   "Ravishing" Rick Rude

Ric Flair isn't the only Flair to win bling in the ring. His daughter, Charlotte, has paved the way for women's wrestling in the WWE: She has held eight belts, and when Flair found out, he was one proud papa, telling fans that she was "no longer Ric Flair's daughter," but he was "Charlotte Flair's dad."

   Randy Orton
2. Randy Moss
   Macho Man Randy Savage

When Macho Man Randy Savage first entered the ring in the 1970s, he was known as "The Spider" and had a costume similar to Spider-Man. In the 2002 movie "Spider-Man," Savage portrays Bone Saw McGraw, a wrestler who stands it the way of Peter Parker and $3000.

   Rockin' Robin
2. Fabulous Moolah
   Sensational Sherry

Even though some of her male counterparts have been able to hold a title for more than a year, the Fabulous Moolah held the Women's Championship for 28 years! It was in 1984 when Wendy Richter ended Fabulous Moolah's reign in a bout that aired on MTV. Richter's Manager? Pop Princess Cyndi Lauper.

1. "Ravishing" Rick Rude
   Rowdy Roddy Piper
2. Macho Man Randy Savage
   Randy Orton

With his larger-than-life personality, Rowdy Roddy Piper was part of the reason why people tuned into wrestling week after week. As he was one of the most wicked villains in wrestling history, fans would go wild when his bagpipes started to play.

1. The Honky Tonk Man
   Million Dollar Man
2. Jake "The Snake" Roberts
   Grizzly Smith

In addition to his cunning and snakelike personality, Jake "The Snake" Roberts also inspired another trend in the 1990s. During a bout between Stone Cold Steve Austin and himself, Austin mocked Roberts's quoting of the Bible, creating his own verse "Austin 3:16." The rest is history.

1. Rowdy Roddy Piper
   Lex Luger
2. Hulk Hogan
   Ric Flair

In the 1990s, when Hulk Hogan transitioned from the WWE to the now-defunct WCW, he flipped the script. Instead of playing a hero, he was a villain who recruited other baddies together to create the NWO. Why? He figured his fans were getting bored of his heroic persona.

1. Andre the Giant
   The Honky Tonk Man
2. Million Dollar Man
   Lex Luger

What made Andre the Giant so tall? As a child, Andre the Giant was affected by a rare disease called acromegaly. Though typically found in middle-aged adults, this disease is a hormonal disorder that results from the pituitary gland producing too much of the growth hormone.

1. The Undertaker
   Kane
2. Sting
   The Ultimate Warrior

Back in the 1980s, many wrestlers would stroll towards the ring, but the Ultimate Warrior charged the ring, setting the energy for the match. He was so quick that when he wrestled against Honky Tonk Man in 1988, he won the Intercontinental belt in around 30 seconds.

1. Sgt. Slaughter
   The Sultan
2. The Iron Sheik
   Nikolai Volkoff

Even though he was known for his rivalry with Sgt. Slaughter, The Iron Sheik had a match that would help drive wrestling into the mainstream during the 1980s. When he defended the WWE title that he'd earned a month prior, Hulk Hogan defeated him, giving Hogan his first belt of many.

1. Ember Moon
   Chyna
2. Sensational Sherri
   Madusa

Even before setting foot in the WWE ring, Sensational Sherri had three belts from the AWA. When she arrived at the WWE, her first fight was against her trainer, the Fabulous Moolah, who was defending the Women's Championship Belt.

1. Scott Hall
   Bam Bam Bigelow
2. Scott Steiner
   The Warlord

If you wanted to watch brutal wrestling, you would turn to ECW, the franchise that utilized broken bottles, razor wire and Singapore canes as only a few props that wrestlers could use on one another. And to be the champion, that's a whole new game, which was what Bam Bam Bigelow brought to the WWF in 1987.

1. King Kong Bundy
   Razor Ramon
2. The Honky Tonk Man
   The Million Dollar Man

When "Wrestlemania 2" debuted in 1986, King Kong Bundy wrestled against Hulk Hogan, and because Bundy's performance as a heel was so good, everyone had to root for Hogan, which helped create Hogan's face persona. Outside of the ring, the two remained friends until Bundy's death in 2019.

