For me, it was always and always will be The Rock. I can't actually remember the point I got into wrestling, but my childhood was saturday mornings at 10am for Smackdown! just after Godzilla Laugh

For me, he defined that generation, his rivalry with STSA was incredible, full of respect knowing that the other was part of something special at the time. The three WrestleMania matches were great as well. For me though The Rock had it all, the charisma, the mic skills and above all he was actually a very good wrestler. He had a submission move and two finishers which, although were not the most devastating to watch, they` are two moves that will always go down in history.

He also showed that he could play a heel character just as good, if not a little better than his babyface character. The Rock concerts were legendary and his insults of the place the shows was in during the Raw show were hilarious, even the people he was insulting cheered him. For me, that shows how good The Rock was, he was cheered as both a heel and face.What I mean by that is, even though he was a heel, people enjoyed the banter, the insults of the hometown and the insulting of the baby face wrestler, such as SCTA and Goldberg.

The match I will always remember for The Rock being a part of was the Survivor Series winner take all match. It started with the two greatest superstars for me and the greatest rivalry in The Rock and Stone Cold, and it finished with The Rock and Stone Cold. Rock got the win to put the Alliance out of business and it was a night i'll always remember as a young kid. The other probably was his win over Austin at Mania, he got his win finally over him as a heel but the crowd respected both and I believe it was Austin's last match I believe, what a fitting end it was.

Over to you guys.

Mick Foley. The crap he put himself through to entertain the likes of me and you means he gets MASSIVE respect from me. Plus he was awesome on the mic and his ring psychology was spot on.

Shawn Michaels. The way he could steal the show every single night no matter who his opponent was amazing. From Mania 19-26 he stole the show at every single one of them.

I think if I had to pick one, it would have to be Angle. Great as a heel or face, brilliant in the ring, brilliant in serious and comedy mode.

Can't believe I forgot about him in my top champs voting!

If I could have a top 5 it would be (in no order)

Kurt Angle
TUW
Vader
Macho Man
Ted Dibiase

For me Bret Hart followed by the heel HHH in the attitude era.

Those 2 along with Kurt Angle, Randy Savage and Christian make my top 5.

For me it was Hogan and Warrior. When I first hooked, I was caught in the euphoria of these two. Me and my brother constant scoop slamming each other and no-one could sell the Hogan leg drop like I could!! British Bulldog always had us cheering and his success at Summerslam 1992 had us just jumping for joy for 3 days!! I also loved the Legion of Doom.

As time moved on and Hogan and Warrior were no more, I became Bret Hart and my brother became Undertaker (being stronger and taller) many ugly jobs which included illegal chair shots (with pillows of course) and even once my friend as a special guest referee dropping a rock on me which inspired the whole Nick Patrick era of dubious officiating!

As I got taller, we had Diesel/Razor Ramon v Undertaker/Psycho Sid. I remember jack-knifeing my brother through me parents bed, and despite that being the absolute moment of my life being 15 at the time, I was grounded for a month for that spot!

But seriously my favourtie wrestler of all time is Stone Cold Steve Austin. The sheer magnestism that followed him. Talk about right person, right time. I felt he could no wrong for 3 years. Followed closely by HHH. I used to really like HBK, but once he went christian he lost a lot of appeal for me.

HBK will always be my number 1, in the 90's he was such a great heel, especially in Canada! Everywhere he went he would get so many people angry to the point where they wanted to kill him, I have never heard boos like it! His matches were always brilliant and he really could sell to make his opponents look brutal.

His promos were funny and kept your attention, he had arguably the greatest rivalry of all time with Bret Hart and he is one half of the original DX and the shenanigans he and HHH pulled were pretty much the basis of the attitude area before he handed the ball to SCSA and he ran with it.

Not to mention that my respect for him grew when you consider he stayed loyal to the WWF during a difficult time when everyone else was jumping ship to WCW.

Angle would be my number 2 and then Eddie in 3rd, what I would of done to see those 3 face off in a triple threat, it would be a wrestling fans wet dream.

I had a similar experience except I delivered a chokeslam to my younger brother, luckily I had the same bed as them so I took all the wooden beams that were broken and replaced them with mine, I still have that bed when I come home from uni. For 5 years that thing has been propped up on suitcases and books and they still haven't noticed laughing

Austin 3:16 for me all the way. Every PPV I watched was just to see him kick some a$$. I cried when he turned heel at WM17.

It's such a shame his career had to be cut short, he achieved so much between 1998-2001
