I think I am going to just end the list at 25 and then start some other list. After 25, the order will probably just be insignificant. Maybe a list for just openers will be nice since basically only 4 openers made this list.

The list has hit rock bottom.

[HookShot]

Faced everyone from Fazal Mahmood in the 50s to Snow and Willis in the 70s.
