The Baltimore Sun Top 20 Wrestlers: Real Men Do 500

 

Hhh_web_medium 


Over at the Baltimore Sun, blogger Kevin Eck has made his own list in response to Pro Wrestling Illustrated's yearly list of the 500 best wrestlers in the world.  While Eck surely means well, the whole fun of the PWI list is seeing which long retired wrestlers make it and which skinny local jobbers are going to fill the 300-500 spots.  Any jerk can make a top 20.  Here is one such list.

1. TRIPLE H
2. JOHN CENA
3. EDGE
4. RANDY ORTON
5. STING

6. JEFF HARDY
7. CHRIS JERICHO
8. THE UNDERTAKER
9. SAMOA JOE
10. KURT ANGLE

11. BATISTA
12. CM PUNK
13. THE BIG SHOW
14. REY MYSTERIO
15. SHAWN MICHAELS

16. A.J. STYLES
17. VLADIMIR KOZLOV
18. MATT HARDY
19. BOOKER T.
20. JEFF JARRETT


It was very brave of him to include no foreign or Indy talent.  Very brave indeed.  At least PWI gave this guy a moment to share with his grandkids.  While lists are by their nature subjective, allow me to say that this list is the worst of all such lists.
