a human being, Hogan is a lousy person. As a wrestler, he is actually not bad. He has skill that he showed in AWA and in Japan, but not really in WWE or WCW.

But Flair is the greatest mostly due to the response he gets from his peers. Almost every one of them agrees that he is the best.

No he’s not. His non-wrestling abilities are awesome but he still lacks in-ring quality a lot.

I’mma drop my unofficial top 10 list here:
1. Chris Jericho
2. Shawn Michaels
3. Ric Flair
4. Bret Hart
5. Kurt Angle
6. Daniel Bryan
7. The Undertaker
8. Stone Cold Steve Austin
9. Bruno Sammartino
10. CM Punk
