Top 100 wrestlers of the 90s Empty Top 100 wrestlers of the 90s

Post by Hero Sun 10 Feb 2013, 9:49 pm

Mandatory.com have posted the following list that they believe is the top 100 wrestlers of the 90s. As they're always good for generating debate I'm posting it here too...


If you're a man above the age of 20, chances are you watched professional wrestling at some point during the '90s. If you're like me, you basically watched nothing but professional wrestling.

It was the golden era of the sport, and every Monday night we all tuned in to see who was jumping from the WWF to WCW, or what Degeneration X was going to pull off that night. It was something that you could watch with your dad or your little brother and everyone would find something they loved. With that being said, after much time and deliberation, here are the 100 Greatest Wrestlers of the '90s.



100. Alex Wright

Why he's on the list: After finding success in Germany, "Das Wunderkind" captured the WCW Cruiserweight & Television Titles. Let's just try to forget that awful dancing.


99. The Nasty Boys

Why they're on the list: Despite what may have been the worst entrance music ever, the Nasty Boys were incredibly successful winning both the WWE and WCW Tag Team titles through their career.


98. Marcus Bagwell

Why he's on the list: "Buff" Bagwell started out in WCW partnering with Scotty Riggs in what appeared to be a Chippendales commercial. He later became the leader of the nWo Wolfpac, along with Scott Steiner.


97. Marty Jannetty

Why he's on the list: Although never achieving the level of his partner, Shawn Michaels, he did return to the ring in 1993 to defeat Michaels and win the Intercontinental title.


96. Ultimo Dragon

Why he's on the list: Although much more successful in Japan, Ultimo Dragon was one of the marquee cruiserweights in WCW feuding with Dean Malenko, Rey Mysterio, Jr., and Eddie Guerrero.


95. Jushin Liger

Why he's on the list: Debuting at age 19 in New Japan Pro Wrestling, Jushin Liger is still going strong 28 years later. He has feuded with everyone from Brian Pillman to Sting to Owen Hart.


94. Abdullah the Butcher

Why he's on the list: With successful stints in the WWE, WCW, ECW and NWA, Abdullah may be best known for his 1991 feud with Sting where, at Halloween Havoc, Cactus Jack accidentally electrocuted him in an electric chair.


93. The Pitbulls
Why they're on the list: If you didn't get to watch ECW wrestling in the '90s, before the WWE, bought the wrestling world do yourself a favor and check them out on YouTube. The Pitbulls had an incredible feud with The Eliminators that could have headlined any pay-per-view event.


92. Mabel

Why he's on the list: Despite numerous terrible gimmicks and constant underachieving, Mabel was a fan favorite and always fun to watch while a group tried to eliminate him during a Royal Rumble.


91. Bob Holly

Why he's on the list: Starting out as a virtual unknown, Holly eventually found success in the WWE's Hardcore division, winning the title six times.


90. The Gangstas

Why they're on the list: The Gangstas were known for bringing everything from guitars to crutches to the ring as weapons and I'm pretty sure they joined every post-match brawl that occurred in ECW.


89. Val Venis

Why he's on the list: Yes, he had several successful title runs but is there anyone that won't remember Val Venis for his entrance music and video?


88. Kamala

Why he's on the list: Probably the wrestler that gave me the most nightmares as a kid, Kamala feuded with Hogan in the WCW and battled the Undertaker in the very first casket match.


87. Konnan

Why he's on the list: This luchador feuded with Rey Mysterio, Jr., and Chris Jericho during the early part of his WCW career, including winning the Television title on a November 1998 Monday Nitro.


86. The Sandman

Why he's on the list: Known for drinking and smashing numerous beers over his head before every match, The Sandman was best known for his lengthy feud with Raven that included several reigns as the ECW World Champion.


85. Harlem Heat

Why they're on the list: Booker T and Stevie Ray dominated the tag team field of WCW battling the Outsiders, Steiner Brothers, Public Enemy and many others during their tenure in the organization.

Why he's on the list: Joining the WWE in the Nation of Domination with the Rock and Mark Henry, Brown later went on to simultaneously hold the European and Intercontinental title.


83. Haku/Meng
Why he's on the list: The legends about Meng are like that of a Greek warrior. There was more than one incident where he was said to have bitten a nose off, lifting Brutus Beefcake two feet off the ground while choking him and knocking grown men across rooms with a single head butt. Oh, he also had a successful wrestling career, as well.


82. Papa Shango/Kama
Why he's on the list: Before becoming the street fighting Kama, Papa Shango tormented the Ultimate Warrior with black magic. He also made black ink drip out of Mean Gene's jacket sleeve while Gene cried, which was one of the funniest moments in wrestling history.

