People need to stop acting like Eddie Guerrero was a bigger star than he really was just because he died. He shouldn't be above The Giant at all.

Rodman shouldn't be on this list at all. Since one of the criteria was cultural impact, I think he deserves a spot. Eh, I suppose. But it still seems like a joke to put Rodman on the top 50 of a wrestling list. He should only be considered for a top 50 list when it's basketball related. |

I would have placed Sullivan, Muta, Anderson, and Vader higher than their given spots, and the inverse with Bagwell and Austin. Otherwise, not too bad a list, with #1 and #2 being exactly what they should be. I have no objection to Jarrett's placement as exposure and push do not necessarily equal impact.

Rodman didn't belong on this list. Bischoff didn't belong on this list.  did, despite the backlash he's suffered since by the IWC. |

No. Most people objectively would say Pink Floyd is better then Miley Cyrus despite Cryus being more famous now. Or that Gone With The Wind or Saving Private Ryan is a better film then Transformers despite Transformers (probably) making more money. |

Not bad. The right guys made it into the top 5. Would've ranked Hall and Misterio Jr higher, myself.
I think there was some Canadian guy who was sorta-kinda important who should've made it onto here, but the lack of him is understandable.

Or that Gone With The Wind or Saving Private Ryan is a better film then Transformers despite Transformers (probably) making more money. The list was made based on accomplishments in WCW. The Giant was a multiple time WCW Champion, won the World Title in his FIRST wrestling match ever, won World War III in 1996, and was a 2 time tag team champion. Eddie Guerrero was a 1 time US Champion and a 2 time Cruiserweight Champion. There is no reason for him to be above The Giant. |

The top 5 or 10 of these types of lists is where I usually have issues, but I agree with this one for the most part.
Nice to see a lot of these people acknowledged, especially Sting.

#50. Jeff Jarrett And right there...is where I stopped. I'm not a fan of the guy and his peak was in the dying days of the company, but he should be in the top 20. 48. Dennis Rodman. Done. |

Top 5 is good but the rest seems like names drawn from a hat. Jarrett at 50 is just straight bullshit.

Sting is kind of a weird choice for the top one. He should definitely be way up there, but I'd have given it to Flair. Though then again, he was more of an NWA guy - the two do kind of bleed together even with Turner buying the company but still. The rest of the list is all kinds of screwed up, though. Stunning Steve Austin's a reach for the top fifty, much less fifteen. I think some of these lists get shifted around based on other people's positions. For example I was never a fan of Austin. But I think he was more important than Brian Pillman. So if Pillman is 20 Austin has to be higher |

Hate to say it but if Booker T is in the top 10 Jeff Jarrett needs to be as well.

They put some jabroni named Juventud over the Chosen One??? 3 Time cruiserweight champ and 1 time tag champ over a 3 time u.s. champ and 4 time world champ? Come on now, stop the biased selecting...
Also, I see they doubted El Dandy...

I don't like Jarrett, but having guys like Juventud over him as far as accomplishments in WCW is complete and utter bulls*** and an obvious shot at him from the website.
And I'm sorry, but Rodman did not make as much of an impact on business in WCW as he probably should have.

Go watch a WCW PPV from 2000. (Okay, don't. I won't make anyone do that.) But seriously - even as WCW falls apart around him, Ric Flair is still 100% golden. He remained the best performer the company had even when everything around him was total crap.
