ITT the peak year of a wrestler

Roman Reigns:

>>2400434
Gaytch's peak year was 2000 imo, wasn't fat, great matches constantly, unexploded quads

>>2400457
in ring yes, but always felt his promos weren't that great until the 2005 feud against Batista and the split with Ric

>>2400454
2014, probably when it's all said and done and he's failed to become the top guy

>>2400467
Oh definitely, I think 2005 is his 2nd best year, but for me the strengths in '00 are greater than '05

>OP believes this was Gaytch's "peak"
To be fair, I'm not really certain he ever had one.

AJ Styles: 2016
Kenny Omega: 2018
Calling it now.

>>2400434
It may not have been his peak year, but 2015 was the year I finally came around to enjoying Cena. His US title run was GOAT.

>Styles
>2016

No, it was 2014. Signing to WWE was a mistake.

>>2400434
Triple H 2000

>>2400496
much as I'd like to agree
>bullet club post prince devitt was shit
>aj won the wwe world heavyweight championship in his debut year
>that awesome feud with chris jericho
>y2aj, the best short-term tag team ever
>beat john cena clean as a whistle

>>2400501
WWE World title is trivial when the company has two of them.

Edge: 2006
Jericho: 2008
Jeff Hardy: 2009
Punk: 2011

>Jericho - 2017

>>2400503
Not when it's the only world title people care about.
>ketchup sash, relevant ever

>>2400434
> Hogan: 1990

The correct answer is 1987.

>>2400510
18+, Hogan was at his very best in Toronto

>>2400515
Dude packed the Silverdome with 436,907 paid attendance in '87. Slammed the big, stinky Giant and tore his lats right off of his bones.

HHH's peak year was 2000. And I say this as someone who considers him one of my least favorites ever, but 2000 Triple H cranked out classic after classic. It's a damn shame that he got so shitty after the quad injury.

Granted, he did have great matches after, but he was never the same.

>>2400535
just out of curiosity, what changed about his performances post-injury? did he just get slower?

>>2400454
I'd say when he was most over in his Shield days in 2013.
>>2400503
>comparing the inevitably to be merged galactic championshit to the WWE Championship

He bulked up too much in rehabbing for his return, which added to his already stunted mobility in ring.

See: Vegeta going full HGH against Cell

>>2400434
Austin: 2001
Rock: 2000
Haitch: 2000
Cena: 2015

This. '07 stands out because he went over everyone and their mother but in '15 his matches meant way more.

>>2400603
>he doesnt remember this
The Foley feud was the peak of the Legend Killer gimmick which was his peak as a wrestler

>>2400612
i dont remember the fucking rock being part of Wrestlemania XX, but i also remember the awesome Foley vs Orton hardcore match at Backlash

>>2400616
That's cause he spent half the match gassed out in the corner.

>>2400626

>Roman's peak being in 2013
Lol off yourself Broken Anonyshit

>>2400801
Rock sees the big bucks in Hollywood,so i doubt Roman/Rock would happen anytime soon,even though Roman/Rock would be interesting.

When would Reagals peak be? Even though the WWE passed him over somewhat, looking back at his WWE run made me realise how good he was at enhancing up and comers.Is it possible his peak is actually as a non-wrestler, but in NXT?

>>2401321
Regal as gatekeeper veteran in FCW/NXT was pretty based

>vs. Ambrose
>vs. Ohno
>vs. Cesaro

>>2400885
>Jasethy being the best in 2015

>>2400515
Hogan got jobbed to the god damn Ultimate Warrior because he was getting stale in 1990 dipshit

1985 or 1987 was his peak no fucking contest

>>2400454
Every year he outdoes himself so we don't know yet.