1. Dustin Rhodes
   Cody Rhodes
2. Dusty Rhodes
   Cody Runnels

Because he had a less-than-stellar physique and wasn't much of a technician, Dusty Rhodes used his charisma to get people to their feet, and by being true to who he was and where he came from, he was given the nickname "The American Dream" and that made fans adore him.

1. Lex Luger
   Larry "The King" Lawler
2. Larry Zbyszko
   Larry Stephens

With an amazing body and moves that would make the best technician green with envy, it was no surprise that Lex Luger earned the nickname "The Total Package." He then won the United States Championship three times with the last time being the most memorable; he held onto the title for over 500 days!

1. "Ravishing" Rick Rude
   Brutus Beefcake
2. The Honky Tonk Man
   Bam Bam Bigelow

Sometimes nicknames are born when you're in the ring, which is the case in the creation of Brutus Beefcake's nickname "The Barber." After Roddy Piper defeated Adrian Adonis in a Hair vs. Hair match during Wrestlemania III, Brutus helped Piper cut Adonis' hair, earning him that nickname that night.

1. Ric Flair
   Rick Steiner
2. "Ravishing" Rick Rude
   Rick Martel

When it comes to playing the game on all fronts, "Ravishing" Rick Rude was a master. Often wearing the faces of his opponents on his tights, he would get into his opponents' heads while mocking their flabby bodies and disrobing, showing off his physique and earning the love of the ladies at the events.

1. The Million Dollar Man
   The Honky Tonk Man
2. "Ravishing" Rick Rude
   Bam Bam Bigelow

With his Elvis Presley-style jumpsuit and pompadour, it should have been no surprise that The Honky Tonk Man was going to make a big splash in the WWE. He did, but only after taking a break, which was when the character evolved to becoming the baddie we know and love today.

1. "Ravishing" Rick Rude
   Ric Flair
2. Rick Steiner
   Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat

With his hard-working ethic and incredible physique, Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat was not only beloved among the fans but his peers as well. It is that work ethic that brought him out of retirement in 2009, where he wowed the fans in a series of bouts with Chris Jericho.

1. Colonel DeBeers
   General Adnan
2. Sgt. Slaughter
   Colonel Mustafa

At the height of his career, Sgt. Slaughter had a unique decision to make. Should he stay with the WWE and wrestle or become part of the G.I. Joe Universe? It took maybe a millisecond for Slaughter to decide that he was going to hang with Joe, Duke and the other recruits.

1. The Undertaker
   Sting
2. Kane
   The Ultimate Warrior

If you watched WCW back in the 1990s, you'd be familiar with a Sting who was darker with black and white face paint and black trenchcoat; however, in the 1980s, Sting was a surfer with bright blonde hair and gold tights.

1. The Fabulous Moolah
   Lita
2. Sensational Sherri
   Rockin' Robin

When it came to the Smiths, Rockin' Robin wasn't the only one in the ring. Her half brother Aurelian Jake Smith Jr. was also a bit of a thing; he ruled the ring as Jake "The Snake" Roberts.

1. Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat
   Junkyard Dog
2. Honky Tonk Man
   Sgt. Slaughter

Many wrestlers have had the opportunities to play other sports, and Junkyard Dog was no exception; in the late '70s, he was drafted by the Green Bay Packers. His ability to work on teams helped him land several tag-team belts.

1. Honky Tonk Man
   Greg "The Hammer" Valentine
2. Jesse "The Body" Ventura
   Jake "The Snake" Roberts

When you're part of a wrestling family, it's often hard to step out of the shadows of your predecessor to make a few strides of your own. Greg "The Hammer" Valentine took his famous father's (Johnny Valentine's) legacy and made it his own by winning both tag-team and individual titles.

1. John Cena
   Johnny Valentine
2. Big John Studd
   John Morrison

One of Big John Studd's main opponents was a fellow Goliath, Andre the Giant. In the first Wrestlemania, it was a clash of the titans where the two massive men competed in a $15,000 Bodyslam Challenge, which Andre won.

