HBK is the best professional wrestler of all time.
Best technician.
Most charismatic.
Best in-ring psychology by FAR.
Best look.
Bret marks can go suck a dick.
I agree
I agree

It's almost a tie at who drew lower ratings as champ.
>>1351290
HBK is GOAT
>>1351300
true and he already anointed the next GOA+T.
>>1351290
Hey Shawn, shouldn't you be shilling for Roman?
I agree
>>1351318
fuck off Bretcuck
>>1351290
Please watch some other wrestling companies than the WWE or WCW.
Do so for a year and then come back here and see if you have the same opinion.
>>1351321
>Outlaw wrestling is where all the best wrestlers are
>>1351321
Howdy, Bret! How's the weather in Calgary this time of year?
>>1351326
>using "hi [name]" for a wrestler who would have the opposite of this particular opinion
Bret has literally never watched any other wrestling than Stampede and WWE.
I agree
I wish HBK have gotten more title runs after his WHC run
>>1351321
>outlaw wrestling
>>1351328
He'd have to have watched at least some, given all the other companies he worked for.
>>1351353
he didnt want them, he wanted to have good matches and try to put help young guys.
HBGOAT was so talented that he made a fucking superkick look like a top tier finisher.
>>1351359
Doubt it. Might have caught a few minutes here or there but I bet he's never watched a complete Nitro from end to end.
Hbk is the best in ring performer.
Ric Flair is the GOAT
>>1351358
>>1351325
In 1996 when HBK was the face of the company WWF -was- outlaw wrestling.
>>1351390
There's a lot more to watching wrestling that just one show of one company. Even if he just paid attention to stuff he was there for, that's still something like a dozen different major promotions.
Best look? Close but no. Bret's no where near it either though
>>1351399
>that's still something like a dozen different major promotions.
Stampede Wrestling
WWC
NJPW
WWF
WCW
Five companies. That is not "something like a dozen".
In Bret's book he barely mentions anyone he wrestles in Japan, only mentions Misawa if I recall correctly.
>>1351411
Bret was also an NWA territory guy before going to the WWF and did stints with a number of the Japanese super-indies of the 90s like SWS. That adds about another five or six promotions to his resume.
>>1351418
I can recall now him mentioning being in WCCW, but that's about it.
I was not familiar with him in SWS, or even know anything about the company at all. Going by the attendance numbers I see on dailymotion videos it seems a little bigger than an independent.
>>1351437
He was in WCCW, Georgia, Florida and Memphis that I know of. Possibly one or two more but I wouldn't swear to it.
SWS drew decent numbers (biggest attendance: ~35,000 at the Tokyo Dome, usually around 2.5-3.5k for smaller events with a few absolutely dire draws) but died quickly because it was throwing WWF style money around to get established and then lost its backer when the economy continued shitting itself.
>>1351394
Must have been some Outlaw promotion to get a 4.7 rating
>>1351452
There's real wrestling and outlaw wrestling right? WCW was where the big boys play.
>>1351453
Not until the nWo angle started, and Shawn was the face of WWF before that
>>1351290
Shawn's alpha mentality is whats missing from today's wrestling. Guys are too comfortable. We need more big dick bullies like HBK
>>1351457
He could get away with it because there was always WCW and ECW. Nowadays you have to go to Japan to make big bucks if you're not in WWE.
>>1351460
>ECW
>Big money
>>1351453
Look at the adjective: Play
We ain't here to play
>>1351457
>alpha
>little bitch that faked injuries to get out of matches
pick one
>>1351465
Paul Heyman is one of the biggest Michaels marks on earth. Shawn would have swindled him big time
>>1351469
>alpha
>picking your spots
pick two, mark
>>1351471
>thinking Heyman had money
kek
>>1351477
he paid the top guys. it was the upper midcard and lower who got screwed.
>>1351290
>those serratus muscles
HNNNNG
>>1351290
Shawn Michaels isn't even the best professional wrestler in The Rockers.
