Best Seller in the WWE?

[The Beast Disincarnate]

I liked the way Matt sold the knee injury vs Miz, Morrisson and Mvp.
I loooved the horrified faces of girls marks in the crowd then

I don't know about currently, but Haku is the best seller in the history of the business.

[waits to see if anyone gets this one]

Jeff or Orton for sure.

Here's one I'm surprised no one has mentioned: Terry Funk...seriously at ONS when he injured his "eye" I honestly thought something had been botched.

Honorable mentions: Ric Flair & RVD.

The biggest advantage WWE wrestling has over indy wrestling is selling, and it's completely ridiculous how bad the selling is on the indies when you compare them to WWE.

Orton wrestles like it's real and he sells like it's real. Nothing fancy, just goes in there and gets the job done, and doesn't do anything to take away that he wants to win. Randy Orton is a very old school type of wrestler. He goes in there for one reason. And that's to win, where as I find a lot of wrestlers want to try and "entertain the crowd", and not suspending their own disbelief to make it look like an actual sport, if you get me.

Of course Shawn Michaels, second best seller ever in my opinion under Mr. Perfect (and Michaels learned a lot from Perfect). The Hardy Boys are good at it. Matt is much better then Jeff (who I feel is one of the best sellers in the WWE, Matt), but Jeff is really getting better at it.

I saw Punk as some answers, and I think he's gotten better at it. I remember watching Judgement Day, and he had Elijah Burke up for a vertical suplex and didn't sell his ribs (he shouldn't have done the move in the first place, but that's just me).

I also feel people knock OVW, but the main reason indy guys get sent there is because in general, they're not that good at selling or psychology. And that's why people get pissed that they're not as good when they get called up. No, they don't do as much anymore, because they're not going out there to have headdrop fests where this guy falls on his head, and then hulks up, screams and runs full speed towards his opponent, drops him on his head, and then hulks up some more, and all that nonsense.

Or even worse, wrestler A hits a vicious looking move on wrestler B, and wrestler A instead falls back into the ropes, rebounds, hits a lariet, wins, and the celebrates like nothing happened. Or even worse. When wrestler A hits their one of their established moves on wrestler B, and then wrestler B rebounds off the ropes on the outside, hits him with a lariet, and doesn't sell anything. Man, I hope they don't make that guy a company's champion.

Who is currently the best seller in the WWE? My vote goes to Randy Orton.

Yeah It's Orton. I think that's one of the major reasons Bret Hart said he wanted to work with Randy if he could because Orton's got a good old school style, and he's one of the most consistent sellers.

He's A LOT like his dad in regards to his wrestling style and ability, which is a great compliment.

IN today's world of wrestling he's as old school a wrestler there is in WWE.