Top 100 wrestlers of the 90s Empty Re: Top 100 wrestlers of the 90s

Post by Dr Gregory House MD Sun 10 Feb 2013, 11:01 pm

Is this supposed to be the best wrestlers of the 90's based on what they achieved in the 90's or just because they happened to be around then?

For example

50. The Honky Tonk Man

Why he's on the list: The Honky Tonk Man holds the record for the longest Intercontinental Title reign, one that will probably never be broken. His incredible feat lasted 454 days.

Honkey's reign was ended in '88, probably his high points of the 90's were being Eric Bischoff's favorite WCW firing and the manager of Rock-a-Billy.

Kurt Angle didn't debut until late 1999. It's a bit unfair to put him in a Top 100 list with only 1 months wrestling under his belt. Billy Gunn could be there but would be very near the 100 mark, maybe in place of Bob Holly. I don't see how Road Dogg would be there at all.

Whilst I don't disagree with this, they were all still active well into the 90's. They also achieved stuff in the 90's: Demolition were still tag champs in 1990, Beefcake ended Mr Perfect's undefeated streak, and Valentine went on to win a (mediocre) belt in WCW, whereas Orndorff had a more successful run there.

Dr G is roght, you can't list guys just because they were around in the 90s if their best achievements didn't happen IN the 90s

Billy Gunn should definitely have been on that last since we're using kayfabe achievements, multipe time Tag Champ with two different partners in the 90s, a member of one of the most iconic factions ever in Pro Wrestling in that decade and also a King of the Ring in that decade, not to mention singles titles

Sgt Slaughter is another one for that decade, he was a turn coat Judas War Criminal who walked into a WrestleMania as World Champion, that alone should get him on the list

Crash Holly, Chris Candido, Stevie Richards

Andre the Giant shouldn't be on that list, all he did in the 90s was stand on the apron while Haku worked, turned face on Heenan then helped the Rockers against Fuji and the Express, same with Demolition, they had 4 months as the real deal before they put Ax on the shelf, Honkey is another who shouldn't be on it, his best work was in the 80s, Valentine and Orndorf were well past it.

I can see an argument for Beefcake, he did end Perfect's undefeated streak, he had a hughly popular weekly Barbor Shop segment that progressed a lot of stories and had a WrestleMania double Main Event slot with Hogan against Money Inc

Where would you put them?
Ok, Brian Christopher had quite a successful career prior to joining WWF, but he was no Eddie Gilbert who also didn't make the list. Scott Taylor spent much of the 90's as a jobber. Maybe they should just put Rip Rogers on there? How about Barry Horowitz?

Gangrel? Cool character but a flash in the pan at best. And Christian was very much the third man of The Brood and didn't really get going until late 1999.

I'm not sure I agree. How great are achievements later in the decade? The belts were devalued by stupid short reigns. As far as I'm concerned, Tito Santana working an IC Title program with Mr Perfect in 1990, with the roster as saturated as it was, is a greater achievement than Edge winning the title and holding it for a day in 1999, in a year where the title changed hands, what, a dozen times?

Yeah, I picked Edge specifically. He popped up in 1998, and was starting to get going in 1999. So he had just over a year and a half on the roster in the 90's, dancing around the mid card. That earned him a place above several other former IC Title mainstays and a couple of former World Champions too. Tito Santana had a longer time on the mid card than Edge in the 1990's, until he slipped to jobber to the stars come 1992. He deserves to be 47th if Edge is 59th.

I think the gap between Jericho and Triple H is far too close. Triple H done much more between 1997-2000 than Jericho, but is only seperated by 4 places.

I'm trying to do a 100 right now, I'm unsure if I'd include Edge, Santana definitely doesn't make it, I'd ask though, despite the time frame, who would you consider had a bigger impact on the business at those respective times? I'd say Edge but only as part of a Tag Team

If you're basing it on the WWF alone you're correct, if we're basing it on the time frame of the 90s then Jericho's body of work in ECW, WCW and the WWF might not be to far off that of Triple H's

Did Jericho really make such an impact compared to Triple H during the 90's?

Apart from his man of 1037 holds thing and WWE debut I don't really remember much.

I think you're forgetting how big Santana was in 1990. He was right on the cusp of main event. The fact he was chosen to be the third man alongside Hogan and Warrior at Survivor Series 4 speaks volumes. There was even rumours that he was in line for Bret Hart's title run until WWF decided to push for Canadian viewers instead of South American. He had 1 very good year in the 90's. Now, I don't think that warrants him getting 47th, but he would certainly be above Edge in my book.

I'll admit, when Edge showed up I thought, "this kid has something". But whilst he went on to greatness, in that year alone his achievement of a 1 day IC Title reign does not outweigh what I consider Tito to have achieved in the same time frame.

