Top WWF Wrestlers of 1991 based on sheer presense

[Mister Yummy]

Hey all you crappers. I made this list tonight for the purposes of making CAW's for WWF No Mercy. The results were pretty interesting, so I thought I'd share the results of my hours of labor with you guys, as this is the only wrestling board I frequent.

These are the top wrestlers in the WWF in 1991 based on the level of presense and exposure they have. It's not based on ability, personal preference, win/loss, or anything like that. It is based on how long the wrestler was with the WWF in 1991, how many supercards they worked, and the level on the card of their matches on those shows.

My WWF 1991 month-to-month roster came from here

www.solie.org/wwf91.txt

General Adnan, Genichiro Tenryu, Kji Kitao, Dusty Rhodes, Dustin Rhodes, Shane Douglas, Sam Houston, Saba Simba, and Pete Daugherty all wrestled on supercards, and got points for that, despite not being listed on the month-to-month rosters at all!

My list of 1991 WWF Supercards and their results came from

www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/results/wwe/1991.html

When and if wrestlers were unactive came from my own faulty memory. The only ones I could remember were Macho Man being retired from Wrestlemania until Survivor Series, and Ultimate Warrior being inactive from SummerSlam on. Any additions to that?

Interestingly enough, Barry Horowitz, "The Rocket" Owen Hart, "Connan" Chris Walker(who?), Tatanka, Jim Powers, and Hillbilly Jim didn't appear on any Supercards all year, despite them all being on the roster, all year in Hillbilly Jim and Jim Powers' cases.

Any questions, comments, suggestions, or anything else? I'd love to hear them.
