  1. Random thought here, but I've been watching a ton of Terry Funk lately given his recent news and I'm more convinced than ever that he's the most talented pro wrestler who ever lived. He could do absolutely anything at a level that I think only Eddie Guerrero can rival historically. MOTDC's across multiple decades in a variety of styles, in a variety of roles, against a variety of opponents at various levels of the card, all while drawing money. 

    It's always hard to say "best", but I'm going to say he's the most talented. Dude can truly do anything at an elite level and make whoever he's working for money while doing it.

  2. Adding Hart really worked for me and I dig the whole thing. I think the act is still a “Coach” manager away though. It’s a shame Hennig is no longer with us because this is exactly what he’d be doing in 2021. Angle or Rick Steiner could work.

  3. To add to this topic and also piggy back off of the Miro discussion in the AEW thread, who is the best non-native English speaker (for English promos) on this list?

    Its almost Eddie, but last I checked El Paso was in the USA so he’s out. Then there’s Owens as a clear candidate from recent/current guys. But all time? I dunno.

  4. Echo’ing the Miro as Emerald Weapon sentiment. I recall a lot of (valid) discussion here about whether he as a pure WWE system product would succeed away from it. He’s turned himself into one of the best in the world after a year of Lashley bullshit followed by Kip bullshit. The man is Teflon.

  5. In this talk about WWE wanting to focus on bigger talent, it dawned on me just how many members of AEW’s hoss division were under WWE control at some point in time. Now I appreciate that’s an “AEW size” hoss list rather than a “WWE size” one (e.g. Brian Cage being 6’0), but WWE had control of

    Cage, Miro, Archer, Luchasaurus, Hager, Lee (RIP)

    At some point in time, and either didn’t develop or didn’t promote them for shit. 

    Not every guy on that list is a big time talent of course, but several of them are. It will be interesting to see how AEW continues to develop guys like Wardlow and Hobbs.

  6. Just me fantasy booking, but if I knew I had Andrade in the bag I think I would have debuted him at the PPV, moving the title match there to the main event and having him jump Omega after the defense. Furthers the Forbidden Door stuff re: the AAA match and makes him a much better deal than a segment 2 debut with Vickie on a show no one's really watching this week. 

  7. Man there's easily a year's worth of title matches out there for Baker. Statlander, Conti, Deeb, Rosa, Riho are all credible challengers and Velvet and Anna Jay when she's back would be fun TV defenses. This could be a hell of a run she's about to go on. Hell even Britt stooging around for Abadon for a month would be fun as hell.
