Who in your opinion is the Mt Rushmore of Wrestling?

Basically meaning the top 4 biggest stars ever.

Write it as you wish, WWE or non WWE or whoever.It's interesting because of all the names that come to mind here is my Mt Rushmore.Order is in times of eras.Hulk HoganStone Cold Steve AustinThe RockJohn CenaThis definitely isnt a popularity vote as im personally not a big Hogan fan but gotta give credit where it's due he's up there.I'm interested in your thoughts? And who would you pick?Honourable mentions:Plenty of them.Undertaker Bruno SammartinoBret HartRic FlairStingShawn MichaelsThen getting abit more freelyTriple HRandy OrtonRoman Reigns (years to come)Brock LesnarChris JerichoAll from different eras and all respectable considerations.. (I really do think Taker is in a league of his own as the GOAT) as he survived all 4 eras when my 4 picks represented and was a top star the whole time.But those are my 4.

    Lou Thesz, Bruno Sammartino, "Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers and Hulk Hogan.

    Harley Race and Ric Flair should be on there, but Hogan overshadowed both when the WWF went national.

    My picks would be Hogan, Austin,Taker and between HBK/Flair/Bret Hart . It's hard, though, because I could name at least 10 who deserve to be there .

    There are so many angles to approach this from.  My default answer would probably be based on name value and draw, which would be; Flair, Hogan, Andre, and Austin with plaques at the bottom for Sammartino and The Rock.  Cena doesn't make it for me for the same reason Bret or HBK wouldn't make it for me.  They weren't household names or draws in their time.  Cena's probably the most recognized of the three outside of wrestling, but even then I think his exploits outside of wrestling helped garner him more of a name.  HBK only drew on top as part of DX but never really as a singles act.  I think he's even poked fun at the fact that business got better during the times he left due to early injury retirement and then losing his smile.  It's probably not his fault and falls more in line with Austin and Rock just finding their stars during Shawn's scattered times away from the ring, but yeah, Shawn never got the attention that those two got unless it was while standing next to Triple H.

    "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair; & Andre The Giant.

  • Vincent Kennedy McMahon would have to be up there because he is the one who made it possible for the people you named to become Icons in the first place. Triple H would probably have to go up there because he is shaping what you have been watching the last few years from WWE. Without Triple H NXT, NXT UK, The Women's Revolution as you know, it probably would not have happened. I'll have to think about who would be the other 2 on Mt. Rushmore.
