I'd have to put the likes of Bret Hart, HBK, Jericho, Angle, Eddie, Sting, Owen Hart, Rock, Austin in there. Maybe HHH, but guys like Hogan, Hall, Nash just didn't feel to me like great in ring guys, idk why.
I would have put Benoit purely on wrestling but what he did disqualifies him IMO.
What benoit did outside of the ring does not disqualify him what he did in the ring. He was a master of his craft.
I wouldn't put attitude austin on that list. In his wcw and ringmaster days, sure. But Stone cold was a brawler.
I would also add cm punk on that list. Also, rey mysterio and edge. Ahhh, good ol smackdown 6

I don't bring up Benoit much because it ignites many many emotions. He was a heck of a wrestler. I havent seen it in a while but I remember how great it was seeing him and Eddie close out Wrestlemania XX as Champs.

Sting, Rock, Austin, were okay ring workers. They knew how to work and be charismatic. But Austin will be the first one to tell you that he was an above average wrestler. And HHH belongs on there
Besides the obvious guys, some of my all time favorites are Malenko, Ultimo Dragon, Booker T, Curt Henning, and Dennis Rodman.

To be fair prior to his neck injury especially in WCW Austin was a solid worker his matches with Steamboat were great. Along with Steamboat, great in-ring workers have to include Ric Flair and Arn Anderson too

I agree with your list maybe minus Sting. As much as I loved his character, I just never dug his in-ring style. Oh, and his Impact "Joker" character was
