  1. EDIT ; Spoke too soon.
  2. With Nash at 53, I'm pretty sure we will see HHH at number one.
  3. You should watch some of his 2006-2007 matches - one of my favorites is this one : Mistico, Hijo del Santo & Negro Casas vs Atlantis, Ultimo Guerrero & Black Warrior from 08/04/2006
  4. A good Tv brawl in WWWF Blackjack Lanza & Blackjack Mulligan vs Dominic Denucci & Johnny Rivera - 06/1975 There is some clippings of him versus Flair. He was a great promo guy - I like the stuff when Flair came to see him in 1984 to team against Wahoo and Tully.
  5. A Santo match !!

    Kana/Asuka

    Any recommandation matches from 2004-2009 ?
  7. Indy guys like Joe, Punk or Low Ki.
  8. Chyna's gun ?
  9. With Lizmark, I might also be the high voter for Hokuto, Ozaki and Nagayo.
  10. Slatton shooting : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59WW9c93Tcs Lawman Don Slatton was the booker of Abilene (Amarillo territory).

    Verne Gagne

    He is one of the two Golden Era workers I vote for : First of all, he has the most amount of footage from CFA. The guy is a natural. His career start in 1949 and he already has good matches one year later (on tape). Not a top technician guy like a Pat O Connor or a Billy Goelz or even a Lou Thesz, he is in the tier below and he could held his own against these guys. His main card is the pure babyface : his selling is quite good and his fire is tremendous. He could carry limited workers like Dick the Bruiser or Yukon Eric with his bumping. On offense, he can throw a good punch. Some recommendations : Verne Gagne & Bobby Bruns vs Rudy Kay & Al Williams 05/12/1950 Verne Gagne vs Billy Goelz 06/21/1950 Dick the Bruiser & the Lisowski Brothers vs Verne Gagne, Wilbur Snyder & Argentina Rocca 1956 His three matches against Hans Schmidt (Wrigley Field, Chicago and Buffalo) His main problem is that we don't have footage from the 60's (I would love to see him against Mad Dog Vachon). In the 70's you can see his match against Jimmy Valiant for an example and it's the same way he worked in the 50's against a Schmidt or a Dick the Bruiser albeit a bit slower.

    The Voting Thread

    Re-reading my list, there are two names I feel I should switch - I did a modification on the website but I hope I don't send two ballots.
  13. 1. Flair 2. Misawa 3. Hansen 4. Kobashi 5. Casas 6. Bryan 7. Tenryu 8. Funk 9. Jumbo 10. Liger Ted at 55
  14. Bob Armstrong. He could do it all.
  15. I will watch that video later but I remember a good Terry Funk show from that card.
  16. Done single and tags.
  17. How are his tag bouts with his brother ?
  18. Buddy Rogers as a babyface in the early 1940's He could match the veteran in the stiffness.

    The Voting Thread

    It's Jon Cortez not Joe Cortez. Should I send Jon or Joe on my ballot ?
  20. It's El Bracero not El Braceo.
  21. When did the Machine Guns reunited ?
  22. What do you mean by a lot ? I watch all of his taped matches (10) from youtube. His personal performance was great in all of his matches. Old William Regal has similiar facial expressions and he borrows the robes from him. His only stinker was the match against Woddy Strode : a good athlete but a very green wrestler.
  23. Will you rate Lou Thesz and Verne Gagne ?