On the subject of Edge and Angle, if Honkey Tonk Man, can get a top 50 placing based on an IC title reign that ended in '88, the presumably the success that Edge and Angle went onto achieve also has to be considered.

To be honest I don't think this is a great list, obviously it's a monumental effort and I haven't got my own list to offer at the moment but it seems like only the basist amount of thought has been put into it.

Also by what criteria do you have the Steiners some 40 places above the Dudleyz?

Honky Tonk Man shouldn't be in there. He wasn't even really being used by the time 1990 rolled around. What did he have, a Rumble appearance and a Survivor Series match before he left in 1991? Based on that, Edge would be above him. Angle though, didn't he debut at Survivor Series 99? That's not enough to be in the Top 100 of the 1990's either.

I'm not saying Angle should be on the list/would be on mine, but by the criteria of this list, if Honkey's IC reign is credited, Austin's 3rd rumble win, Sting's TNA title etc then Angle should be on this list.

Also with the Steiner's, they are probably my favorite tag team of all time and I wouldn't quibble with them being above the Dudleys but a full 40 places?! how does someone come to that conclusion.

You make a good point with Angle, and whoever wrote this has clearly got some of their dates wrong. Although Austin and Sting both did more than enough in the 90's to be very high up on the list. I doubt their later careers were considered too much. Honky Tonk has just got to be the writer not thinking it through, but that does devalue his writing.

I've got no problem with the Steiners being where they are. Even the gap with the Dudleys. They were a great tag team, a very important part of WCW in the early 90's. The fact they're not credited as singles competitors makes me think the writer has taken into consideration Scott's push in the late 90's as Big Poppa Pump. They're a much bigger draw than the Dudleys for the 90's.

I'll be honest, I really have no idea why Santana was in that "Grand Finale Match of Survival" although I am well aware that he was considered for the WWF Title in 92 although to be fair it was only Tito himself who said this and no-one verrified it, the story goes that they where looking to push the Hispanic Wrestlers and like you said decided to go with Canadian, I felt Tito was kept semi relevent by 1990, someone with some name value but not someone that would do anything other than put the new talent over. When he and Martel finished Strike Force in 89 for good for me that was the end of Santana as a genuine contender, Martel on the other hand had a far better 3/4 years after that IMO.

As for Edge, I've got my years wrong, I'm thinking he and Christian began teaming and winning Tag Titles in 99 not 2000, still, I'm not really making a case for Edge, like I said he wouldn't be in my list anyway, I'm making a case for someone who isn't in it

For the no-sell on Sid's powerbomb!

Kayfabe, I agree with you that come the end of 1989 Santana was at the end of being a serious contender. I don't really know why I'm arguing his cause. I was never a fan, and he doesn't warrant 47th on the list. I would put him in the Top 100 though. He still had some gas left in the tank, and I think he achieved more than Edge did in the 1990's. Edge wouldn't be on my Top 100 of the 90's although he'd get a good placing in my Top 100 ever. Same with Kurt Angle. He'd possibly make my Top 10 of all time, but I'd be surprised if he made even the PWI-500 of 1999 let alone anyone's Top 100.

I thought IRS was brilliant to be honest, I probably appreciate him more today than what I did at the time but anyone who could make that gimmick work was a genius in my opinion, also his tandom with DiBiase was a match made in Heaven

I think IRS was involved in plenty of decent feuds in the 90s in the WWF alone to merit a place while the only thing I can vaguely remember Hercules be involved in angle was was that injury angle with Shawn Michaels as a member of Power and Gliry in 1990, I thought Power and Glory had a great finisher by the way

Mike Rotundo was a very good performer.
Is he a GOAT? Hmm, no. Does he belong in the Hall of Fame? Yes, one day.

Any man that can make Captain Mike work in a tag team with Norman the Lunatic and it not be considered a gimmick team is alright in my book. Both WCW and WWF could've made more of his amateur days. The Varsity Club was a good gimmick. In fact, I think it's these gimmicks (plus Michael Wallstreet) that got IRS over as a serious competitor as we already knew he was a top, yet underrated, performer.

Hercules on the other hand was what he was. A limited powerhouse. But I liked him. He could well get a place on the Top 100 of the 80's (the feud with Billy Jack Haynes was quality), but what did he really have left in the 90's? Power and Glory flopped, he jobbed out his WWF days and then became Super Invader in WCW. Which also flopped. If he could get a place in the Top 100, I'd never give it to him over Mike Rotundo.

IRS was better than Hercules as a singles competitor, and Money Inc were better than Power & Glory as a tag team.

Jesus calm down people. ffs. Very Happy

Just my opinion I though Hercules was better than IRS.

Having said that Hercules was more involved late 80's, wasnt quite as good in the 90's.

IRS didnt impress me.

In the words of the Great Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan, I thought he was a ham n egger.
