    1. Yes and No. As a Pro Wrestler, i don't thinks so. Kurt does had a couple of cons as a pro-wrestler. There is a difference between a shoot wrestler thats trained for real and a wrestler training to be a pro(The Bumps,Selling,Match quality, learning how to punch and make it look believable and stunts). Kurt great at both, but as a Pro Wrestler;he is not a good brawler at all and has few aerial manuvers. There are wrestlers that have just as good of a work-rate as him too such as Edge,Eddie Guerrero,Rey Mysterio,Bret Hart. If this was unscripted than he could take anybody. He won a gold medal and has out wrestled guys 100 pounds bigger than him. He is the best grappler and the best catch-can wrestler. He doesn't have the most submission holds, but has perfected them. Just like Kozlov, he could beat most in a real fight or free-style match(Trained in judo,Sambo and Kick-Boxing champion), but he was not that great of a wrestler in the WWE,because he could not seel or he did not take any bumps. His matches are fogettable also.

    2. Yes. Shawn Micheals was a complete wrestler and thats why he was so great. Far from the best mat wrestler and highflyer and other stuff. But he didn't have a flaw. In Prime or not really good on the mat, he was an inspiration to Chris Jericho singles and tag team. As you seen him in tag matches he could do a lot of high octane flying moves which back then were more remarkable than today. Nobody has had more big legendary matches than him. Most of the time had MOFT and at Wrestlemania. Having bell to bell clinics with Bret Hart, Kurt Angle,Chris Benoit;matching them move for move and surpising them on the mat, Giving the Undertaker the greatest match of his career,stealing the show ladder matches,Elimination Chamber Matches, and Hell in a Cell matches; because he could make anybody look good and he was over 200 pounds that would sell like a 150 pound would. He could make the match believable, but still do the fancy areial, but as he got older; he became less reckless and only did those unforgettable spots when the iron was hot. He could also make anybody better than they really were(Psycho Sid) (Kevin Nash). Good on the mic, could listen to him all night and he could talk a big game too. Great charisma and thats one of the reaons his matches were so good and promos.

    3. Disagree. Chris Jericho is not as good as he use to be in wrestling skills. As a worker nobody in the WWE is better than him or as good as him if not that. But he took a two year hiatus and forgot just about all of his moves(He said he only knows a feraction of the moves he use to know on WWE magazine). His heart is into other things besides wrestling also. He is a really good wrestler still. If this was a younger,fresher,Chris Jericho than yeah. 1999_2002 yeah. During those years and his WCW days he could wrestle the gravity free cruiserweight style and the stiff japanese style. He could work wrestle the WWE style also. He wasn't perfect at executing his moves, but had a very very large aresnal of manuvers,counters,holds. He could do it all,hardcore,brawling,speed,power. He is still as entertaining and smarter though.

    4. Do you mean upper-midcarder? If so yes. Kofi Kingston is a really good flyer, but Dolph is a shoot wrestler and his matches look more realistic and he is better on the ground than Kofi. Cody is talented also, but Dolph is faster,quicker and sells better and has more charisma and i think he is a better move for move wrestler. Tyson Kidd is more skilled in the ring, but not a midcarder. The Miz has great mic skills, but his wrestling skills does not match up to Dolphs(Miz is more a brawler and doesn't have the work ethic that Dolph does). I have yet to see what he is capable of athletically, but i know he is agile,very fast, the best seller, really good mat wrestler,fairly good brawler and one of the most talked about wrestler on here today. His mic skills has improved leaps and bounds. None of the midcarders have more great matches in the WWE than him(Christian doesn't count).

    5. Agree. Chris Benoit has took so many head shots that were real and he has killed himself doing what he is passionate at. One of the greatest and msot intense wrestlers of all time. One of the very few wrestlers that had such a good career without mic skills and size, because he was remarkable in the ring. Many see him as the greatest technical wrestler the WWE and he is up there next to Dean Malenko imo. what Chris did was wrong, but he wasn't in the right mind according to biopsy for risking his well being and working on a very high level many many years. It costed him his life. RIP Chris Benoit and his family. I don't think he would just throw it away cause he had a heart.
