Greatness Personified, Part 2: Top Current Superstars Careers, 11-20

Due to the number of views of my "Greatness Personified: Top 10 Current Superstar Careers" article, I decided to add a second part to it.

Just in case you missed it: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/412301-greatness-personified-ten-current-wrestlers-with-the-best-careers

This part of the article highlights my picks for the superstars who are 11-20 on the list, so at the end of the slideshow, there will be a list of 20 superstars who are working for either TNA or WWE with the best careers.

Again, I haven't added Hulk Hogan or Ric Flair on the entire list, as they would have been locks for Nos. 1 and 2.

Like, the previous article, I have given my take on the wrestlers' overall ability to not only wrestle but to entertain and put smiles on our faces.

The criteria is this: 1-10 is the scale and of course 10 being the highest.

Popularity Among Fans
In-Ring Ability
Quality Of Match
Prestige Of Title Reigns
Mic Skills

The amount of title reigns is taken into account, like in the previous article.

Just Missed the Top 20

21. CM Punk
22. Rhyno
23. Raven

20. Samoa Joe

Stats:

One-time TNA World Heavyweight champion
Four-time TNA X Division champion
One-time TNA World Tag Team champion
King Of The Mountain (2008)

The Samoan Submission Machine is in the top 20 and kicks off this 11-20 slideshow.

When you first take a look at his body, you don't think that Joe can hang with the rest of the X-Divison guys. He is a little pudgy, but of course you would be dead wrong to think he doesn't fit with the division.

Joe is ridiculously athletic, and his size allows him to bring a innovative style to the X-Division, far different from AJ Styles or Christopher Daniels.

He was in the greatest match in TNA history with AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels in a triple-threat for the X-Division title.

But Joe has also won the World title and has cemented his place as an elite wrestler.

19. Matt Hardy

Stats:

One-time ECW champion
One-time US champion
One-time Cruiserweight champion
Six-time World Tag Team champion
One-time WWE Tag Team champion
One-time WCW Tag Team champion

A legend with his brother Jeff Hardy in the tag team division, Matt Hardy has found his way onto this list at No. 19.

Hardy has never been given a significant push by the WWE in terms of going after the WWE Championship or the World Heavyweight Championship, but even without those titles, he still has had a phenomenal career.

He has competed in some of the WWE's greatest matches. Who can forget the two triple-threat TLC matches at WrestleMania.

Matt won't die.

18. Christian

Stats:

Two-time NWA Heavyweight champion
Two-time ECW champion
Three-time Intercontinental champion
Nine-time World Tag Team champion

Captain Charisma, always a favorite, is at No. 18 on this list.

He was also in those two unforgettable three-team TLC matches at WrestleMania. And he, along with his partner Edge, won both of those matches.

He went to TNA and instantly became a main-eventer, but he hasn't been able to get a significant push from the WWE for the Heavyweight titles.

He is almost being treated as a jobber and is getting up there in age, so the big title might allude his career.

Stats:

Two-time WWE champion
Two-time WCW champion
One-time ECW champion
One-time United States champion
Five-time World Tag Team champion
Two-time WWE Tag Team champion
Three-time WCW Tag Team champion

A 7 foot, 500-pound monster is at No. 17.

The Big Show has made a career out of out sizing and overpowering his opponents.

A former five-time Heavyweight champion, the giant has had some good feuds in the WWE, such as his matches with Kurt Angle and his matches against Brock Lesnar.

16. Jeff Hardy

Stats:

Two-time World Heavyweight champion
One-time WWE champion
Four-time Intercontinental champion
Six-time World Tag Team champion
One-time WCW Tag Team champion

The Charismatic Enigma Jeff Hardy soars his way to the No. 16 spot.

For good measure, Hardy has finally been given a push in his wrestling career and has become a three-time Heavyweight champ (and counting).

One of the most exciting wrestlers in the history of pro-wrestling, Hardy has won the hearts of wrestling fans all around the world because of his daredevil style of wrestling.

He has engaged in some good feuds with Randy Orton, CM Punk, Edge, and Triple H.

Stats:

Five-time WCW World Heavyweight champion
One-time WWE champion
One-time Intercontinental champion
Nine-time WCW Tag Team champion
Two-time World Tag Team champion
One-time TNA Tag Team champion
Two-time TNA Legends champion

Kevin Nash had it all, the look, the charisma, the size, and whatever company he worked for has gotten behind him and pushed him to main event status.

His first year in the WWE, he ended up winning the tag title, the Intercontinental title, and the WWE title.

He was a bonafied stud in WCW, winning the company's biggest prize on five different occasions.

The man was, of course, a legend in the tag team division. And he was and still is very funny in segments.

The thing that really kept Kevin back was that even though he's had a great career, he was limited in the ring, even in his prime.

14. Kane

Stats:

One-time WWE champion
One-time ECW champion
Two-time Intercontinental champion
Nine-time World Tag Team champion
One-time WCW Tag Team champion

The Big Red Monster is at No. 14.

Since he has taken off the mask, it seems like Kane has been stuck in the mid-card, and when he is in a Heavyweight title match, he is just a complementary piece in a triple-threat.

He has had good feuds with RVD, Undertaker, Stone Cold, and others, but the WWE has also tainted his legacy by putting him in dumb feuds with guys like Shane McMahon, Big Daddy V, The Great Khali, and more.

Kane is one of the scariest men ever to step foot in a ring.

13. Randy Orton

Stats:

Five-time WWE champion
One-time World Heavyweight champion
One-time Intercontinental champion
One-time World Tag Team champion
Royal Rumble Winner (2009)

The beloved Viper, Randy Orton, and his impressive resume, end up at No. 13.

He clearly is someone the WWE wanted to get behind from the very beginning of his career.

He had a very impressive seven-month Intercontinental title reign and was the youngest World Heavyweight champion in the history of WWE.

I will admit that at times, Orton can get extremely overrated, but his talent does speak for itself.

He has engaged in intense feuds with Edge, John Cena, Jeff Hardy, Chris Jericho, and others.

Stats:

Three-time NWA Heavyweight champion
One-time TNA World Heavyweight champion
Six-time TNA X-Division champion
Four-time NWA Tag Team champion
One-time TNA Tag Team champion
One-time TNA Legends champion

The franchise of TNA almost cracked the top 10, but for me he is at No. 12.

Styles put TNA on the map with his ridiculous in- ring ability. He was a star in the X-Division when the title was at its peak in prestige.

He was involved in one of the greatest matches of the past decade against Samoa Joe and The Fallen Angel for the X-Division.

He was also the first ever TNA triple-crown and grand slam champ.

If he keeps it up, he will get higher on this list the next couple of years.

11. Rey Mysterio

Stats:

Two-time World Heavyweight champion
Two-time Intercontinental champion
Eight-time Cruiserweight champion
Four-time WWE Tag Team champion
Three-time WCW Tag Team champion
Royal Rumble Winner (2006)

The "Biggest Little Man," Rey Mysterio, will end the rankings.

I love the story of the underestimated cruiserweight who battles his way to the top and becomes a World Champion.

His unique luchador style is unmatched in the ring, and he is beloved by the entire WWE Universe.

Some call him overrated, but I say—how? He has fought his entire career to show everyone that he is one of the best.
