What you loved:
- Look - With the mask, long hair, and full bodysuit it was hard to not notice the guy.
- In-Ring - Able to adapt to multiple styles, had classic matches with Brian Pillman and The Great Muta.
- Shooting Star Press - An amazing move, that he innovated.
- Name - The name alone was getting 5's from you guys.
- All-TIme Greats - One of the best ever, holding multiple titles, an innovator, and popularizing the Cruiserweight division in the U.S.
Best comment comes via Phil X:
"Anything less than five is just criminal. There shouldn’t even be a poll attached to this."

What you loathed:
- No WWE - Unfortunately his U.S. exposure was limited by never getting to the WWE. Not to say his run - Creatively - would have been too amazing with WWE's track record, a short run would have been cool to see.
- Brain Tumor - Somehow, he worked through having one, eventually getting surgery. Afterwards, Liger had to change up his style to lessen the toll wrestling took on his body.
- MMA Fight - Probably best to stick with pro wrestling.

"That I used to think his name was Justin, now Justin Liger will forever be how he is known in my mind."
