I had so much fun writing my last slideshow, I want do another one. This time I am going to list the top 20 wrestlers. This list will not include TNA or any other promition than WWE.
Remeber this is not how they will face off now, this is there whole career. LIke in there prime not like washed up Hacksaw Jim Duggan. Anyway I hope I can top my last one. I had a few difficultys with my last slideshow. I hope I don't make that mistake again.
These wrestlers are ranked on mic skill and ring skill. 20 is very hard to chose from because there, are so many good wrestler's in the WWE today. I hope I can impress you with my next article.
Enjoy! Comment please, By the way if you realize in spelling errors I am sorry my computer is messed up, and it won't let me go back and corrrect my mistakes.
Let's start the show!

20. Shelton Benjamin

Shelton Benjamin is no question the most athletic wrestler in the WWE today. He is great athlete, and is just wating for the push from the WWE. A multiple time intercontental Champion.
I think he defintly deserves this spot, it was very tough deciding between him and MVP. But when it came down to it, I knew alot of you would get very angry and leave nasty feedback.
He is athletic, but about a month ago. In my article wrestler win/loss record it revealed Shelton to have the worst record in WWE. I hope WWE realized that they have great talent such as Benjamin and that they should not misuse him like they have been doing to a lot of wrestlers in the past.

19. William Regal

He is defintly one of the most agressive in WWE today. Not to mention that he is one of the greatest European Champion in history. It's hasn't been all gold for William Regal, in 2008 he was the General Manger for Raw and did a fine job.
A former King of The Ring winner, how may superstars can say that. Regal is no doubt one of the greats WWE has to offer, and that is why William Regal desverves the spot at number 19.

18. Vladimir Kozlov

The Moscow Mauler has defeated some of the greats including The Undertaker. He had a very succesful run on Smackdown, by becoming undefeated up to when Shawn Michaels beat him and went on to face The Undertaker at wrestlemania 25.
Along with that Vladimir Kozlov has had a good amount of World Title opprutunitys. Although Kozlov has not held a title yet, believe me he will. Sorry could not find a picture of kozlov.

17. Mark Henry

The former ECW Champion, no question desreves a spot in the top 20 superstars. Mark Henry The World's Strongest Man, may not be the real strongest man. But he is one of them.
Mark Henry has a lot of accoplishments, but I can't list all of them. But I can say Mark Henry is defintly one of the greatest wrestlers.

16. John Morrison

John Morrison, the rising star of WWE defintly is ranked number 16. For one he is a three time Intercontental Champion, and a multiple time tag team champion.
Morrison in about 2 or three years will be the face of WWE. I mean he has a ton of talent, to me the most talented on the Smackdown roster. Sooner or later don't be surprised if John Morrison has world Gold around his waist. I could not find a picture of him either.

15. Christain

The ECW Champ comes in at number 15, and no doubt he deserved it. I mean he is part of what made WWE what it is today. If he's a heel or face, he still puts on a good show.
He has overcome some of the best stars of WWE. He has held a bunch of titles, I don't even now how many he held. A former Tna World Champ, and possibly a wwe world champion. But argubaly Christain is one of the greats. I could not find a picture of him neither sorry!

14. The Great Khali

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - JUNE 15:  The Great Khali and ECW Champion Kane stare each other down during WWE Smackdown at Acer Arena on June 15, 2008 in Sydney, Australia.  (Photo by Gaye Gerard/Getty Images)

The 7 foot 3 giant, is defintly in the top 20. A former World Champion, Khali has came to be like some of the Great giants like Giant Gonzales.
Whenever Khali steps in the ring his opponents immedntly are strike with fear. But besides that Khali is a pure athelte, and he deserves this spot at number 14.

13. Kane

Kane comes in the ranks at number 13, this superstar has shed his blood, sewat, and tears in that ring. Kane has had a storied career from interfering in The first ever Hell in A Cell match all the way to locking up the Great Kahli's brother.
The Monsterous Kane has been in some of the greatest matches. A former World Champion defintly deserves this spot.

12. Matt Hardy

What didn't he do not to deserve this spot. I mean he has almost held every WWE title for god sakes. But aside from that Matt Hardy is one of the most talented superstar in the ring today.
Matt will no doubt enter The WWE Hall Of Fame along side his brother Jeff as the dynamic duo know as The Hardy Boys. I could not find a picture of Matt, so I took a picture of his brother Jeff.

11. Rey Mysterio

SAN DIEGO - JULY 12:  New cruiserweight champion Rey Mysterio Jr acknowledges the crowd after defeating Jericho during the WWE Bash at the Beach event at Cox Arena in San Diego, California on July 12, 1998.  (Photo by Elsa /Getty Images)

Rey Mysterio, I do not know where to rank. You see if I put Rey Mysterio number one people will say he sucks he does not deserve it. But if I put him here others would be like huh he should be higher in the ranks.
Mysterio is the smallest World Champion ever, by defeating Kurt Angle and Randy orton at Wrestlemania 22. This was his biggest highlight of probaly his whole career. I mean how many people can say I am the smallest world champion ever, only one person can say that and that is Rey Mysterio.

10. Edge

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - JUNE 15:  (L-R) WWE World Heavyweight Champion Batista, WWE Executive Vice President Shane McMahon, and WWE wrestlers The Great Khali, Michelle McCool, MVP and Edge pose during the WWE Smackdown Photo Call at the Sheraton on the Park H

Many people have forgotten about the Edge, but no body can count out The Rated R superstar . Edge has made his name known in WWE. Whether it is cashing in the MITB or La Famila Edge hasn't failed to impess us.
Many say that Edge is a multiple WOrld Champion, but think about this Edge has never won the world title without interference or the MITB so can we really say he is the greatest when he can't even win a match by himself.

