And coincidentally in that year Hurricane was voted best gimmick. The Rock did the right thing.

Hurricane Helms was very over at the time so it made sense.

Apparently they really liked working together. Especially in the backstage segments.

@@orangesilver4568 true but would someone like Hogan do that? Or HHH during those years?

@@deandrenicholas2545 their backstage segments were hilarious

The Unstoppable Force vs. The Easily Moveable Object

The unjobbable force vs the unjobbable object

🤣🤣🤣

Remember those inflatable toys that's weighted on the bottom so they pop back up after punching them... hbk was basically a human version in that match

I actually found that match entertaining. To me, hbk selling like that made sense to me. Bc Hogan was supposed to be this powerful, unstoppable force, and hbk was visually smaller than hogan, so it made perfect sense to me.

Agreed. Possibly the G.O.A.T. in every way. I think you need to look at guys that he respects as list of people who have redeeming value. His moral compass.and heart seemed to always be in the right place. The fact that he was going after a young Shawn Michaels, yet they ended up "friends" to the point that Michael's retired to him, says a ton about the man. He was hard. He was honest. But, like that coach that you sometimes hated as a kid, you love him once you mature. Also says a ton about how much Michaels matured over the years. The top on ring performers, in the modern era 1980-now, who could do ANYTHING in the ring...style wise, pace, moveset, tell a story...would be Styles, Michaels, Undertaker, Bryan, Angle, Hart, Kanyon, Guerrero, Benoit... But, because of who they were/are...Eddie and Undertaker are the GOATS.

Long reply lol.

@@jasonschwartz9481 lol was a good read. Undertaker is the GOAT. His relationship with Vince is something nobody else could have had. And to be on good terms with that man by just being who you are, without compromising your own integrity, I don't think that's even possible with anyone else! I guess the way to deal with Vince is just to be too fucking good lmao

@@jasonschwartz9481 you forget about his anti gay homophobia? I still rate him a better dude than most but that chair shot on Kanyon keeps him from being the goat.

@@WhoTheHellIsHarvy The way is to suck up to Vince and use your swing to rule over 'lesser' people who don't have that swing.

Working a program with Hogan in the 80's was going to be a giant paycheck for you. Just ask the Big Boss Man. His first paycheck was $25,000. Jake "the snake" Roberts was pissed that his planed program with Hogan was killed. Because it was going to be his biggest paycheck ever.

His onscreen persona was bigger than life back then. You have to separate the actor Terry from the character Hulk Hogan. The Hogan character was amazing. The man Terry, always kind of a prick in real life.

Wanting the money they’d get from working with him is a far cry from actually wanting to work with him.

@@melissamcfarlin6840 I'm pretty sure that everyone was wanting to work with Hogan or otherwise they would be an idiot

Oh, you mean he had no athletic ability?

Yea I'm surprised he didn't try to run the show being a co-host or getting himself involved in a match

It's not completely out of nowhere. You might want to pay attention to his time in Japan. You will find that Hogan is a far better worker than he appeared to be in the WWF. He only worked as much in WWF as Vince needed him to.

Go watch Hogan in Japan. He had skill but all McMahon needed him to do was get beat until a certain point then do his thing. We all ate it up even though now it looks pathetic. 😂

@Herry Valenzuela I lost interest in Lesnar like years ago. Ever since he needed like 10 minute breaks to catch his breath in the middle of his matches. Then he's always blabbing about how dominant he is.

@@xq8152 That's exactly how early 90s Undertaker was. He would "bide his time". Then make a "zombie style comeback".

She just had a big ego and really wasn't that good in-ring yet always thought she was.

@@ddoctriness not really saying much tbh.

@@dean8705 she was still a decent worker and the infamous "yelling" vince did to her and mccool for putting on a good standard match is still spoken of today. she was one of the best talents and had the most creative stiche tbh.

"Bang bang, I just lost my ear." Cactus Jack's actual words minutes after his ear was ripped off

He actually did wind up with his jaw wired shut, and had to eat through a straw for a bit, there's working snug (like strong style) and there's physical assault, in the business, you're number 1 job is to protect each other, not make it so they lose income, and ever notice when Foley did the barbed wire stunts,most of the time he had clothing on? It wasn't on bare flesh. It's wrestling accidents like the ear can happen, DK had little man complex with roid rage, he was unsafe and worst part, he didn't care.

"BA GAWD THEY KILLED HIM! AS GAWD IS MY WITNESS HE'S BROKEN IN HALF!"

I think that squash match he had with the Bulldogs. That was like literally his 2nd or 3rd match as a pro.

I wonder if after that clothesline, he came up with the catchphrase “Oww! Have Mercy!”

