Accounting to Wikipedia, Scott Hall was born in Maryland.

Oregon - Billy Jack Haynes (I would say Buddy Rose since he was a legend there, but he was originally from Minnesota).

Washington - Daniel Bryan I'd say Bryan for the "modern" list, but "Greg Valentine" for the old-school.

Yeah, Indiana should be Dick the Bruiser. Unless you're going with "born in" as the qualifier, then you can thrown in Ultimate Warrior, Terry Funk, or Mick Foley. I was thinking it should be Terry until remembering De Bruiser. Not many "kayfabe" from Indiana. I can only remember Chad Austin (Evansville). Rip Rogers (Goldie, The Hustler) is from Seymour, which explains his role as the bodybuilder in the John Mellencamp "Human Wheels" video. (Save for the WCW show I saw where he heeled on the crowd and said he's from anywhere EXCEPT Hammond, Indiana. Oh did the fans wanna kill him for that. Good times. )

I feel culturally obligated to answer for my home state of Vermont. Given the painfully short list of wrestlers born here, I think we can safely go with Vivian Vachon. I think you get Don Eagle too.

Also, Yukon Eric wasn't from Alaska, nor did he live there. He was only billed from there. Not sure if you guys cleared up the rules of this "game."

Ultimate Warrior lived in Scottsdale, AZ for most of his career and also died there, though he wasn't born in AZ...

I'm not sure what the rules are on kayfabe here but I would probably say Taker for Texas. I know Austin was the biggest star during the boom period but I think the average person in the street would be more likely to know The Undertaker as a wrestler. I can't speak for everywhere but whenever I tell people I still watch Wrestling, I always get the same question, "is The Undertaker still going?". To wrestling fans, we know Austin is from Texas as it was part of his character and a nickname. To non-fans, The Undertaker is a pop culture figure but except for his period as the Biker, his being a Texan is rarely acknowledged.

They used "born in" as their standard, which works on some levels, but totally doesn't on other levels.

Eric Bischoff lived in Wyoming part time for a while (maybe still does). That makes him from here?

Is this kayfabe or what? If so, I nominate Cactus Jack for New Mexico.
