It says something about the fall of wrestling that the only guys I really ever hear people talk about were the 80s and 90s wrestlers. Not the 00 and 10's.

Truth is, both the Ultimate Warrior and the Million Dollar Man are entirely forgettable in my view. Hell, I always thought Barry Horowitz was better at his job than either of those two.

That being said, that is one mother f'ing epic rant.

Warrior was nothing. Had no mic skills, couldn't wrestle, couldn't draw if he wasn't wrestling another big guy.

DiBiase was a great heel. He could wrestle. Had way better ring psychology and could elevate lower guys. In terms of actual abilities, I reiterate, Warrior couldn't hold the Million Dollar Man's jock.

I hated Warrior, absolute stupid character, I understand that 80s was about the cheese but he was at a whole new level. On the other hand I thought Dibiase was one of the best heels in the business, he made it easy to hate him. Bret Hart's book does a good job painting Warrior as a dick.

Only then...will you be close....
