1979

[Grimmas]

Who is the greatest wrestler of the year?

[elliott]

Terry Funk - Has the two all timer tags vs Sheik & Abby, a classic singles match with Abby,  the tag vs Dos & Mil, the Lewin match, etc etc. Yeah Terry Funk #1 Forever. 

Another Notable - Buddy Rose has feuds with Piper & Adonis that are two of his best. These two are on a run of being the #1 and #2 male wrestlers on Earth in some order.

Greg Valentine, aside from strong stuff with Backlund, pulls out not one but two good matches against Jay Strongbow.

[Ricky Jackson]

Valentine also has strong MSG bouts against Bruno and DeNucci.

Pat Patterson is another WWF guy from 79. Top stuff with Backlund but also with a young Dibiase over the North American title. Plus great promos