None of those are relevant to this list.

@@tankkilla7488 She should be on the list, which makes it relevant. End of story.

@@tankkilla7488 You dumb?

Not to mention being a glorified pimp .

Yeah, it's surprising that the Fabulous Moolah isn't on the list.

I came here to post this. Please do this list, guys.

If they do, I would expect to see Big Show, Bayley, Daniel Bryan and Finn Balor on that list. I keep hearing stories and anecdotes about how lovely they all are behind the scenes.

@@paranoidpixie95 I never hear anything bad about the Rock. I'm curious if that's just careful planning from his team or if he was a good person? McFoley was supposed to be a good guy and helping the younger talent too.

Mick foley The rock Daniel bryan Kane Undertaker R truth

Macho Man would have to be in that. He made his opponents look great, sold well, and put talent over. RVD too, considering how much friends he had backstage.

@TheVolourn Vince screwed him over

@@dean8705 I can't wait for all of the Vince screwing people over to come back on him at some point. And, with the way that stars are now in mass Exodus to AEW and, well, ANYWHERE else...it may be that time. Hell, he's even screwed up the best thing that they had in NXT. And, in turn, screwing over HHH's hard work.

@@jasonschwartz9481 He'll never pay for it. He's basically handed the reins to the next generation anyway, and he's got so much money that the organization could shut down tomorrow and wouldn't affect his quality of life. His ego maybe, which is huge, but that's it.

@@andrewbrady2626 Andre or Warrior?

Man she was really beautiful despite all the trash

You know. I despised xpac and hated on him for years. Now that i found out he took a dump in that worthless waste of a roster spot Sables bag, i like him now.

You forgot to also mention Abdullah giving someone Hepatitis C from his antics

Also not giving a shit about doing it either. No remorse shown. Loads of other wrestlers shoot on Abdullah for good reason

I came to say this, how did it not get mentioned as a end result?

Whats really ridiculous is, 9 times out of 10 the stories told about him are how he's a piece of shit but when talking about his murder he's made out to be a saint. That type of shit is so annoying.

@First Last No?... Did you not read where I said that the stories that people who did know him told, are about him being a complete asshole? I mean jesus dude either don't ignore shit or focus on comprehension of what you read.

@@chrishigh4113 I take it someone deleted their comment after you made them feel foolish? Lol. Kudos sir.

@@jasonschwartz9481 LOL I guess so. I have no idea haha

Or maybe the Curtain Call

Goldberg and Jericho is one of their favorite topics. I skip ahead when they start talking about it for the millionth time.

That spit was just 😫😫😫

How about dropping the undertaker on his head. He literally almost killed two of the greats. He basically prematurely ended Harts career. The Jericho story is there. I actually love how undervalued Jericho was at one point. As soon as Michaels retired for the first time I Jericho became my go to. And, man, his first day in WWE, with The Rock, showed how great he would become. Back then the WWE knew what to do with other company's talent. Jericho, Eddie, Benoit, Saturn, Malinko, The Dudley's. Unfortunately when they had an entire roster but out...it was too much talent at once.

Yeah I like when Abdullah make Hogan busted open.

He also refused to wrestle Vader at times, said he stank, and constantly berated him.

If Vader were less professional, he probably could've ended Shawn's career then and there.

So true, that beast could just grind Shawn to powder

@@aniketprasad3128 You mean "grate" him into powder, right? Get it?

What is crazy is that while Vader was stiff as shit in the ring he was a big softy outside of it.

I remember at a younger age whenever I heard the name "Bruiser Brody" I always thought he was Luke Harper aka Brodie Lee

Same though what Aries did when he was in Impact last time was extremely unprofessional on his part. It wasn't like he was losing to some random jobber that suddenly got slingshotted into the main event picture.

Brodie Lee never actually took his name from Bruiser Brody, he took his name from a character in a Kevin Smith movie (said as much on an appearance he made on Jericho's podcast)

@@scottbreon9448 good to know

Its was Eddie not chavo

JBL is cool.

@@grungil7570 Yeah, if we pretend like Blue Meania and tons of other accidents didn't happen, he is.

When Goldberg snaps someone in half and beats them easily, he makes you believe he just destroyed his opponent. He may have a limited moveset but he makes everything he does look real and devastating. His great talent as a wrestler is criminally underrated. That ability to make kayfabe look genuinely believable is what sets the best apart from the rest, and make no mistake, Goldberg is one of the best of all time.

@@namikstudios he just got pushed too quickly. As an athlete- he’s among the best ever big boys. I’ve always heard how nice the man is. Never understood the negativity.

