Battle of the Wrestlers

Barney Rubble

International Coach
Hurricane is way better than Rikishi, so I wouldn't complain if you changed it.
Right, it's getting changed then. Hurricane, a.k.a. Gregory Helms, is in for Rikishi. Helms is one of the best Cruiserweights around, deserves to be there.

EDIT: I've also just looked back at the original list of nominations, and realised that Rhyno actually received two nominations before several others, but I accidentally left him off the original list. I'm going to use my executive powers to vote him in at the expense of AJ Styles, partly because Styles has a battle he's quite simply not going to win anyway. Rhyno's inclusion will make things at least a bit more interesting when that battle comes around.

As for this round, Mr. Perfect over Christian, one of the few people who never really rated Christian, and Hennig is a legend.

Going to say Tajiri over Dusty Rhodes, love Rhodes and all but Tajiri is magic and he's not going to get any votes either.

Matt Hardy is one of my very favourites, but The Rock is The Rock. Not fair really. xD

Last but not least Bubba Ray for mine, one of the best Tag wrestlers in one of, if not my favourite team of all time, and could mix it up messy hardcore in ECW or in your mainstream WWE. X-Pac is another that I never really liked much.

My votes for this round:

Christian, Hennig was a great but I never really saw too much of him.

Dusty Rhodes, genius on the mic.

The Rock. Should go very, very far in this. Unlucky for Matt Hardy though.

Bubba Ray, can't go past those TLC matches. X-Pac never had a memorable match.

Let's see...

Mr Perfect
Dusty Rhodes
The Rock
X-Pac

X-Pac had some good matches in his Lightning Kid/123 Kid days. You should check out the Bret Hart/123 Kid match from a '94 RAW, I think.

Dusty was a great, great promo. And there's a 100 Japanese wrestlers better than Tajiri.

Hening didn't have that many great matches in the WWF, but nobody really does. Still he was really good, particularly in 1993.

Agree with your votes...Although i think Matt Hardy should get a re-run...Possibly against Big Daddy V.

ffs, AJ Styles is a gun. gagfc.

Christian, Tajiri, Rock, X-Pac.
He is a gun, but he's just not gonna get many votes. He's been drawn against a possible winner of the whole thing, I'd be surprised if he got one vote that wasn't in sympathy. Rhyno on the other hand has had a lot more exposure, might get one or two against this particular opponent.

I believe it's "Go And Get ****ed, ****". Not a common one, I don't think.

This battle will probably close in another day or so, had a fair few votes already, so if you've not voted yet, do so!

Christian (not a fan of curt henning, RIP)
Tajiri (awesome wrestler, rhodes has always looked fat and out of place to me)
The Rock (fantastic, dwayne was awesome, tough break for hardy)
