Sports Illustrated's "20 Greatest WWE Wrestler's of All Time" List

[@haydenmcqueen2503]

Every wrestling fan has a top 20 of 35 different wrestlers.

[@jeffreyring1012]

Yes but in my case I have a top 4 and that's not likely to ever change

[@atto_3]

No Ric Flair is lowkey crazy too

[@Trollololololful]

Nothing lowkey about it.

[@PunkToledoGirl97]

This was a Top WWE list. Ric Flair was more of a NWA/WCW guy. Most of his career highlights weren’t in WWE.

[@Magic7ball]

he barely did anything in WWE

[@Xanwiththepod]

I thought it's crazy but he didn't appear till 2002 as a new general manager I remember him I was in elementary strutting and wooing🗣 but after evolution and he went to tna he came back kinda in 2007/08 I believe. It's still a crime but he doesn't have much time under his belt in wwe.

[@cliffjones9922]

​@@Xanwiththepod He first appeared in WWE in 1991

[@cameroncola]

12:31 I would love to see a stache club video like this! Deciding who the best in every category is

[@TruHeelHeat]

SP3: Appreciate you covering my list. Thanks for the takes and love the discourse

[@niloy2473]

Roman ahead of Taker, HBK, Bret is just STUPID.

[@smithswoodrookie]

Objectively the top 5 biggest wwe stars of all time (in no order) are clearly, Austin, Hogan, Rock, Cena & Taker. - not necessarily my personal favourite top 5.. but objectively

[@mafia_respect]

Taker was never THE GUY

[@Soberse]

My completely biased Top 5: 1. Stone Cold 2. John Cena 3. The Rock 4. The Undertaker 5. Shawn Michaels

[@PunkToledoGirl97]

My personal Top 5 who’ve made the biggest impact on me are 1. CM Punk 2. Shawn Michaels 3. Stone Cold Steve Austin 4. Kurt Angle 5. Eddie Guerrero/Bret Hart( I can’t chose between them for the fifth spot)

[@Soberse]

@@PunkToledoGirl97 Honestly, now that you mention it. Eddie might be my GOAT.

[@PunkToledoGirl97]

@ the fact that they don’t have Eddie Guerrero, Batista, or even Rey Mysterio on this list that to me is wrestling blasphemy. Also, I could care less about Hulk Hogan. Also with how much of a work horse he’s been working through injuries all the time I am absolutely shocked that Seth Rollins isn’t even on this list.

[@andrewcurtis8200]

Solid list and close to mine, I'd switch hbk and cena

[@RazorsxEdge]

Loving the solo content, man.

[@tinselpuff]

Randy is my GOAT for sure. His promos now, he's the only person I don't look at my phone while he's talking heh. He's having so much fun, he's still such an incredible athelete, he's still got years left. Not putting him over Gunther for an "old school", week-long run, I'll die mad about it.

[@xxMrWafflezz]

Good video. Solid takes my dude.

[@YOUNG_D20]

Yo what's up John big fan of you and all of the stach club crew, all y'all videos are dope 🔥

[@darcydeming8565]

same

[@ziggy071621]

Character, in ring, and what he did for the industry… gotta be Shawn at number one. Sorry Bret.

[@darcydeming8565]

i grew up in the 80s hogan was my first fav wrestler but as time went on macho man was just soooo great. i loved his macho king run w sherri as an adult HBK is my all time fav i watched his whole career i would have figured he may of been higher but u have a non wrestling magazine making a top 20 WWE list. i get it. LOVE THE VIDEO!

[@markula_4040]

Roman too high although hard to deny when he's main evented 8 of the last 9 Wrestlemanias and maybe all 9 if it wasn't for his Leukemia re-emergence. My biggest issue is Randy Savage at only 11. His impact and pop culture status clearly makes him top 10 if not top 5. Everyone knows who he is. Can't say the same for Bret, Shawn, Roman or even Undertaker.

[@bruceealmighties]

List Re-Ranked: 20. Becky Lynch 19. Roman Reigns 18. Randy Orton 17. Edge 16. Chris Jericho 15. CM Punk 14. Bruno Sammartino 13. Mick Foley 12. Rowdy Roddy Piper 11. Andre The Giant 10. Kurt Angle 9. Triple H 8. John Cena 7. The Rock 6. The Undertaker 5. Bret Hart 4. Shawn Michaels 3. Macho Man Randy Savage 2. Hulk Hogan 1. Stone Cold Steve Austin

[@clarkgraves5587]

1. Hogan 2. Austin 3. Cena 4. Rock 5. Taker 6. Roman 7. HHH 8. Orton 9. Michaels 10. Hart 11. Angle 12. Lesnar 13. Andre 14. Savage 15. Edge 16. Jericho 17. Kane 18. Mick Foley 19. Big Show 20. CM Punk

[@jeffreyring1012]

Can you and Dante do a top 20 Wrestlers all time. Just your opinion. You guys could do it as an alternative to a quiz and would be cool to see who you have the same and different. We know your 1s so I'd start there and go down to 20 to build suspense.

