Greatest Pro Wrestler to Never...

[OrangeEmpire]

He did.

Early 90's Vader was it........................

He was pushed hard as an unbeatable heel.

Who ended up fueding with him, was it Sting?

on a serious note, did Ricky Steamboat hold major heavyweight titles? He was my favorite wrestler as a kid, but I was too young to remember what titles he held. I know he had some US and IC titles, but not sure about the heavyweight belts.

Steamboat beat Flair on a couple of different occasions in Classic matches for the NWA/WCW belt.

Did Piper or Snuka ever hold a world title?

I believe Piper held it for a time (or two) in the WCW during his brief feud with Hollywood Hogan.

The Great Kabuki never held the title, but he hocked multi-colored loogies on every champion for about 15 years.

Kabuki was good. Muta, on the other hand, was truly great.

Did Jerry Lawler ever hold a world title?

Did Jerry Lawler ever hold a world title?

Yes. Of course that was back when Vince McMahan was in the ring and playing the loud mouthed manager..

I'm pretty sure he was one of the last AWA champions. Might have even been the last.

Hat, you are WAY more useful than you are made out to be. GREAT call.

Right on the money--Lawler beat Henning in his "win the belt or Retire" match.

Shortly after, the AWA and World Class merged--led to some decent Lawler/Kerry Von Erich (who once beat Flair for the NWA belt) matches.

 

[The Dude]

A former AWA world champion.

Hopefully he sprayed a lot of cologne in guys faces back then.

No, he was actually a face when he had his title run.
