On the heels of Shaq's impressive showing tonight.
Ronda Rousey probably had the greatest ever debut performance but I don't feel it's fair to include her as she ended up being a full-time wrestler.

In-ring, Lawrence Taylor.
For impact on pro wrestling, tie between Andy Kaufman and Mr. T.

Other: Andy Kaufman. No not a mat technician but psychology and character work was on another level

I see no Pat McAfee. The man who changed the rating scale for the better

Yeah I'm the troll that picked Snooki.
I also was like WTF ?? when she was announced to wrestle but I think she did a fantastic job in the ring for never wrestling before and you could tell she trained hard to get ready for the match.
I also hated Jersey Shore but always had a soft spot for Snooki.

Karl Malone's Diamond Cutter was actually really good.

Where is Pat?
In terms of a match I still say Mayweather/Show is the best one. In terms of guys who could become wrestlers if they put their mind to it, Amell and Pat could done some things tho jury still out on Pat since you expect him around more

I would have gone with Snooki, but I voted other because of Kaufman. He had an unusually sharp understanding of wrestling psychology and of the importance of engaging the crowd. I think it's a lost art.

Other: David Arquette.
Not because of his WCW championship win itself.
But because he knew it was a bad idea, tried to make it work, donated the money he earned to people who needed it, and actually felt so strongly about making up what happened to the wrestling business that he trained and began a legitimate wrestling career purely to try to wash the bad taste of his WCW title reign out of wrestling fans’ mouths.
Above all, that’s the kind of character, class, and respect you don’t see enough of.

It's either McAfee or the one pro football player that had a few matches in Impact! (not Pacman Jones; this one was 2014-ish... I think)

For his contribution to pro wrestling, Mr. T.
For the quality of his work and how well he just "got it," easily Andy Kaufman, by a long shot.
