Wrestlers you need to be sold on

18+ faggot

I need to be sold on Hulk Hogan

How did an orange man who always looked like he was at least 65 become the biggest wrestler of all time?

18 fucking +

Chef Boyardee brother

VIVA LA RAZA

I dunno man, his attitude, the high flying, his reputation as a good worker - it's entirely true that he was probably too hurt or medicated to be in a bunch of his matches, but he's definitely one of my favourites.

here's an early one

As for me, I've never understood why I need to give a shit about Ambrose.

Andre the giant

Yes I've seen the Stu Hansen match. Are there any other good ones?

Andre

Does he have any other matches like the one with Hansen?

Andre the giant

Seen Stu Hansen but are there any more like it?

>>1213214
He was very funny and entertaining. He had a cheat to win style, almost like a modern Ric flair, but won over with the crowd for humor. He was a people person.

>>1213221
He had a unique look to him, was a giant tall white guy who loved America and beat up non Americans like the iron shiek, and fat America ate it all up. He marketed himself well and had some success in Hollywood too, and was a draw for his over the top personality.

>>1213288
Motherfucker was just big. Still the WWFs biggest draw because he drew crowds to see this giant. Dude could also chug 120+ beers in one night. They were different times tho

There was a good Andre the Giant comic that illustrated his life and his experience in wrestling. It's really good, I highly recommend it.

People you need to sell me on;

Edge
Shemus
Great Khali
WWE between 2003-2011

>>1213413
>Edge
Charisma
>Sheamus
believable
>Ruthless Aggression era
if you look past the Cena and Orton over saturation it really wasn't that bad, especially Smackdown earlier on
>Khali
he's a big bloke

>>1213413
>edge
He was natural heel, he had the charisma of it, and he sure could deliver some of the entertaining matches, especially tlc and hardcore. Oh, and I like his spear. Try to look for his tlc match with christian vs the hardyz and dudley boys. [spoiler]he speared jeff hardy in the mid air from the ladder. Twice in a different occasion[/spoiler]. Also his hardcore match with foley [spoiler]where he speared foley into a burning table[/spoiler]

> WWE between 2003-2011
One of the most memorable era for me would be 2006-2007, with Edge rose to become no 1 contender, his feud with Cena (at his peak, I believe, where he was legitimately good face), ECW on night stand and the feud with RAW (RVD vs Cena was one of the best match back then) and the return of DX, completely with feud with Rated RKO.

I need to be sold on Christian , Matt Hardy and Sid

Sell me on Matt Hardy and Bret Hart

>>1213485
Christian is based as hell. I don't know how to help you. Check out his run in the Un-Americans

Fat Lardy is meh but he was apart of the greatest spotfest of all time.

Sid was pretty shit but young me marked when he won the title

Sasha Banks.

She's a good wrestler , but for some reason I can't get into her

Macho Man
Its just "let funny voice xDDD" as far as I know

Someone sell me on this guy because the jist of what I'm hearing is that he was a whiny midget asshole

>>1213214
>Eddie

>>1213413
>Edge

Here you go lads

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPasZ90HRog

>>1213214
Eddie is considered an all time great because he was a fantastic combination of a wrestler who knew his ring psychology/was very technical, had some cool high flying/acrobatic stuff, and had the charisma of a top face, too.

Other than the videos that other guy posted, I also highly recommend checking out his series of matches against Dean Malenko back in ECW, Black Tiger II (Eddie) vs The Wild Pegasus (Benoit) in NJPW, vs Rey Mysterio at Halloween Havoc, and his match against Edge in 2002 for some fun heel antics.

>>1213288
>>1213375
>>1213394
Andre The Giant, by the 80s and his WWE time, was nowhere near as good as his 70s time due to his condition taking a toll on him. The guy could actually wrestle at one point. Check out his matches vs Inoki; Inoki wins in one of them being like one of two matches which are the exception of the "undefeated" streak. Very clever matches too cuz Inoki looked TINY compared to Andre and he would try to do whatever he can to beat Andre.

>>1213413
>Edge
Well, initially he was okay, but then eventually became a pretty creative hardcore wrestler for quite some time, with the latter half of his career being a very crafty yet fun to watch heel character.

Won't say much for the other two except that 2003-05 WWE was still fine for the most of it thanks to Eddie, Benoit, Angle, basically Smackdown. Nobody liked RAW.

>>1213485
>Christian
Charismatic guy with half decent ring psychology with a few cool spots both in WWE and TNA

>>1213504
>Hart
One of the best workers of all time just for the sheer fact that he could make ANYONE look good. Read up on his shenanigans related to Tom Magee. The fact that Hart could carry someone who's that pathetic of a prowrestler to a legit match is damn respectable.

