So you're saying that Rey Mysterio Jr. is/was better than Rey Mysterio, who is the same person. and not to mention the exact same gimmick....... I don't think Rey was really recognized as a Giant Killer in the WWE... IMO. |

WWE constantly refers to Rey as "the ultimate underdog" and the "biggest little man in the business"... so, yes, his 'giant killer" gimmick is fully intact. I'm pretty sure that Rey has defeated every major big guy to come around during his time in the WWE.

did someone ask what was so great about Scott Hall? well, aside from his personal life, in short, everything. Hall and Hennig are one of the forgotten (potentially) great tag teams of all time.

Not to mention the fact that Scott Hall was Verne Gagne's hand-picked replacement for Hogan after Hogan jumped to the WWF. Think about that; Hall was so charismatic and such a great performer that he was considered the second in line to Hulk Hogan when Hogan was just about to become the biggest thing in the history of the business. |

I'll watch a few Scott Hall matches later, then... Hopefully I'll understand what you guys are saying.

His personal life was a wreck, but Hall was something special. When he cared he could put on a great match, he could command the crowd with just a look. The guy was excellent, the only guy that cared more about money than the business that I actually respect his ability.

The guy was excellent, the only guy that cared more about money than the business that I actually respect his ability. All of this, except the last part (for me). Nash was clearly a mercenary, and I respect the heck out of his ability. Don't get me wrong, even at his peak he was a mediocre wrestler, but he was a phenomenal entertainer, and really underrated for his mic work (largely because he was mostly working around/behind guys who were better, like Hall & Michaels). Nash shared Hall's ability to command the attention of an audience, and probably had superior ring psychology to a lot of guys who are more respected for their ringwork than he will ever be. |

I actually think the cowboy was right before that, because I think he straightened out his hair and dyed it an even lighter shade for the Hogan rip-off gimmick, but I could be wrong. |

Larry Zbysko... man, that guy sucked at literally everything he ever tried. Terrible wrestler, even worse commentator, and somehow even worse yet as a rapper.
