You seem to be a Road Dogg mark, Slim? Right? I don't think any of his single runs were that great. Maybe, it's because every time he cut a great promo and then put on a crappy match it just left a sour taste in my mouth more so than with most guys seeing as his Family is known for producing talented wrestlers.

And of course I'm going to bring up Dogg's shots in the main events even if they were outside WWE. I don't care how bad the booking was in those places. I also think he looked absolutely lazy during his TNA run so pushing him probably would have just been a bad idea. So that leads to a few years later and the Outlaw reunion which now brought in a guy that was always lazy with his size and talent in Billy Gunn. I'd say Dogg's charisma and Gunn already being established(if you would call the Smoking Gunns established) helped their original run in WWE but with TNA's booking and them not putting their best effort forward killed all of that.

Studd has size and looks credible against big guys but with said I'm not voting for him either. I just think the strengths of the two don't measure up to being better than the other one here. If you want to keep giving me reasons to vote for Dogg go ahead.

Studd pretty easily for me. While Road Dogg has some great charisma and mic skills, I just couldn't see him as the top guy, while I could see Studd as a good heel champ.

Obviously Road Dogg is a Tag Team specialist, I didn't take his singles runs into account when deciding who to vote for, he was great in The Outlaws and to me that was his peak push, it was successfull, so it gained him my vote.

I usually want my world champion to be able to entertain me in some way on the mic and it is obvious who could have did that better in this case.

Don't forget through Studd was in his prime during an era when mic skills didn't matter as much, you have to take things like that into account also, plus he just looked more like a world champion to me.