​@@namikstudiosreally easy to make it look real when you're actually being real lmao Goldberg is a beast of a dude but a trash wrestler

Number 5 : Shawn Michaels Number 4 : Shawn Michaels Number 3 : Shawn Michaels Number 2 : Shawn Michaels Number 1 : Shawn Michaels

Don't you remember, he was one of the Fabulous Rugohs, with Reymunn Rugoh??

"Mom, can we get Jacques Rougeau?" "No. We have Jock Rugoh at home."

The fact that Brits have such a hard time with the English language is pretty infuriating.

Regault?

Kind of reminds me of when Demolition used to call them the Ragu Sisters in their promos

And no one likes working with his nephew Alberto Del Rio

The problem with Mil Mascaras was that he refused to SELL for anyone who was NOT a LUCHADOR and even then he only sold for them when they were top draws. Yes, Alberto is a POS too, but at least he didn't no-sell most of his opponent's moves. Alberto is/was a great worker, too bad he's a total piece of shit as a human being.

Because he buried them

I guess it was another era entirely, working with Hogan meant usually being a short less of a main eventer, because of course Hogan did not lose his time on jobbers and nobodies, he wanted to bury other performers that could contest his dominance. So, let apart the obvious implications of being the sacrifical lamb of the night or eventual punishments, being in the same ring with Hogan, even for squash matches, usually meant money and spotlights.

That's the thing, hulk though he was still in 80s

Exactly, who hates working with a guy that makes you more money

Ridiculous really. Hogan went off the rails in WCW but for a decade he had every single live audience in the palm of his hand every single night, and people want to work with that.

Right simons the only one we want

punk was nice to people backstage but everyone hated him for no reason

Punk's problem were mostly with management, he actually tried to help and promote talent he worked with, be it the Nexus, Straight Edge Society or even Daniel Bryan and others.

what about The Rock?

@@grungil7570 you mean Dwwwaayyyne

It really says a lot when I read that Cena was among the people that CM Punk actually liked.

That was when I realised how scripted wrestling was. Sting and Flair had hell with Vader. Vader would squash Shawn Michaels easily in WCW or Japan but in the WWE he was literally jobbing to him.

Correct. They didn't have a problem working with him. They hated being backstage around him. Hell, even Bret Hart admits he never had a problem in the ring with Shawn.

Yes. Taker said he hated hbk in the 90s. But he loved working with him in the ring.

As an younger fan that didn't see Michaels matches in real time; going back and seeing Michaels' matches, I can only say that he had amazing chemistry with every freaking body. Whether he was fighting a giant, or the match against Mysterio Jr. for Eddie Guerrero's remembrance--Michaels had an amazing rhythm in sync with anyone who was in the ring with him. Really one of the greatest INSIDE the ring. Backstage is another story.

@@jamjox9922 as someone who did see it...he's probably the best I've ever seen in the ring. Only others that can touch him are guys like Styles, Undertaker, Bryan, Eddie (the closest), Hart and Benoit. Maybe Rollins when he's engaged. He was as good on the mic, and at telling a story, as CM Punk. He could work any pace and style. The ladder match with Hall was amazing in the fact that it really was Shawn against a Ladder and Razor was the prop. I know this is long. But, with the lower back pain he was in, even upon his comeback...he never once put on a bad match or did it half hearted. To me, undertaker is the GOAT because of his leadership and other things. But, the fact that the Undertaker was willing to end Shawn's career over a two year program, tells you about his respect for him. Michaels is still the GOAT inside the ring.

Right? He just didn’t want to lose…which is whatever to me?? He was by far the biggest star I don’t think he should’ve lost very often either tbh. He knew his worth.

@@balance1619 I’d love to lose to hogan lmao , main event spot , nice pay day and if you put on a good match you might get yourself over OR get another match with him and eventually go over .

Hogan was arrogant and almost always insisted on winning. Horrible person.

Yeah but MOST did not. And rightly so because he was giant 3 year old about everything, a sore loser, self absorb, didnt want to lose to anyone because he thought he was the best, an ignorant and a racist. He wasn't even that good, especially compared to the athleticism of people like the Undertaker, British Bulldog and Ultimate Warrior - basically any who he tried to hold back. That leg drop thing he did was pathetic as well. Nothing but a ketchup and mustard flamingo looking wasteman.

​​@@balance1619 Losing is part of the job. Remember it's scripted. It's alright not to want to lose in terms of competition but the way it works, there's a storyline and a plans to follow. He really wasn't even that good.

rvd's attire with goldberg's baldness

both on this list hmm coincidence?

He was a favorite of mine. Too bad his ego was bigger than his brains.