>>1213485
>>1213504
>Matt Hardy

http://www.matthardybrand.com/hate-mail.html

Press hate mail, keep pressing OK. Don't prevent dialogues. Have fun.

>>1213533
>Savage
Good wrestler, good on mic, great charisma combo

>>1213613
Basically everything he was bitching about was true but his overly arrogant outside the ring

Holy fuck this is a bad thread.

> Why are people into this guy? No I've never watched him.

>>1213613
>Everything I know about Punk comes from smarkbusters videos.

Imagine being this fucking dumb.

>>1213613
Watch his 2011 MITB leadup stuff and the promos, and that match.

Then proceed to imagine that being milked till not only the cow was dry, but the cow had squeezed out it's intestines through the udders and was now just squeezing out shit.

That is CM Punk. Really cool and stuff when he first started getting a push, then slowly downhill until they had to start digging a hole to keep going down.

Eddie became champion simply because he was that good. I'm pretty sure he would have went over Batista as well to become a two time champ.

Sasha Banks.

The intention was not to wallow in ones ignorance about a person but an attempt to garner greater knowledge from people with a wider knowledge of said wrestler in order to gain a greater understanding of them.

AJ Styles desu senpai. I've been decidedly unimpressed with him since he got to WWE.

>>1217768

Yeah all those mediocre matches with Jericho and godawful promos should have swayed me.

>>1214047
Just watch all her Takeover matches in chronological order.

Chris jericho, why the fuck where people ever high on him???

>>1217789
> mediocre matches with Jericho

Yeah that's really AJ's fault...

>>1217789
I don't get why people hate on those matches. They were good from a wrestling standpoint, even if they were stale from a thematic one.
I think people just need to look past the story and enjoy the actual display, because Jericho can still go pretty well. He's a little bit of a slouch, sometimes, but his mind is sharp enough and AJ is in peak condition.

>>1217886
The problem is that Jericho was clearly lagging behind and not in Styles's league.

>>1217896
He didn't need to be. AJ's good enough to make a match great on his own accord.
Jericho lagged behind but he wasn't a weighted ball-and-chain. He still has the in-ring acumen to let Styles do what he does without having to hamstring himself.

I've never seen the appeal of Samoa Joe. I find him just tolerable as a face and completely boring as a heel.

>>1217716
Everything he does in ring makes sense and tells part of the story. He was a founding father of one of the most influential groups of all of pro wrestling. He could go 60 minutes or over no problem and no complainants. He had a knack for making guys look better than they already were and his promo work in the NWA was prehaps the best in the world at the time(for a more serious side of wrestling at least).

>>1217775
Can't be helped then.

Lex Luger
Roman Reigns
Moose

Angle vs. Eddie at Mania has some of the best psychology of all time. Won't spoil anything, and I don't have a link, but you need to look that shit up before you say anything about Eddie Guerrero.

>>1220514
Is that the one where Angle works the ankle all match and then Eddie unties his boots to get out of the ankle lock?

>>1220516

lol, yeah, I said I wasn't going to spoil anything, but that's the one

But that is just a straight up lie

>>1221337

Stop hiding how underage you are

>Top kek @ people saying, "SELL ME ON THIS GUY BY POSTING 5 STAR MATCHES HE'S HAD"

What sells you on people isn't the matches they've had, it's watching them week in and week out and seeing them progress to getting better and reaching the pinnacle.

I dont need to rationalize myself to anyone as to why Kurt Angle is great by posting his top 5 matches, though I can, but you need to actually go and watch his entire career to truly get it.

>>1221398
>overrated
Nobody considers them good apart from having a cool intro.

>>1221398
>Angle vs. Eddie at Mania
Don't bother.

Every NAO match ever:
>Oh you didn't know?
>Road Dogg gets beat down for 3/4 of the match
>HOT TAG
>Billy Gunn rallies
>They win or lose, who gives a shit you're just here to chant along with them. See Enzo and Cass as an example.

You need to sell me on Eddie, Rey Mysterio, Batista and Undertaker

>>1222178
Taker's image and gimmick is his biggest selling point with his foot notes being his size, agility, and timing. Watch through some rivalries like him and Shawn at 25/26 and Shawn in the 90s, him and Edge, some Ministry stuff, him and Austin

Eddie was always oozing with personality when given the chance, watch some promos and matches to them

Rey just can fly in ring with ease,always sold well and could be tossed around well because of his size, watch some Nitros

sell me on Finn

I don't see much to him other than the meme paint and boring stomp finisher
