WOW, narrowing this down to 3 is damn near impossible.



1.Hulk Hogan: I was still mark out HUGE if he ever has another match. I absolutely love Hulk Hogan. I remember when I was a kid, we didn't have cable and only go NWA which later became WCW, Jerry Jarret's Continental Wrestling, Smoky Mountain Wrestling.. but no WWF. I would ask my dad about Hulk Hogan and if he ever saw him wrestle and I was just so intrigued by him. That was one of the best moments ever when I finally got to see him wrestle. I remember how upset I was when King Kong Bundy attacked Hogan and broke his ribs, or how scared I was when Andre came up behind Hulk and choked him out.  I remember the Big Boss Man hand cuffing him to the guardrail and beating him with his nightstick and I would yell and get all emotional and scream at the screen.When Hogan lost the title to The Ultimate Warrior at Wrestlemania VI, I cried. I was in disbelief and it felt like someone died. It was on April 1st and I thought it was some sort of April Fool's Joke. Hulk Hogan had the belt for damn near 3 years straight. There was no way he could lose.  Then once he joined WCW I immediately watched WCW. When he was in the nWO I always longed for the day he would go back to the Yellow and red.  WM when he faced the Rock how I was so delighted the pop he got over the Rock. Anyhow, Great charisma and I've never seen a bad Hogan match no matter how technically bad he was, he had such an IT factor, that his limited skill set didn't matter at all. Hogan had the greatest ring psychology of all time and I think he has somehow become underrated.


The next two changed my life immeasurably and it is very hard to differentiate between them so this is very close, damn near a tie situation.


2.HHH:  I started lifting weights because of HHH, I own about 5 HHH T shirts and I just absolutely idolize the guy.When I was going through a horrible stretch of life, HHH was someone I looked forward to every week to really give me a boost and motivation. I think due to his marriage to Stephanie, he now, like Hogan, gets a bad rap and doesn't get his just due. I think his wrestling ability and how he gets other guys over is amazing. The injuries have slowed him down a bit and his character needs to go back to being a heel but I personally have never seen a bad HHH match.


3.Chris Jericho: I can't begin to describe how much i love Chirs Jericho. From the first time I saw him in WCW, He was my favorite and one of those guys u know deserves to be on top but never got the chance. When he left WCW to go to WWE, I knew he would become one of the greatest ever.
I use to be very shy. I know that is hard to believe, but wrestling helped bust me out of my shell. Jericho's loud boisterous personality inspired me to be more outgoing and to let my personality out. I remember dressing up for Jericho for a Halloween party at a bar back in 1999 and I would do my Jericho promo **** and it was just hilarious. I had my hair all spiked and a glittery loud button down shirt on. It was hilarious and I kind of ran with that sort of over the top personality *as if u couldn't tell* Jericho is the greatest wrestler alive today. The stuff he has done since coming back has been remarkable. He is the best on the mic and he could make me look like a world champion in the ring.
