And as of 11:30 AM EST Roddy Piper has zero votes.....

 

isn't there anybody but me that watched this in 1984-85? I know I voted DiBiase but I thought there'd be at least a couple Piper votes

I've heard the argument from several people in the past that DiBiase WAS the world champion, when he bought the strap from Andre. Myself, I call bullshit on that. It wasn't legitimate. I'm glad to see his name on this list and he gets my vote with little consideration whatsoever.

 

Not that anyone asked, but as for The Worst Wrestler Who (Thank God) Never Won the Big One Despite Their Big Push would have to go to his majesty, King Mabel.

Arguably,Dynamite and DiBiase were better wrestlers than Owen.

Heh, that may be the most wrong statement I've ever seen posted on a forum. Although Dynamite was an okay wrestler, DiBiase was horrible. I wouldn't watch a DiBiase match if I was paid $20.

Dibiase and Dynamite were incredible Workers as was Owen...

 

Dibiase put on a string of incredible matches in the 80's in the house show circuits...The man was easily one of the top 15 all around performers in history.

If not for that motorcycle accident, we'd be talking about Magnum TA as a great former champion.

 

On that list, I can't really pick...but Hennig is a definite biggie. He was a great wrestler and at the top of his game, he had a great shot, I think...

I can't believe the lack of votes for Brian Pillman and Rick Rude. Rick Rude was such an awesome heel had the look and had the skill. I think Pillman would explode in the WWE if his leg wasn't so messed up, such untapped talent.

 

I'd count RVd in third but couldn't vote for him because his career is still going.

I'm proud to tell you that you have surpassed me with the 'wrongest statement on a forum' award!Congratulations! You now win a Best Of Ted DiBiase in Mid-South tape and a year's supply of turtle wax. You should wait by the mailbox every day after school for at least a few weeks.

 

I'm a little surprised at the lack of votes for Rude as well. I thought he might get a couple based on his work in the early 90's. His run with that WCW International title or whatever it was called back then isn't generally considered a world title is it?

 

I don't think most people think that Pillman had reached that level in his career to consider him serious world title material,at least to the point where he should have had one. He probably would have eventually gotten to that level if not for the accident.

I would say Piper. From 1984-1986 he was the biggest heel in professional wrestling and should have taken the title from Hogan at least once, even though it probably would have been a short reign.

It would have made sense for Owen to win the title in December 97/January 98, because of the....you know what...incident, and from what I remember he got some pretty good pops as a face

 

Either him or Dibiase would be my choice.

 

You can all blame Honkytonk Man for Dibiase not winning (the time he was actually set to win it)

I don't know. I Just don't see Owen as a World Champion.

I just wanted to see HBK lose the title to anyone probably.
