Definitely a great list. I'm sure everyone has their own top 10 in their own order but I'm sure not many would argue with who you've got on here. You've pretty much named most of them.
Ultimate Warrior, Greg Valentine, Brutus Beefcake, Jesse Ventura, The Magnificent Muraco and Tito Santana... just off the top of my head would have probably made my WWE top list.
I guess my top 10 would look like this... and it's for WWE only (my all time list would look a lot different (something I'm working on for the rankings board).
Just missed for me... Curt Henning, Ric Flair, Iron Sheik, Ricky Steamboat, Roddy Piper, Edge and The Million Dollar Man.
10. Kurt Angle 9. John Cena 8. Bruno Sammartino 7. Randy Savage 6. The Rock 5. Andre the Giant 4. Shawn Michaels 3. Hulk Hogan 2. Steve Austin 1. Bret Hart

Seems about right, to me. Except for one little thing... Kurt is about 33 places to low

As for some of the past wrestlers like Killer Kowalski, Nick Bockwinkel, Jack Brisco and his brother Gerald Brisco, Gorilla Monsoon and "Classie" Freddie Blassie. All of whom I never seen in action. And I'm surprised that Fabulous Moolah is the only female wrestler on their top 50 list.
As for my top 40 list:
40. Bob Backlund 39. Jake Roberts 38. Sgt. Slaughter 37. "Rowdy" Roddy Piper 36. Randy Orton 35. Mick Foley 34. Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka 33. "The British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith 32. Chris Masters 31. Chavo Guerrero 30. The Road Warriors 29. Victoria 28. The Big Show 27. Batista 26. Kane 25. Jerry Lawler 24. Ric Flair 23. Chyna 22. Chris Jericho 21. Matt Hardy 20. Jeff Hardy 19. Edge 18. Mickie James 17. John Cena 16. Rey Mysterio 15. Andre the Giant 14. "Macho Man" Randy Savage 13. Daniel Bryan 12. Triple H 11. Eddie Guerrero 10. Fabulous Moolah 9. Hulk Hogan 8. The Rock 7. Bret "The Hitman" Hart 6. Trish Stratus 5. Kurt Angle 4. Chris Benoit 3. Shawn Michaels 2. The Undertaker 1. Stone Cold Steve Austin

I couldn't make a solid top 40. I do know that Kurt is my favorite. Followed by probably the Undertaker. Austin, Hart, Michaels and The Rock would probably all crowd the top ten, too.

Kurt could easily have made my top 3 if he hadn't went to TNA... but I love seeing him in TNA because his actual wrestling skills are better utilized. Those matches he had with Lesnar in the WWE are epic to me. I got to see the Smackdown Iron Man world title match live in NC... and that was my only world title change I've got to see in person... still one of my all time favorite wrestling moments.

I read his book when he first released it. I was about 12 or 13. I had a deep admiration for him. I was flicking around and passed by AM Raw. Noticed The Rock on the titantron talking about Cena, and it was super interesting to me! Got me blood pumpin' and that hasn't happened with pro wrestling in 5 years.

So that first one wasn't your list Coldstone?
Jason, have you not seen Raw in a few weeks? It's been pretty good lately. But it usually always picks up around Mania time.

That first list was WWE's Top 50. The second one, Coldstone says it was his. I haven't watched a full on episode of wrestling in five years.
