He was next on my list. No word of lie.

Let's see it!

No rules against doubles!

I'd rate thiese guys too but I'm not enough of a wrestlign geek to pull it off.

[Kuzzy Powers]

After work ill bang out a few more random ones.

[Kuzzy Powers]

Charles Wright aka Papa Shango, aka Kama Mustafa, aka The Godfather

Physical Appearance / Look / Character - 8/10 What look and character did not work for this guy? Just solid in anything he did, even if he never got a huge push.

Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 6/10 Got over huge as The Godfather but his mic work was limited to only a few lines. But he was very able to do good work on the stick.

In-Ring Work - 7/10 He gets this high a rating from me because he was a pretty big dude and he could still go pretty damn good in the ring. Good use of kicks/knees that arent used enough in wrestling.

Total - 21/30

Marty Jannetty

Physical Appearance / Look / Character - 5/10 Generic looking guy decked out in multi coloured jump suit that atleast catches the eye?


Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 4/10 I dont recall Marty talking much but when he did make a few appearances later in his career and got minor stick time he was pretty poor.


In-Ring Work - 7/10 No complaints here. Marty was pretty damn solid in the ring, if nothing else.

Total - 16/30

[Kuzzy Powers]

Ahmed Johnson


Physical Appearance / Look / Character - 8/10 If anything Ahmed Johnson looked the part. Ripped to shreds and black as the night sky.


Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 3/10 Brutal promos that are only topped by his BRUTAL ring work.


In-Ring Work - 1/10 One of the stiffest guys ever in the ring. Lucky if you got out of the match without an injury. He got 1 point for having a pretty cool finisher.

Total - 12/30

Kelly Kelly

Physical Appearance / Look / Character - 9/10
In women's wrestling, you're either great fap material or a monster (Awesome Kong, Chyna, etc). Kelly Kelly knows her role...

Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 5/10
... and shuts her mouth. She gets points here because clearly her look does sell.


In-Ring Work - 1/10
I give her a one, because she wears some nice costumes that I like and I rarely turn away when she's on screen. That's more than I can say about a lot of wrestlers.

15/30

[Kuzzy Powers]

Raven

Physical Appearance / Look / Character - 8/10 Grungy looking loner who played the part to a tee. Really could not look any better for the character then Raven.


Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 9/10 Maybe a little high but personally IMO Raven has some of the best promo work ever.

In-Ring Work - 7/10 Raven has put on some very memorable matches to me, and has never been a slouch in the ring at all IMO. His hardcore work has always been highly entertaining aswell.

Total - 24/30

Nick Bockwinkel

Physical Appearance / Look / Character - 9/10
He just looked and acted like a champion. Very believeable in every way.

Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 10/10
Never had to shout or brag to get his point across. An erudite guy who somehow didn't come across as condescending.


In-Ring Work 9/10
He's from an era before the spot monkeys, so obviously he's not going to be as exciting as a Jeff Hardy, foolhardy as Mick Foley or a high flyer like Rey Mysterio. But, for his time, Bockwinkel was a damn good worker. If he has a fault, it's that he wrestled most of his career in the AWA.

28/30

[EmpireWF]

The Mountie

Appearance/Look/Character - 8/10 - Had the full mountie get-up and looked like a legit Canadian authority.

Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 6/10 - He was always colorful on the mic and while he was no Stone Cold, he always got his man.

Working Ability - 6/10 - No doubt, he was an effective in-ring guy, but he wasn't asked to do much in the Mountie gimmick. Jacques Rougeau could sell an ass-kicking with the best of them though.

20/30

[EmpireWF]

Big Bossman

Appearance/Look/Character - 7/10 - His late 80s-early 90s cop outfit was the most colorful (obviously, WWF at the time was all about characters). He was HUGE early on, probably well north of 400 pounds. Then whatever he did, he lost most of the fat and looked in great shape around 1992. When he came back in the late 90s, he was in good shape for an older guy but was in all-black like a security guard. He alway had the nightstick which was one of the best "international objects" back then. Plus, he was a legit corrections officer or some shit and that as his back story was cool.

Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 7/10 - Whenever he talked, he sounded like a legit bad motherfucker.

Working Ability - 5/10 - You don't think of Ray Traylor as being anything special as a worker, but he was actually pretty damn good. He could move around well when he was bigger and when he slimmed down, he had that fire you need as a babyface. Some points off because at the end, he was a bit boring.

19/30

[dave]

I'd give him an 8 on the mic and 7 on the work. I always thought WWF Bossman was a good worker ... especially for a guy that size.

Arn Anderson

Physical Appearance / Look / Character - 9/10
OK, he wasn't the most cut wrestler of all the time, the biggest or the tallest ... but he was a man's man and very believeable.

Ability to Talk/Sell Yourself - 9/10
A great talker and believeable. As a heel, he could get over because fans related to his mic work and look.


In-Ring Work 6/10
Arn to me is the HHH before there was a HHH. Some people like that ground-style, I'm not a big fan myself. Arn's work was good, but his best work was on the mic.

Conclusion:
At the end of the day, AA is a Hall of Famer all the way. He had it.
Sidenote: I really should have put a conclusion for all my wrestler rankings.

24/30

[Kuzzy Powers]

6/10 in the ring for AA is a travesty..

6/10 in the ring for AA is a travesty..

Sorry man. But I find the pure ground style wrestling boring. I love Arn Anderson, don't get me wrong.
