The No Smark Zone 24: Who is the Brett Favre of Wrestling?

[Kaedon]

Yeah but none of them are in their primes and Taker is better than both of them right now. If anyone is closest to their prime shape, it is Booger Red.

 

[NYKings]

Based on last night Flair, himself, thinks he's comparable to Brett Farve.

and Farve best ever?? There's quite a contreversial topic.

EDIT: Made a thread in sports discussion to debate greatest QB ever.

 

[PeepShow]

^Wasnt that what I said?

 

[King Of Kings]

I would say its Flair cause hes lasted so long and hes the oldest.

 

[Reinvented]

Terry Funk cant go anymore. He is nowhere NEAR what he used to be back in the day. He's like Ric Flair -50

You put Mick Foley the main event jobber in but not Funk???? That's all I'm sayin Funk still does what he can in the ring for his age....FUNK before Foley!!

 

[Kaedon]

Foley can still go a lot closer to what he could do in his prime, now a days. In Foleys prime he was taking dives off of cages. While he cant do that now, he is taking slams on barbed wire covered boards and going through flaming tables. Funk used to be a great worker but now he cant work the crowd like he used to and he cant work a match like he used to, and it shows. It doesnt show as much with Foley, Taker, HBK, and to an extent Ric Flair.

 

[Headfirst For Hardcore]

I would say HBK too. He delivers in all of his matches, against any opponent, even going longer than guys 10 years younger than him. He still gets a monster pop and sells merchandise too.

Undertaker would be second, because he's able to change his gimmick and still be successful. From the classic deadman, ministry, american badass, and to the deadman again, how about we call him Madonna? He knows he has to adapt to his body and doesn't try to act "young" again.

What about Abdullah????

I still think Funks better then Foley cause we see Foley off and on but Funk still doing shows all over the place...

 

[Millzy Pt. 2]

It's tough I wanna say HBK but I gotta go with Nature Boy

 

[Kaedon]

Funk is worse off physically and cant do what he used to BECAUSE he wrestles so much and takes so many pointless bumps.

And i havent seen Abdullah in a looong time, but I bet his ring work isnt what ie used to be, not that he was that good to begin with

 

[Reinvented]

And that doesn't merit Terry Funk above Foley by still going and taking those "pointless bumps" and having these thousands of matchs when he should call it quits. It shows more passion then Foley has because all Foley does now is let himself get buried to now have nobody cheer for him...

 

[Kaedon]

yeah it shows more passion but Favre has passion AND can still go just like he is a rook. Funk cant. Flair cant.

Ok if Flair can't then why is he on your list???

Ok that still doesn't answer my question in how Foley is in and not Funk... Biased I think Yes....You even just compared Flair and Funk and one is on the list and the other is not.....WATS UP WIT DAT????

Because if you send Terry Funk out in front of 20,000 people in any city that isnt in Texas, the fans wouldn't know or care who he is. All you have to do is PLAY RIC FLAIRS MUSIC and you get WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO all over the arena. Shit, Flair doesn't even have to be on the show and there are signs for him there. Flair is 50x the star Terry Funk ever was. Flair can still work a crowd like he used to, even if he cant work a match like he used to. Terry cant do either.
