The Ultimate Warrior

Height: 6'3"
Weight: 275lbs
Born: 16/6/1959, Crawfordsville, Indiana

Highlights:

WWF Intercontinental Champion x 2
WWF Heavyweight Champion

One of the influx of body-builder into pro-wrestling in the mid to late 80's. Although not great in-side the ring, The Warrior hit the limelight, and fans loved him.

Although we never quite knew what he was saying during his promo's, we all sort of stood back and said ok, we will go with that.

He had an ultra successful feud with Hulk Hogan, and will always be remembered in the wrestling seen due to a documentry known as "The Self Destruction of The Ultimate Warrior. Possibly the most disliked wrestler of all time by his peers.

Round 1 The Ultimate Warrior defeated Owen Hart 7-0

Eddie Guerrero

Started out with the ECW, but then crossed to WCW where he had some singles success.

He then later crossed to WWF with 3 of his best friends. After he came out of the shadows of Chris Benoit, Guerrero made his name in WWF/E and had some great singles success. He finally captured the WWE Championship.

Unfortunately Eddie was found dead in 2005, an amazing Raw followed with many tributes.

Eddie Guerrero has gone from Superstar of wrestling to Legend since, and was recently inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Round 1 Eddie Guerrero defeated Edge 7-5

I will buck the likely trend and choose Warrior.

Simply because I was at the right age where his bursting on to the scene and having a face/face feud with Hogan in such electrifying fashion is etched in my memory.

I guess I appreciated Eddie more once he was gone and have never been a huge fan of smaller wrestlers overcoming power wrestlers (unless the power wrestlers are too big to bloody move). Eddie is the consummate Intercontinental/US champion type for mine. Although I am glad he got to hold the big one once.

Billy Graham started out in the then WWWF. He defeated all-time great Bruno Sammartino for the Heavyweight Title.

After some time he defected to the NWA scene with success, before returning to the WWF.

Graham was forced into retirement after he needed a hip replacement. He made a comeback after the replacement, but to no real effect. It had to much strain on his body.

Later Graham was inducted into the hall of fame.

One of the most celebrated wrestlers in history, Stone Cold is based on a red neck who takes no crap from nobody, and plays it well.

Started out with a little success in the WCW, before crossing to WWF and pitching the Stone Cold persona, and becoming an instant superstar.

After an extremely successful run, and the greatest feud in history, Stone Cold bowed out due to neck and back injuries.

Round 1 Steve Austin defeated Bobby Lashley 7-0
