Opinions:
“Man, I miss Mr. Perfect. He is one of the many “gone too soon” stories in the industry & had so much more to give. Not because he was obligated to, but because he undoubtedly would have wanted to. He’s one of those guys that as a child, I didn’t have much knowledge of until he made his way to the WWE. However, his matches before he made the leap earned him the name “Mr. Perfect” (even though, fun fact, Terry Taylor was supposed to be Mr. Perfect, but ended up as The Red Rooster.) and he continued to ply his craft and become one of the greatest wrestlers of all time.” — Jay Alletto
“The top guy that never was. I always thought that it was odd that Curt Hennig was never given an opportunity to show if he could make it at the top of WWE and other promotions. But the funny thing is that he was never a top guy, but he still deserves to be on this list. He’s one of the most iconic and notable stars of his era and I think he has earned this spot. On my personal list, he was number 42, but I’m totally okay with Hennig higher up on the list.” — Eron Ramadanov