9.Big Show

LAS VEGAS - AUGUST 24:  Wrestler Big Show appears in the ring during the WWE Monday Night Raw show at the Thomas & Mack Center August 24, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.  (Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images)

Big Show is A building with feet my opion. Though Big Show is in great shape for a 7 foot 500 plus pounder. Big has worked for many companys and always he is the most intimadating superstar.
I hope me and him never cross paths, The former world Champion destroys anybody in his way that is why I put him on this spot because he is a talented athletic giant.

8. CM Punk

LOS ANGELES, CA - APRIL 07:  Wrestler CM Punk arrives at the 1st Annual Epiphone Revolver Golden Gods Awards at the Club Nokia on April 7, 2009 in Los Angeles, California.  (Photo by Michael Buckner/Getty Images)

CM Punk is a two time money in the bank winner, and don't forget a three time World Champion. Punk has made a legacy for himself in WWE, and think about this he has been in World Wrestling Entertainment for only three years and has acomplished almost as much as Edge has.
Punk is a great heel now and was great face, but in my opion he is a great heel and really gets the crowd going. He has made a mark in each brand he is in he has left a mark that CM Punk is here, and he is the new face of WWE.

7. Chris Jericho

Am I Jerichohalic no, and I don't want to be any time soon. Jericho is defintly one of the greats of WWE, I mean on his debut he defeated The Rock and Stone Cold in the same night and became the first ever world champion.
Chris Jericho has defintly had some points to see why he is the best, and so has Syvato, but he is not as good as everybody thinks he is i mean he lost to JTG!

6. Randy Orton

The now WWE champon is the greatest heel in WWE today. Along with CM Punk he has made a legacy, no serious he made a legacy with Cody Rhodes and Ted Dibase.
Anyway a 6 or 7 time world champion has left his mark in WWE. I hope to see Orton in the WWE Hall Of Fame in acouple of years.

5. Batista

We are down to the final 5 and only the five best will make it, and one of them is The Animal batista. He former World Champion, has his shared past of injurys, but when he is not injured he is unstoppable.
I mean every time he makes return he become s World Champion and loses it in about a week maybe two because of more surgey because of Steriods.
But Batista is one of the greats of this buisness, so he does deserve this spot at number 5.

4. John Cena

ORANGE, CA - MAY 08:  Wrestler John Cena arrives at the Lions Gate Premiere of 'See No Evil' at the Century Stadium Promenade 25 on May 8, 2006 in Orange, California.  (Photo by Michael Buckner/Getty Images)

The strongest man on the WWE roster is John Cena no question about it. Whether you love him or you hate him (WItch most of you do) you can't argue with the fact that John Cena bust his ass off for WWE every week so each and every one of us can be entertained.
Cena has headlined Wrestlemania for years, and not to mention other big PPV but still people stil says he is boring. Boring my ass he isn't he is one of the greatest stars in WWE and yet he still get;s booed. He is the go too guy and he has the toughest schedule in WWE today.
Cena is a multiple time world champion, and has beaten some of the greatest such as Triple h and HBK. I hope you can agree with this pick but I know most of you won't.

3. Triple H

HOLLYWOOD - AUGUST 21:  Wrestler Triple H, Paul Michael Levesque arrives at the WWE's SummerSlam Kickoff Party at H-Wood Club on August 21, 2009 in Hollywood, California.  (Photo by Frazer Harrison/Getty Images)

We are comig down to the end, and number 3 is Triple H. He is ranked number 1 in the PWI 500. And is a multiple time world Champion. Triple H has gone down in the books as one of greatest wrestlers known to man.
He is in to me the greast tag team ever D-Generation X. Triple H has a list of accomplishments that keep on going on. But we can't argue with fact that he deserved the spot in the top 3.

2. The Undertaker

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - JUNE 15:  The Undertaker (L) pushes Bam Neely into the corner during WWE Smackdown at Acer Arena on June 15, 2008 in Sydney, Australia.  (Photo by Gaye Gerard/Getty Images)

The Undertaker is a legend, in the wrestling bussines. He has a storied career. He is a talented and a pure athlete, not to mention one of the greatest world Champion.
Taker has risen from hell and back, and puts on a great show for the fans every week. He has shed thee most blood of any wrestler in WWE maybe even WWE history.

1. Shawn Michaels

You could have guess it, it is none other then HBK Shawn Michaels. Michaels is the face of the WWE. He is a wrestling legend a future hall of Famer 100 percent sure. He is not just a legend he is the best wrestler ever to step foot inside a ring. He is both athletic and talented.
Michales is the greatest he has defeated Bret Hart, Kevin Nash, the list goes on. He is the fan favorite for sure. When he gone wrestling will be gone. When he is dead wrestling will be dead. He is what WWE Builds off of. Bret Hart is not the best there is the best there was and the best there ever will be because simple Shawn Michaels is.

Others greats

This slides are for other greats who didn't make it two of the big names are MVP and Dolph Zigler I will write one paragraph about them.

Dolph Zigler- I had forgoten about him, I wish I had put him in but my mistake. Ziggler is the future Randy Orton. He is receving that push from WWE. That he should have. So sorry O forgot him.

MVP- He is on the intro, but I just had to pick between him and benjamin it was tough but I figured that people will get mad at me if I did not have Shelton Benjamin on my list.

I hope you enjoyed this article please comment/ and feedback thank you and goodnight.
