That's fine if you prefer high flying wrestlers, but I think you should be able to admit other styles of wrestling. There are many different areas a wrestler can be skilled at and be a good performer in the ring. Would you consider Flair, HBK, Hart, etc., good wrestlers? None of them are high flyers, but all of them know how to work a match. Same with Foley. He may be none for doing insane things, but he also knew how to work a match with the best of them.

But you're right, Austin's physical abilities aren't that great anymore. He was never a high flyer, but he used to be able to do any ground oriented move in wrestling when he was younger. Him and Pillman were amazing as a team. Unfortunately both had serious injuries and had to change their style. I think that forced both of them to develop their mic skills and ring psychology. They, and HBK/Flair, are probably my four favorite wrestlers of all time.

For the record, I do like Van Damn, Rey, etc., but none of them can work the emotional side of a match like Austin. I enjoy their matches for what they are, incredible physical acts that few men can do.

Also, I've hated Hogan with a passion since I was a little kid. We can agree on that point. Oddly, I used to love the Ultimate Warrior and he was only a tad better than Hogan in the ring lol.

yeah that's what i was trying to say in the first place austin is very limited to what he can do, he get's over because of his character. it is so obvious why can't you guy' understnd this? and yes i d appreciate guy's like flair and hbk and hart. but austin on the other hand ......... drink's his beer's uses the middle finger does his punches his kicks and hten finally the stuner thats all he does.
