Guest messiahtype Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 i'd have to say owen hart. imo he was the most athletically gifted restler ever. his moves look so graceful. whether it was spinnig heel kicks, missile dropkick, nip ups, belly to belly, bridge suplexex etc.. thoughts?
Guest Human Highlight Reel Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 You can't judge a wrestler strictly off highlights.
Dobbs 3K Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 You'd seriously pick Owen? Look, Owen Hart was my favorite wrestler when he was around, but he wouldn't even be in the top 10 based on such criteria, IMO.
razazteca Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 Probably Jeff Hardy. A desire video of Jeff jumping off ladders with it ending with the quote of "Hey I'm not finished yet" would win alot of votes
Cheech Tremendous Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 I miss the days when a topic like this would be ripped to shreds and the noob poster would crack under the weight of the insults being hurled at him. What has this board come to?
razazteca Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 Maybe the mark does not want to play the game...and the simple fact that WWE sux right now.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 Kurt Angle or Steve Austin. Wait off highlight reel??? Mick Foley.
Corey_Lazarus Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 Off a highlight reel...or off of execution of moves? Because if it's the former, I'm agreeing with the schmuck above me and saying Foley. If it's the latter...fuckin' Benoit all the way.

What has this board come to? lol, you honestly think i would crack under some "net pressure"? it's not that serious. i hate when peole used the word noob. i guess since someone joined a message board before someone it makes them automatically more knowledgeable than someone who joined after, huh?
Perfxion Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 Well, this thread is lacking in a point or meaning. Its name wrestlers that do highspots, and its hard to judge because people like Snuka MSG splash and over the top rope plancha on "The Rock" are rememebered more than Jeff Hardy and Shawn Michaels jumping off a ladder every Wrestlemania. Plus, what was holy shit level in 1987 "Savage crushing Steamboat with the douple axe handle" is now a setup spot to put heat on the manager.
