I think his babyface work in 1993 WWF is a nice counterpoint to the criticisms of 1988-91. He seems a more serious performer, and does less bumping, I assume because of the back injury. Liked his matches with Bret, Michaels, Doink and Martel from that run.

Nicely argued. I never had a problem with AJPW Ted, thought he was fine there.

Interesting theory, Joe. Although, credit those guys with being tough as hell to last in AJPW too.

Nice! Born in 1978, first generation wrestling fan in 1990 - and knew no other wrestling fans.

Best of luck, Parv.

Still love the tags from 1989-95 (They got a bit lazy afterwards). That's gotta count for something with me.

I can separate the matches from the events of June 2007. I think he deserves serious consideration as a top 20 wrestler for me.

Voting for Lesnar 2012-date, is like voting for Undertaker based on 2008-13. I can see both in my list.

I've watched quite a few of his early 80s AJPW tags too, enjoyed that. Let the Dory renaissance continue!

I'm paraphrasing, but someone mentioned that KENTA only has one speed, but it's a good speed. Feel the same with Angle. He's not a darling around here, but I enjoy his matches, flaws and all. I also think TNA seems to be a blind spot with a lot of posters, and would recommend his matches v McGuinness, Kennedy, Hardy, Storm, Aries and Roode. Just to get you started

I don't hate Brody. Liked a lot of his tags with Hansen and his matches with Terry and Dory, Blackwell, Abby, Flair. He's by no means a top 100 lock, but I don't spit every time I utter his name either

Wow! Now we're talkin'! I don't want to rehash all the politics etc from early on. In his favour - 08 feuds with Hardy and Orton, matches with legacy in 09, Undertaker at the 2 Manias (hey, I liked them), 2 good Lesnar matches, Bryan at Mania and the 2 Shield matches after that.

That - the metric shit ton of fresh footage since 2006 - sounds like a lovely podcast idea for you Dylan.

That's the funny thing about Jake - he's incredibly watchable but never quite puts together fantastic matches. It's like the Arn discussion going on, except he's another rung down that ladder.

His 1997, 2002 and 2003 are really solid full years. I think the Mania streak 2007-14 could be a big bone of contention on how he's rated.

I'm going through a Raws and PPVs from 93 and 94 at the moment. Plenty of nice solid work with Bret, Jannetty, Razor, Tatanka and the HeadShrinkers. I agree that he's been torn down for so long here that he's underrated. I think that's happened with a few guys.

....and here's a bit of both... http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/27900-tnas-highs-and-lows/

Ah, the anti-TNA bias are back! The conversation about their better stuff starts up around here.... http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/4730-is-tna-the-worst-wrestling-promotion-in-history/page-35

His TNA stuff has stacks of gems.

Oh, I'm up for that. Just letting you know the lay of the land going in.....

Fair enough.

At the minute, I could see Angle and HHH making my 100. I'm wondering how much abuse I'll get for that if I haven't had that PWO-ised out of my system in 2 years.....

Really? I didn't find it that objectionable. Although that could be just letting WWE's slant wash over me. What annoyed you most?

Thanks. I'll turn the volume down.

What date was the Arn v Big Josh match on WCW Saturday Night in 1992?
