FRANK GOTCH

Qualifying Credentials:WWE Hall Of Fame (2016)

Legitimately considered one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, certainly during the pioneer days. Defeated George Hackenschmidt for the World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship in 1908, and held the title for five straight years. Retired as the champion in 1913. W-L Record said to be 154-6



Qualifying Credentials:WWF Champion (1988), WWE Hall Of Fame (1993)

All-time legend won surprisingly few titles. Spent most of his career as a gentle giant, but turned villain against Hulk Hogan to become one of Hogan's biggest rivals. Rematch with Hogan in 1988 remains the most watched wrestling match in history. While the pinfall was controversial, Andre is credited as a former champion. Inaugural inductee into the WWE Hall Of Fame.
