Vote for the wrestler that you think had the better career in WWE (whether you base that on impact or match quality is your decision), from 1985 to 2005. Voting will end tomorrow evening at the latest. Please give the wrestler's name first and any explanation thereafter. Thanks.

Fuck, I would have to see all of those Brainbuster v. Rockers matches to give Jannetty the nod but Nash sucks so I'll give it to him anyway...

This is closer than you think, as while Diesel bombed as champion, he became a good draw for six months *after* losing the belt. He was a bad idea for champion, but Jannetty would have been a bad idea for champion as well. That said, he has the Michaels series in '93, the Brainbusters feud, his short-lived tag team with the 1-2-3 Kid was that incredibly great and should have lasted longer, and good matches against the Hart Foundation, LOD, Demolition, Orient Express and even Haku & The Barbarian. His comeback may strengthen his case even more. Diesel had matches with Bret and Shawn, and the Action Zone tag, but most of the rest of his career was a hindrance to the company rather than a help. I still think, like Bret Hart, that had they built him up more before putting the belt on him and not changed him so much after doing so that he would have drawn money.

Jannetty never did anything on his own that is memorable. Well, he got thrown through the Barbershop window but that credit goes to HBK.

 

At least Diesel had some singles matches and shit. A lot of them were terrible, much like his WWF run with the title, but he still did more than Marty.

I think it's close, too, because Marty was a flop after the Rockers. He retained popularity and had some great matches, but he was tough to buy seriously as a singles wrestler.