[@zonedoutshaquilleoneal1308]

These sorts of lists are always confusing because they're like sort of in kayfabe. I honestly prefer the lists to be "who was the best performer," not "what are their scripted credentials"

[@adrenochromejoe7448]

If I had to rank the list: 20. Becky 19. Jericho: Like him, but he was a midcarder for the most part. 18. Orton 17. CM Punk 16. Edge 15. HHH 14. Andre 13. Foley 12. Piper 11. Angle 10. Roman 9. Savage 8. HBK 7. Bret 6. Cena 5. Rock 4. Undertaker 3. Austin 2. Bruno 1. Hogan

[@chattchi2965]

Two views in two seconds bros coming up 😤

[@abovewater6918]

Pretty good list overall since these things are subjective. But yeah I would have put Taker 5, Michaels 6, Bret 7 and then Roman 8-10, with Orton also being in 8-10

[@ac8274]

What happened to the allegations against Jericho? It’s weird he’s still around, ngl

[@SohamBhattacharya3105]

Roman Reigns at 5 is just whack! And I doubt this list is kayfabe cause if it was then there would be no other option for number 1 other than Bruno. But he was 10th.

[@0xVon]

Wasn't it Sports Illustrated get exposed for a lot of their articles being written by AI? Only including 1 female and it being Becky, and then a Chris Jericho AEW photo on a WWE list feels like some things a human wouldn't have done lol.

[@MrCountdown210]

No Ric Flair, no Kane, no Dusty, no Rey, no Eddie, no Lesnar HBK at 8 and Undertaker at 6 is disrespectful Reigns at 5 is a joke

[@LukeMcKay22]

You're right. Taker shouldn't be in the top 40

[@PedroBenolielBonito]

Roman, Becky, but no Flair??? Also, surprised you weren't stanning for Rey to be on here.

[@jeffreyring1012]

Randy could go over Edge, I think they're both too low. They are both 2 of the top 3 heels from the Cena run. Edge was the first MITB cash in on Cena. Randy is possibly the 2nd best heel behind HHH over the last 20 years. I'd probably put Edge over Randy but I wouldn't argue against Orton over Edge.

[@djboy3275]

Ric Flair snubbed

[@kriskorner4588]

Flair anyone ?? Top 5 😂😂😂

[@zeospark9715]

Not sure if this is a hot take but Reigns shouldn't be no where near this list. They seriously put him over 'Taker who has been wrestling over 30 years? Reigns barely cracks 10 and even then, half those times he barely wrestles anymore.

[@0xVon]

You and Dante should make a list and have a podcast episode for it. You wanted everyone higher and kept throwing out more names that should be here, but someones gotta get cut then. Romans hard to rank because he's still active and there's a lot of nostalgia with other guys but he's main evented the most wrestlemanias ever, one of the longest championship reigns ever. Part of one of the best stables ever. I think he should totally be top 8 so you have to put him ahead of at least one of Bret/Shawn/HHH/Randy.

[@Res_Q1991]

I'm completely fine with this list, EXCEPT they have Becky Lynch on #20 and they didn't put ANY respect on Ric Flair!

[@cliffjones9922]

Number 20 - Becky Lynch List already redundant

[@gregorois9038]

Bret at 9 and no Flair? Everyone has their favorites but damn this list is whack

[@Gr33n247]

Shawn is #1

[@geographygreg1091]

becky is the number 1 women wrestler ever, lita and trish come nowhere close. only debatlable one is charlotte

[@evandercampbell886]

you should react to another paper view !

[@sabari6796]

John Cena top 3 easily

[@KervinAbreu-q4y]

where shawn Michael Kurt angle and more

[@AccursedHawk]

These lists are always so stupid lol there is no definite greatest wrestlers of all time list it’s literally all opinionated. All they do is just make people argue lol

[@stuffingtonjfluffypantsiii]

That's the point. To piss people off so they make videos like this to argue.

[@brennenhumphrey6300]

Edge and piper above Randy is kind of crazy

[@Hatedlexx]

My top 5 1. Kendrick 2. Kendrick 3. Kendrick 4. Kendrick 5. Kendrick

[@gerrymack88]

Austin 1 no complaints here

[@LucotIC.]

Roman is so overrated. I know he's good but he's not GOAT top 5 type of good.

[@UltimateFarmer007]

Tbh He is

[@LucotIC.]

@@UltimateFarmer007 no

[@Ac87269]

This list was Horrible imo

[@vct454]

Taker and Randy are both criminally low, both should be top 5. If they're not including Ric Flair then they should be 2 and 3 behind Cena.

[@user-sf9mp4xu7i]

John throwing shade at Hogan and Babe Ruth in the same sentence is some mad disrespect. Young pup or not, you should recognize greatness.