Well, the same guy who designed RVDs wrestling attire also designed Ryback's

Actually many say he is a good dude and love working with him and yeah there is a couple of bitter talent who don't but it's mainly the fans who twist rumors and stories about what he said or what he did

@@GoneXX2 or it's words from the non bitter former talent that brings things to the light

@@GoneXX2 i doubt 3 people have ever said that about him in his entire life

@@theSANDMAN366 big show, samoa joe, christian, samoa joe, EC3, john cena,shawn michaels,bret hart, stone cold, the rock, cm punk even gave him props, by my count that's more than 3 people

theSANDMAN366 the women who was assaulted by him in the nail salon

They are quite intense, thats for sure.

People liked Steiner because he was always willing to use his math skills to help them balance their checkbooks.

Sure, but I’d say that getting stabbed to death by someone who every other wrestler on the scene not named Tony Atlas was willing to cover for us a pretty good sign you aren’t liked

Seemed too stubborn and ruthless tbh.

Holy shit, for real?

Well that's what Taker talked about in his interview about today's wrestlers being soft

@@ananyaraizada7657 Taker? Come on, now! We’re talking hardcore now. Different animal

Lmao 😂 that's embarrassing for them

Plus, Shawn had a long-term partnership with Marty Janetty when they were The Rockers.

To be fair who does mick foley doesn’t like

@@painvillegaming4119 if I had to pick one it would possibly Rick Flair. In his book he referred to Mick Foley as a 'Glorified Stuntman'. Foley addressed his grievances with Vince. Flair got upset upon hearing about it and when he saw Foley Backstage he attacked him.

So true🤣

You spoke facts so hard I can see 30 years in the future

When was shawn good?

I think you mean spiking himself on the apron

@Bryan Robinson Yeah, because a few centimeter of mat covering the concrete floor can prevent him from cracking his skull during that botch. But I admit that his head could have hit the ring apron instead of the floor.

@@Hacksaw_HIM_Thuggin Yeah, might be remembering that botch wrong. Ryback did still save him from spiking his head though.

@Bryan Robinson so you're saying a helmet is the same thing as a plastic mat with foam in it. It isn't.

@Bryan Robinson that...that’s not how physics work. I am not going to get into a debate about physics things in a darn youtube wrestling channel. My point is Ryback saved Kalisto from a dangerous botch.

Fucking bruiser brody too he's another of my dream matches

Patterson and Brisco, god bless them could never sell with stone cold. They always looked so awkward, but they damn well tried their best.

He was at the top for a relatively short time tho, and most viewers liked him at the time.

@@neilsun2521 Sure but the list isn't "10 Wrestlers Who Were On Top For A Long Time and Weren't Liked By Viewers," It's "10 Famous Wrestlers No One Liked Working With." He was a very famous wrestler that other wrestlers didn't like working with, so I think he's worthy of the list.

@TheVolourn Exactly, and also wrestling Hogan was akin to Conor McGregor's "red panty night" concept haha. You don't like the guy and have no particular interest in working with him because you think it'd be a great experience, but you know that a program with him will get you noticed and paid well, win or lose. This as opposed to an example like when Stone Cold said one of his favorite guys to work with was Savio Vega. He really didn't have anything to gain professionally from working with Vega, but he just enjoyed it. Guys don't enjoy working Hogan, they just enjoy the exposure and payday.

I'm kind of surprised that wasn't mentioned, at least in speculation.

Yea they should’ve added that it makes sense a little

Didn’t he nearly kill (or at least seriously injure) Undertaker? Fucking donut

Fun fact it was sting idea to bring him into the business

He wasn't bad at first. His problem was that as he got bigger, he was relying on certain main eventers like Hulk Hogan to navigate backstage politics. That was what really fanned the flames between the legitimate real life heat between him and Jericho in 98- according to both Jericho and Eric Bischoff.

Same as Ultimate Warrior

Especially in his last couple of years in the company.

Aries had problems everywhere he went. The only promotions he hasn't had a problem with are the ones he never worked for.

It's really sad to know what we know now. I can't think of anyone who didn't at least somewhat like him back in the day.

THE biggest, and the sad thing is he never matured or changed his ways.

Next to vince hhh and Shawn.

Goldberg being a main eventer I'm 2022 is absolutely a hindrance to the product, he's over 50 years old, I don't care what he was. He's not that now, and he never will be again.

😬 yeesh that got dark.

You might want to do your research on his murder. It had nothing to do with not liking to work with Brody.

I would have said Big Cass too, but he seems to have become a better person in recent years.

yep.

Tough as nails Vader finished the match too. That man was beyond human

Vader's eye WAS popped out. He popped it back in.

Best match I've ever seen.
