JerryvonKramer Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 I’d like to see the argument that puts Joe Malenko above Dory Funk Jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSR Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 I’d like to see the argument that puts Joe Malenko above Dory Funk Jr. And the one that puts Debbie Malenko over every other female wrestler bar Manami Toyota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB8 Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Andrei Kopylov as a top 10 all-timer is some wild shit that I’m all the way in on. I’d like to see the argument that puts Joe Malenko above Dory Funk Jr. Well...at least he had Dory ahead of Terry! Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This and Volk Han at #4 I mean, tbf, Han as a top 10 guy is something I’ve seen before. Kopylov as a top 10 guy is something I’ve never seen before and it wasn’t too long ago where we ran a poll and someone had Scott Steiner as their #1! (I am not knocking that list, btw. I’m all for more lists with obscure Russian sambists ahead of your Dynamite Kids and Bret Harts) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NintendoLogic Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 Three Jumbos on this list and none of them are named Tsuruta. Interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOTNW Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 I like this list because it's interesting, though it is a little weird it doesn't include Fujiwara and Maeda. Or, if you're strictly looking at skill, people like Geesink and Sakaguchi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSR Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 Dave Finlay and Norman Smiley both make the honourable mentions list and your top 100! You say you've not seen enough Anton Geesink, but how much Joe Stetcher, Orville Brown and Jackie Pallo have you seen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
