Wow this is a difficult one, 'cause there have been so many icons since I started to watch in '88, but I'll give it a try:
1. Randy Savage (undisputed)
2. Bret Hart (as well)
3. Ric Flair (for never changing)
4. Jake Roberts
5. Raven (only in ECW and WCW)
6. Scot Hall (I liked him as Razor, but in the WCW he became the legend that he is)
7. Sabu (homicidal!)
8. The Ultimate Warrior (before all the returns!)
9. Rick Rude (the perfect villain!)
10. Brutus Beefcake (only as the Barber that he is!)
Only 80s and 90s heroes..., so did I grow out? Definetly not, but it's a fact that these guys made the most impact on me (when I was younger) and you always compare nowadays characters to them. And to the day none of them was able to reach the legendary status these ten guys have for me.

I have my list of top ten wrestlers.
In reverse order.
10. The Undertaker - How can you not like The Undertaker?
He is relatively new to wrestling compared with some on my list, but I expect in the years to come he will climb up my list as I remember the classic years.
9. Jake The Snake - The greatest psychological wrestler maybe ever. He could be extremely menacing and cut a great promo when he wanted to.
8. The Ultimate Warrior - I simply marked out for Warrior. I know he was a terrible worker but his presence was unbelievable in the late 80's and very early 90's.
7. Stone Cold Steve Austin - I was always a sucker for The Rattlesnake back in the "Attitude" years. He was always the guy who did what none of us had the balls to do in real life. It was great.
6. Mr. Perfect - The best technical wrestler ever in my opinion. He had it all - he could fly around like a luchador and ground the best scientific guys around with his blend of athleticism, intelligence and ring presence.
5. Rick Rude - The ultimate heel. Nobody else could get away with the gimmick of The Ravishing One. He was a great talker who sadly never fulfilled his promise. Another who died too soon. I still maintain he is the best wrestler never to win the world title.
4. Taz - Personified everything I loved about ECW. He was believable as the unstoppable suplex machine, and was impossible to punk-out. What a waste of talent when he went to the WWF.
3. The Warlord - I don't know what it was about The Warlord. He was big & dumb, he was slow, he was terrible at selling and his promos sucked. But I LOVED his look. He was everything that a professional wrestler should look like. Specially when he hooked up with The Doctor Of Style and began wearing the half-mask. Awesome!
2. Mick Foley - Who can forget the Hell In A Cell fall at the hands of The Undertaker? That moment stands out as the single best moment in wrestling ever to me. Foley in his various guises have captivated my curiosity since I first began watching wrestling. He is my hero.
1. Ric Flair - The kiss-stealin' son of a gun himself. The ultimate icon and was what wrestling was all about in the eighties. He could style and profile like no other and finally cemented his place when he won the best ever Royal Rumble in 1992 to become the WWF Champion.
