You brought up an interesting point with Taker not belonging on Rushmore, but if we're basing it on who dominated the era then Austin is over Rock, not by much, but he is. Sammartino is a good pick as well, but since I don't know much about him I'd pick Shawn Michaels since he was the transitional guy between Hogan & Austin.

The picks for WCW seem spot on to me with Flair, Sting, Hogan, and Goldberg. If Hogan were to only be in WCW though I'd say maybe Nash could be in that spot perhaps. Booker T might also be another being he was the last WCW champion.

As far as ECW goes, which i know a little bit more about. Sandman obviously is one of em, Tommy Dreamer being one because no one is more synonymous with ECW than him IMO. Rob Van Dam held it up during the revival of the company in 06'. Then if we're counting it all the way to the end then I think CM Punk might deserve on the spot on the mountain since he was the only good thing to come out of the dulled out version of the brand.

Didn't know WWE put out their official 4 dudes, but they sure as hell put interesting ones. Dunno about Cena being in there, or Taker.

Anyway, WCW are Sting, Hogan, Flair and Goldberg, while Nash and Vader are debatable.

In ECW: Shane Douglas, Raven, Dreamer and Sabu. Mike Awesome, Taz and Terry Funk are also debatable. Heyman is booker, I don't put them in this, as I could've put Bischoff on WCW list.

Goldberg doesn't deserve it. He was relevant for 18-24 months. That does not make him worthy of a spot on wcw Mount Rushmore

And he was the biggest thing in wrestling for those two years and helped WCW keep momentum in the Monday Night Wars after the NWO/Sting angle had cooled off. 99% of WCW fans from the 90s would mention Goldberg as one of the first few wrestlers they remember from the period. He absolutely deserves it.

We are talking real ECW, not the DisneyCW WWE ran.

:haha: Then Sandman, Dreamer, and I'm not sure about the other two. Rob Van Dam & Sabu I'm guessing. Tazz was pretty big too

Raven!

Never realized he was apparently so underrated around here.
