This doesn't have anything to do with whether or not his body of work measures up. It literally has no bearing whatsoever. The work is what matters, not whether or not he's ranked #1.
>especially when Shawn, Angle, Benoit, Rey and
>Austin were there.
Austin stopped being in that class after he beat Shawn. He was increasingly a brawler after that and rarely looked back. Based on your standards, he's an average worker since he became The Man. And Rey was never in that class in WWE. WCW, yes. His WWE iteration is a VERY pale shadow of that. He became a caricature of THAT Rey.

The strong implication here is that a great match that's not technically sound is somehow less than, and that's about as disingenuous as it gets. There are different types of matches; A great match is a great match is a great match. End of story.
>I think the two Taker matches were well

>together that were just unbelievable.
The story on that last one was incredible, and a testament to all involved. You think a great match is all about awe-inspiring moves, but awe-inspiring spots and stories are equally valid.

Cool story, bro. I'm going out on a limb to say that at least three of those were Japanese matches, and honestly DGAF about what's going on over there.

LOL@4 star matches w/Nash. You're in fantasy land.
