There's no such thing as a flawless wrestler. Not even Danielson.

That's true but my point is there are obvious flaws with Punk.  Offense wouldn't even be my top pick, as I think being the most blatant spot caller in wrestling is far worse.


Still I think he clearly had a "number one" resume

As an epilogue, a link to my ballot and blurbs for everyone I voted for who didn't make it. I encourage everyone to post their ballots too if they're so inclined and give some blurbs if they want.

I am a pretty big Cena fan - actually probably the biggest defender around in terms of his quality as a worker - but "CM Punk's offense is shit therefore he can't be the best in the world" and "Cena is far and away the best in the World" are not two ideas that work together.  I "buy" Cena's offense for the most part because of how it is sold, but as a whole it is pretty much dogshit

Cena's punches look way better. He mixes in body punches, it's a small thing but it makes a difference.

I am a guy who puts a lot of stock in quality punches, but if we are rating by punches Lawler is number one and everyone else can fuck off.

i'm just sayin'.  this is based on 2011 work so posting anything from 2012 is irrelevant.  based on many of your responses, i'm still not sure you understand what this thread is about.

He does he's just a piss poor troll.


Troll with learning disability has been his gimmick for years.  Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.  But we love him no matter what

I'm going to start a thread about best punchers. I want to know who the greats were.

Thanks man. I think.

I'm cross trolling.

I really do legitimately have issue with CM Punk being the #1 wrestler in the world, but I don't watch enough wrestling to know who else is great out there. I did think that Bryan blew him away in their short Cruiser style match on Raw not that long ago.

From what limited stuff I watch(pretty much just Raw), I'd say that DB was the best in the WWE if you're talking purely actual fake grapple ability. That's as far as my rassle watching goes. I'd say Ziggler was a close #2. His selling is so Mr. Perfect levels, maybe even better (hear me out) simply because he sells in a cartoonish way but it still looks good. It's kind of like The Rock or Hall selling a Stunner, it was corny as hell, but it made you get into the move for that split second before the bitter internet wrestling fan took over and you started to think about how overselling hurts the feel... know what I mean?

But Cena is the #1 overall package. I don't think anyone else could have pulled off the Mania thing with The Rock, I don't think anyone else would have had the impact if they did the Brock thing.

Oh, the cross trolling was me messing with TH about his MOTY thread taking a while.

For real though, is there a reason you don't have Ziggler or did you just forget about him?

wtf?  i didn't forget about him when i was putting my list together because i specifically remember ranking him.  i don't understand why he's not there.  he definitely should be.  iirc, he should be between christian and sheamus.

I am still mystified by the pro-AJ Style sentiment in 2011.
