I tried to make sure mine was pretty well balanced, but it still probably leans a little heavy in that era as well.

I'll be in Minnesota until Monday night, so I won't be checking RealGM that often. If you want to do a write up for a wrestler (it doesn't have to be long - just something I can include with the post) you can just pm it to me while I'm away. I only have 1 so far, so I'm hoping to get a bunch before I get back.

Thanks all!

Am I really the only person that did a write up? That was the most fun part for me. Get on it, fellas!

Just re submitted my list with write ups for each guy. Can't wait to see the results.

Still need written summaries for just about every guy in the top 20 (which has been calculated and is ready to go, if I don't receive any additional lists before Raw is over). The alternative is a patently less-than-spectacular writer (me) doing a lousy job of it.

I just submitted mine. I fought my bias from my peak watching years (Hulkamania-era) throughout that list.

I can write a summary or two. Not a pro, but I can get some stats, career highlights.

One other option would be to produce the list based on all the submissions, post it and then ask people to pick someone for a writeup. Based on our individual lists, you could see a bunch of write-ups on the same guy where all of us don't know who anyone else is doing a writeup for.

I can save all of you guys some time and just tell you that I had The Million Dollar Man in my top 20 and did a few paragraph write up on him. Not sure if he would have gotten enough votes to make the top 20 but I think it's a no brainer.

I have only received submissions from two people! There's no danger in doubling up at this point.

I wanted to start revealing these one-by-one tomorrow and I wanted the list to be a surprise. If I just post the whole thing, it eliminates all the drama.

Sorry I didn't watch during the attitude era. I was a WCW guy, and I stopped watching for about 15 years. I just started watching at the WrestleMania that Bryan won.

I did a write up of all 20 of my guys, but it reads editorial style. Not sure if you were looking more bio style.

Originally I was thinking bio-style, but I like what you gave me.

I'm going to do the draw for the first t-shirt tonight and then the second one after the reveal is over. Stay tuned!

I'm writing some summaries to give you something to work with (in case there isn't enough to go off of). I welcome some editing but I at least want to help you a little bit. I also noticed that I skipped #9 in my list, so I'll get that to you. I'll try to put another couple of hours into this so you can have it by 10:30ish tonight, if that works.

The results are done. I just moved every up a spot and put the first of your honourable mentions at the 20 spot.

#20 is posted! i made a new stickied thread for the results.

You missed probably the greatest overall era of wrestling.
