Nick Bockwinkel. I've seen most guys I would've liked to have seen through the power of the Internet, but not nearly enough of Bockwinkel.
His promo work is fantastic. Probably my favorite from that era. The work I've seen from him in the ring was from his later years, so I'm curious as to how he was before that time.

great choice. having grown up with WWWF from the 70s through the 80s i got to see most of the greats from that era. except Bockwinkel. only ever read about him in the wrestling mags. i'll add to the list the other Midwest guys - Crusher Dick the Bruiser Ray Stevens (especially the tag team of Stevens and Pat Patterson) and let's not forget the Detroit guys - The Sheik Bobo Brazil The Fabulous Kangaroos |

I was lucky enough to get to see a lot of shows between 1990 and 1993 when the old guard wasn't quite past their prime and the new guys were on their way up.
I have never gotten to see Piper wrestle live or see Andre in person. If I had to choose any wrestler I've never seen, it would most definitely be Andre.

Hogan, I would probably cry from pure excitment. There is no one else I could possibly think of other than the Immortal one.

Gerry and Jack Brisco and Terry and Dory Funk during the height of their fued.

There's a alot, I'd love to see The Road Warriors though.*
*I did see them at WM 13, but late eighties NWA era would be awesome.

Nick Bockwinkle. I have seen tapes of his matches at the end of his career. If he was as good as he was at the end of his career, I can only imaging him in his prime.
I also would loved to have seen The Crusher wrestle in Milwaukee. From what I have been told, the ovations for him were so loud, no other wrestler has been close in any era in that city.

Bruiser Brody and Harley Race. I'm an old school fan, and those two really appeal to me regarding their styles.
