these are some of the all-time greats
welcome to watchmojo.com take down our
picks for the top 10 WB wrestlers of all
time for this list will be ranking the
most popular and influential grapplers
to ever lace up a pair of boots and step
into the squared circle we realize not
all of these legends spent their entire
careers in Vince McMahon's House of
muscle but they will be viable for
inclusion so long as their music filter
WV arenas and their images were put up
on that time tron number 10 Randy Macho
Man Savage we know what you're probably
thinking how is Macho Man kicking off
our list and you'd be right that's just
a testament to how many talented
performers have stepped into a donut
ring not the least of which was this
show-stopping elbow dropping icon the
Macho man's intense promos were one of a
kind and his matches with the likes of
Ricky the dragon steamboat the stuff of
pro wrestling legend savage shined
during an era of giant performers and
slow lumbering matches bringing to WV
his accelerated weight great infectious
charisma and a character which could
work gangbusters as both a babyface and
a heel the Macho Man was truly one of
the greats
number 9 John Cena sure big match John
has been accused of burying
up-and-coming young talents numerous
times over the course of his illustrious
career but that doesn't take anything
away from the natural magnetic energy of
Cena as a performer John's early careers
signified that the dawn of W is a
ruthless aggression era during the early
and mid 2000s where Cena earned his
stripes as a promising rookie saddled
with an awkward fun gimmick as the
rapping doctor of lurgha Nomex Cena put
on good matches while honing his craft
waking up the ranks to eventually become
as The WB's most recognized star today
he's used that star power for good doing
charity work for the make-a-wish
Foundation while remaining a future WWE
Hall of Famer never rates
Daniel Bryan why
I know him as Bryan Danielson or the
American dragon there's no denying that
Daniel Bryan made his initial mark
within the pro wrestling in these
circuits Bryan was already an
underground star before jumping to WBE
but it wasn't a foregone conclusion that
he would enjoyed the same success in the
big leagues it took years of poor
booking and forcing backstage hands for
Bryan to emerge as one of the company's
biggest stars thanks mainly to their
desire to keep him down in the mid guard
the yes movement couldn't be stopped
however a Daniel Bryan has since managed
to overcome injury and destiny to become
a multi-time w e've world heavyweight
champion number seven
Eddie Guerrero what more can we say
about latino heat' himself Eddie
Guerrero the much missed superstar has
proven to be an influence upon countless
performers in the years since his
passing with young talents around the
world studying Guerrero's incredible
career he came from a wrestling family
and cut his teeth performing in Mexico
as well as with ECW and World
Championship Wrestling Eddie was already
a star from that promotions
cruiserweight division and he managed to
use this momentum into a transition with
friends Dean Malenko Perry Saturn and
Chris Benoit over to dub dubby
furthermore Guerrero was able to
overcome personal demons with a
triumphant W beat championship win over
Brock Lesnar at No Way Out in 2004
cementing his career in front of the
entire world
number six Ric Flair there are many
wrestling fans out there who have argued
that Ric Flair is the greatest of all
time and they're not wrong it should be
said however that flag didn't need the
WB to make him a star because he was
already stylin and profilin in the AWA
and NWA
long before he made his debut debut in
1991 that doesn't mean the flag didn't
have some amazing matches during his
time
in the company however such as the time
you won the 1992 Royal Rumble after
debuting and number three all his
association with the evolution stable
plus his iconic retirement match with
Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 24 in
2008 was a true classic and must-see for
anyone interested in the pathos of pro
wrestling as a legitimate art form
number 5 the Undertaker out of all the
wrestlers on this list this just one who
truly seems to personify W B as a brand
mark Callaway aka the Undertaker has
managed to reinvent himself in numerous
times while remaining a homegrown WB
Star Wars and a locker room leader The
Undertaker has evolved from a mystical
monster heel into a conquering dug baby
face from a demonic cult leader to a
badass biker all the while capturing the
imaginations of the WB universe for
generations the dead man is delivered
countless classics with the likes of
Triple H Shawn Michaels and mankind the
latter of which made world headlines
after take it infamously tossed him off
a cage during Hell in a Cell 98 often
imitated but never duplicated there will
only be one Undertaker now before Bret
the Hitman Hart
the excellence of execution had
wrestling in his blood with the Hart
family siring a multi-generational brood
of professionals and performers in the
industry his quick and technical style
helped define the WB's new generation
era where the big and burly performers
of old were being replaced by a younger
and more fast paced breed of performer
the hit man always delivered the goods
whether as a tag team with brother and
Lord Jim the anvil Neidhart
to his single success as both
intercontinental and dota me heavyweight
champion body slams and clotheslines may
have defined the business in the 1980s
but Bret Hart helped mark professional
wrestling as a technical exercise with
real athleticism and charisma number 3
the rock Dwayne the rock Johnson is an
International names a day but it was
with w/e where the former Rocky Maivia
found all of the talents which would
make him a certifiable superstar the
rock made an art form out of the
pro-wrestling promo for a performer
delivers a monologue to fear that the
storyline of their character
Johnson kids all can ad-lib with the
best of them and this enabled his
character to mature from a generic
babyface to the most electrifying man in
sports-entertainment
was rocky a great technical wrestler now
but he delivered where and when it
counted and transcended his industry to
become a worldwide icon number two Shawn
Michaels just as the rock was a genius
at delivering promos so too was Michael
Shawn Hickenbottom aka Shawn Michaels
adept at another one of the pro
wrestling basics selling the tomb
basically just means to sell your
opponent's offense in order to achieve
the proper level of drama and
physicality for the match Shawn Michaels
could sell a car with no wheels to your
local auto dealership without batting an
eye so innate was his skill as a
performer sure Shawn's reputation as a
backstage politician is legendary but no
one's effect and the man has delivered
so many five-star matches over the years
that it's easy to forget any of the
negatives
the Heartbreak Kid is a true WB legend
before we name our number one pick is

Stone Cold Steve Austin he was for many
the performer who personified WB's
lucrative Attitude Era a period where
the business was as violent crude and
adult-oriented
as television would allow Stone Cold
Steve Austin had audiences eating from
the palm of his hand from the moments
where the iconic shattering glass sound
hit and as music filled the arena
Austin was an accomplished and
believable badass on the mic and an
underrated performer in the ring selling
his opponents offense while delivering
his classic Stone Cold Stunner finisher
