Can’t believe I forgot Rowdy Roddy Piper. He always came to do two things. And he’s out of bubble gum.

To save time you could put up the 4 Horsemen - the Andersons - Arn, Gene, Olie and Flair.
Dusty Rhodes and Wahoo McDaniels could be there too!

I got spend a good bit of time with Tully Blanchard several years ago filming a TV show. We talked a lot about his wrestling career and how it affected his life. Why he got out etc.

No possible way to narrow it down to the four “best” wrestlers.
Four best promoters or owners is a better question for a Mt. Rushmore of ‘rasslin’

You absolutely can. You combine the technical ability, mic ability and how much they drew. Besides flair, sorry to the old heads but NWA guys even the horsemen are nowhere near the best of all time it’s just what you grew up with. That’s just favorites of their childhood.

1) Hulk Hogan, he is the WWF/WWE embodied 2) Andre the Giant, enough said 3) Bret the Hitman Hart, the best technical wrestler around 4) Bill Goldberg, one man wrecking machine 5) Nature Boy Ric Flair, stylin' and profiln' legend
This is a line-up that is hard to beat!

How many remember NICK BOCKWINKEL? Excellent tactician!
Then my fav's in no particular order: Superstar Billy Graham Magnum TA El Mongol Wahoo McDaniel American Dream Mr Wrestling 1&2 Dirty #### Slater The Black Jacks Ole and Arn never really liked Gene Ric Sting Steamboat and so many others! Always entertaining. When I was younger me and my dad went to watch them in Augusta's Bell Auditorium, I was devastated to learn it was a act. We stopped at the Seven/11 up the street and out of a van came Dusty, Magnum TA, Ole and Gene who were scheduled to fight that night. I asked my dad could he ride with someone who had beat him half to death multiple times and that's when he told it was all an act and they were friends and co-workers. Never was the same, but still enjoyable to watch how athletic they were. Even more athletic today than then!
