The Unofficial TSM American Wrestling Hall of Fame

[AboveAverage484 0]

I thought it would be cool to make our own hall of fame. Kind of markish, but whatever. List four and only four American wrestlers (active or inactive) worthy of "Hall of Fame" status. Nominations are based soley on a wrestler's work in America.

 

I'll tabulate the votes and the four best vote getters will be "inducted," with maybe a tribute thread or something. Ties will be determined by a vote-off.

 

I'll try to remember to do this every six months or so. Also debating on whether or not to allow members under 100 posts to nominate. Thoughts?

 

My picks:

Ric Flair

Mick Foley

Steve Austin

Bret Hart

Chris Benoit

Sorry, I meant wrestlers who mostly wrestled in America, unless you were nominating Hansen based on his American work.

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

I don't follow.

 

... why?

Nominations are based soley on a wrestler's work in America. Sorry, I'll edit that into the first post.

 

If you still want to nominate Hansen that's cool, I just thought he was most recognized for his work as a gaijin in Japan.

 

BTW, have you seen my challenge in the Misc. Wrestling folder?

But...

 

Bret Hart is Canadian.

[iliketurtles 0]

But he made his name in America.

[JST 0]

Only one name is worthy of consideration...

Edit: Do tag teams count as one nomination? teams like the Freebirds and Road Warriors probably wouldn't get in based on their singles careers in America.

Good point. Next time it will be four wrestlers and one tag team.

 

Thanks for asking.

Question: Are we voting based on workrate, accomplishments, personal enjoyment (markism), or is it a combination?

So let me get this right.. Are you going to take our nominations and put them in a poll, or are the actual nominations the votes?
