The Mandarin Posted December 11, 2004 Report Posted December 11, 2004 Since I can't accurately judge the 80's (only seen a handful of tapes/shows), I'll just say it was Heenan and not do the rest. 90's- 1) Chris Jericho 2) The Rock 3) La Parka 4) Dusty Rhodes 5- tie) Owen Hart/Chavo Guerrero Honorable mentions to Eddie Guerrero, Joey Styles and Bobby Heenan. 2000's- 1) Steve Austin 2) The Rock 3) Kurt Angle 4) Rob Van Dam 5) Goldust Honorable mentions to Vince McMahon, Ric Flair and Joey Styles.
deancoles Posted December 11, 2004 Report Posted December 11, 2004 80's 1) Ted Dibiase(the debut videos are the main reason) 2) Bobby Heenan 3) Fabulous Rougeau Brothers 4) Slick 5) Hart Foundation(because of Neidharts laugh, Jimmy Harts megaphone, Danny Davis and the pink tights) 90's 1) La Parka 2) The Mountie(the Quebecers were good as well) 3) Norman Smiley 4) Chris Jericho(1998 until he turned face in the WWF) 5) The Cat(because of the Norton feud,the Yung Dragons thing and selling Glacier's armour to Kaz Hayashi)

Guest Ransome Posted December 11, 2004 Report Posted December 11, 2004 2000s 1. Kurt Angle. He's played the dorky (but hilarious) heel character so consistently well I find it hard to seperate the 'real' Angle from the character. In particular: circa 2001, and his stuff with Austin. 2. Eddie Guerrero. In particular: the original Lie, Cheat & Steal vignettes from early 2003. 3. Austin. In particular: the first few weeks of the whole What? gimmick 4. Goldust 5. Gene Snitsky. Unlike my other four choices, this isn't based on personality per se, but his gimmick. Mainly because Snitsky's showdown with Heidenreich had me laughing harder than anything else in wrestling this year. It's just so ridiculous....it's irresistable.
MillenniumMan831 Posted December 11, 2004 Report Posted December 11, 2004 (In no order) 1980s - Capt Lou Albano - Rowdy Roddy Piper - Lucious Johnny Valiant - Bobby Heenan - Iron Sheik 1990s - Bobby Heenan - Chris Jericho - Owen Hart - Evil Doink - IRS --- For as goofy as this character could have been, Rotundo did an awesome job of attempting to make it feel somewhat legit while still keeping it entertaining/light-hearted enough for it to work (Quit crying and start PAYING!). 2000s - Ric Flair - Kurt Angle - Vince McMahon - Heel Rock - Norman Smiley/Glacier tandem
Mrnoitaull Posted December 11, 2004 Report Posted December 11, 2004 just takin a shot Angle Nunzio Bubba Ray Flair Kanyon!
The Mandarin Posted December 11, 2004 Author Report Posted December 11, 2004 I can't believe I left Al Snow and Mick Foley out.
Guest JebusNassedar Posted December 11, 2004 Report Posted December 11, 2004 1. Colt Cabana Solely because of Good Times, Great Memories. "You know, Becky, really smart girls know this secret way to touch their elbows behind their back." 2. Al Snow Due to his European Title reign. 3. The Rock (Heel) His last feud with Austin was only good, in my opinion, because of Rocky. 4. Ricky Reyes Check Joe's latest diary entry for why. "Fuck Diet Sprite!" 5. (tie) Excalibur and Disco Machine Proving time and time again why you should go out of your way to wait for the DVD versions of PWG Shows.
Toshiaki Koala Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 "Dey's a lady! Dey's a lady in the men's bathroom!" Enough said. Big Show also deserves a mention - the first appearance of the Showster may be the single funniest moment in wrestling history. And Bossman was brilliant during his feud with Show. He really believed in his character, making it all the more hilarious. He will be missed.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 Kurt Angle... Watch his Weird Al interview featuring the Rock at No Mercy 2000. Classic.
Toshiaki Koala Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 Kurt Angle... Watch his Weird Al interview featuring the Rock at No Mercy 2000. Classic. Yeah, that was amazing. *Fly buzzes in front of Rock, who brushes it away* KURT: Well, we know what flies are attracted to.
EVIL~! alkeiper Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 Since most of the good recent ones are covered, I think Larry Chene of the 1950s/60s deserves a mention.
Guest Arnold_OldSchool Posted March 15, 2005 Report Posted March 15, 2005 No one mentioned BUGSY MCGRAW??? I thought Dusty Rhodes was funny back in the day as well. And Lawler as a heel in the mid 80's.
natey2k4 Posted March 15, 2005 Report Posted March 15, 2005 This isn't going to be too popular... but Eugene... I'm sorry but this guy made me cry I was laughing so hard at points during his time around. I'll give it a shot though... I'm going to pick 4 wrestlers/announcers and a tag team for each era 80s.. (wasn't born till the late 80's so I dont exactly remember it all..) Bobby Hennan Ted Dibiase Rick Martel Roddy Piper The Midnight Rockers (they had some funny lines) 90s Evil Doink Bobby Hennan Chris Jericho Owen Hart The Million Dollar Team (IRS and Dibiase) 00's The Rock The Hurricane Eugene Christian Charlie Haas & Rico JBL Kurt Angle I had to add in Kurt Angle and JBL.. they have been so funny... i just agree with World Champions shouldnt revolve around comedy all the time and they did for the most part during those funny eras for them... but they are still hilarious.
Guest Loss Posted March 15, 2005 Report Posted March 15, 2005 Um ... is anyone planning on mentioning Buddy Landell anywhere?
eiker_ir Posted March 15, 2005 Report Posted March 15, 2005 Edge & Christian were AWESOME! i still laugh my ass off when i watch the HArd Knocks & Cheap Pops DVD. Sodas Rule! The Hurricane and The Rock during the weeks leading to WM 19, too funny.
Some Guy Posted March 16, 2005 Report Posted March 16, 2005 Edge & Christian were AWESOME! i still laugh my ass off when i watch the HArd Knocks & Cheap Pops DVD. Sodas Rule! Yeah, it does! "For the benifit of those with flash photography" and the subsequent 5 second pose always cracked me up. 2000 was such an awesome year for WWF. Business was huge, they had great matches, and tons of comedy that was actually funny. Foley/Angle/Christian/Edge (in that order) were hilarious in their skits together.
