Hey all, I would like to re-ask the question whysoserious brought up earlier today: who are the greatest WWE wrestlers of all time? To clarify things a little, I'm going to rephrase it as 'Who are the Greatest WWE Wrestlers of the Wrestlemania Era?'

I'm going to collect ordered list from users, score them, and then post the results in a separate thread over the span of a couple weeks.

Here's what I need from you guys:

Please PM me your ordered list of greatest WWE wrestlers since 1985. You can submit as few as 10 names or as many as 20. I will score each list from 1 to 20 in reverse order. For example: if you have Steve Austin as number 1 and Ricky Steamboat as number 20, Austin would receive 20 points and Steamboat would receive 1. If you only give me a list of 10, number 1 would still receive 20 points and number ten would receive 10 points.

Also, I would like volunteers to do a write-up for individual wrestlers. As each wrestler is revealed, the write-up will be included with the post. Please inform me if you would like to do a summary when you send me your list, as well as who you would like to write about. It can be as short or as long as you'd like.

So what's in it for you, besides the wonderful feeling of online participation? Prizes! Check this out:

Whoa! Right? Really cool. Many thanks to HMFFL.

So here's how to win:
If you submit a list, you will be entered to win a WWE Crew T-Shirt in whatever size you need.
If you submit a wrestler summary, you will be entered to win an additional WWE Crew T-shirt!

It's that easy, dudes.

The deadline to enter will be 23:59 on September 19th. On the 20th, I'll tabulate the results and release them over the following couple of weeks.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask in this thread.

Cheers!

I'm in. I'll try to get my list to you tomorrow, as well as a summary for 1 of them. Really want one of those shirts.

I'm in, though I didn't actually post that thread, someone else started it and seems to have deleted their post.

Just submitted my list.

Thanks Ozzy!

Just submitted my list.

Appreciate the lists so far.

Just want to reiterate that we're looking for 'Greatest WWE Wrestlers of the Wrestlemania Era.' I've had a bunch of lists with Sting on them, which is fine if you really liked that match with H, but probably not what you were thinking.

Submitted a new list to remove the pre-1985 guys.

Not that I had many to begin with.

I have 5 interesting lists so far. Lots of general agreement at the top. 1 through 5 is going to be very close.



Hoping you guys throw me a list! (And anyone I missed)

Just finished completing my top 10!

I'll submit mine, likely tomorrow.

Just sent my list in.

I'm doing my list today. We lost power to the office yesterday so that put a delay on my "work" here.

Any list that doesn't include James Ellsworth should immediately be disqualified.

Agreed

Just submitted my list of 20.

If it's not too much work, rather than doing just a top 10 or 20, I'd love to see a full list just to see who all received votes.

Also, after the results we should all post ours individually. I'm anxious to see who I forgot or overlooked.

I'm keeping all the data on a google spreadsheet. I'll publish it when we're done.

Yup, just because we only submitted 20, doesn't mean we won't end up with a potential top 40 or so.

Lots of wrestlers will only get a couple of votes, so they'll likely fall well outside of the top 20.

Sent my list. Interesting that most of my list comprised of guys who hit their prime during or after the Attitude Era.
