For me the top two were definitely JBL and Edge. Wow did I hate them as a kid.

The Million Dollar Man for sure. I was a total kid mark and I hated him. Virgil beating him at Summerslam was of my biggest ever mark out moments.

The fact that JBL's heel run counts as "As a kid" for some people just made me feel really old all of a sudden.
I'm sure this will have the same effect on others. I never really appreciated Kevin Nash until after he retired. Then I appreciated his skills on the mic and as a big man.

HHH.
I stopped watching in '99. He annoyed the ever-loving piss out of me.
Kinda budgied that one up there, didn't I?
Came back in '00......and he still annoyed me. Kinda the point, I suppose. Really got into his shtick though.

I also feel old, but I'll go ahead anyway and say Rick Rude.

God, I'm an antique lol.
Rude, Hennig, Dibiase, I didn't hate him but my first exposure to Jake Roberts character hooked me. The Freebirds when I got to go to a friend's house who had satellite and could get WCCW.

Triple H and The Rock pissed me off a lot as a kid (when they were heels of course). It got worse when Kurt Angle started. My god did I hate his guts (ironic when you consider how much I loved him when he turned face in '01 to fight Austin, but I guess that's part of being a fully fledged mark - I miss those days). I grew to appreciate them all later, especially Angle and HHH's heel runs in 2000.

Bret Hart & The Rock.
I hated both of them just because both of them feuded with my two favourites: Shawn Michaels & Steve Austin.

HHH from late '99 through '00. He was f***ing awesome.
The Rock when he was heel in '98. I actually like that more than anything he did as a face now.
Shawn Michaels in the DX days. I can't imagine ANYONE else in that role besides him. What a prick.

William Steven Regal. As a kid, like mid 90s WCW, I thought he was so boring and lame and just wanted him to get his ass kicked. Now I realize he is one of the best to ever do it.

I wasn't a kid, but a teen/early 20s. I never really got the big deal about Guerrero. Always thought he was made for the midcard, and didn't think of him as a real deal main eventer. I don't know, I just wasn't in to him. Even after his death (I felt bad for him & his family) I didn't think he was ever a top talent during his career.
Now, when I sit back & watch his stuff I go "Damn, great in the ring, great at telling a story in the ring, very entertaining on the mic... Yeah, the dude was top notch."