1. Honky Tonk Man
   King Tonga
2. Jimmy Snuka
   Dino Bravo

As a fierce competitor, King Tonga started his training at the age of 10 in Japan, where he learned how to sumo wrestle. These skills helped him transition into the pro-wrestling circuit, where he eventually changed his name to Haku.

1. Mr. Perfect
   Honky Tonk Man
2. The Million Dollar Man
   Dino Bravo

After his Mr. Perfect days, Curt Hennig went by his given name in the ring, where he was a heel who would constantly flip0flop between WCW's Four Horsemen and the villainous NWO.

1. Mr. Perfect
   Honky Tonk Man
2. The Million Dollar Man
   The Undertaker

With his immense wealth, the Million Dollar Man would often stick wads of money into his fallen opposition's mouths. In addition to this, he created his own title (which was never recognized by the WWE) and purchased the contract for a wrestler called The Deadman, who later became The Undertaker.

1. Sgt. Slaughter
   Lex Luger
2. British Bulldog
   Sting

When he returned to WWE in the 1990s alone after his partner suffered an injury, the British Bulldog was a double threat. He could hold his own in the ring, winning the European and Hardcore Championships and winning the World Tag Team Championship with Owen Hart.

1. King Tonga
   Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka
2. Bam Bam Bigelow
   King Kong Bundy

If you've ever wondered how tough of a wrestler Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka was, check out a skit he did with Roddy Piper. It involved a coconut that both parties believed to be hollowed out; Piper hit Snuka in the head with it and caused a feud to ignite between the two.

1. Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka
   George "The Animal" Steele
2. The British Bulldog
   Dusty Rhodes

Unlike his persona in the ring, George "The Animal" Steele was anything but a savage. When he wasn't in the ring, he was a teacher in his hometown of Madison Heights, where he would coach football.

1. "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan
   Hillbilly Jim
2. Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka
   Big John Studd

Hillbilly Jim had a sweet introduction into the WWE. As an admirer of Hulk Hogan's moves and heroic persona, Hillbilly Jim would often protect those he'd ally himself with a loyalty that few wrestlers display.

1. George "The Animal" Steele
   Big Boss Man
2. Sgt. Slaughter
   British Bulldog

After he debuted in the late 1980s, Big Boss Man was approached by The Million Dollar Man, who wanted to purchase his contract. Because he turned him down and stuck by his morals, Big Boss Man became beloved by fans.

1. Honky Tonk Man
   The Undertaker
2. Koko B. Ware
   Big Boss Man

Even though Koko B. Ware never possessed a belt, this Hall of Famer was an amazing singer. He performed "Piledriver," the title track of the second album that the WWE released in 1987.

1. Boris Zhukov
   Sgt. Slaughter
2. Nikolai Volkoff
   The Iron Sheik

As the evil Russian master villain, it would only be natural that Nikolai Volkoff and the Iron Sheik joined forces to further their nefarious agendas, and in the first Wrestlemania, they beat U.S. Express and won the World Tag Team Championship.

1. Sting
   The Ultimate Warrior
2. Shawn Michaels
   Honky Tonk Man

Even though he became a part of the WWE family in the '90s as a solo act, Shawn Michaels got his start as part of a tag team called The Midnight Rockers. If you watch some of their footage, you'll notice that they have team moves, which wasn't seen often prior to their debut.

1. Scott Hall
   Bam Bam Bigelow
2. Scott Steiner
   Honky Tonk Man

When you think of tag teams in wrestling, the Steiner Brothers should make the list as one of the best. They are the only team to hold three belts from three different organizations (WWE, WCW and IWGP).

1. Dynamite Kid
   British Bulldog
2. Davey Boy Smith
   Steven Regal

As part of The British Bulldogs, the Dynamite Kid had nothing but the stars to reach for; however, it wasn't in the cards. After leaving the WWE with his partner Davey Boy Smith, he suffered a back injury that ended his career.

1. Rick Steiner
   Road Warrior Hawk
2. Road Warrior Animal
   Davey Boy Smith

Even before setting foot on the WWE stage, The Road Warriors were some of the most intimidating and successful tag teams in wrestling, with five different titles, excluding a WWE Hall of Fame Induction.

1. Honky Tonk Man
   Brian Knobbs
2. Shawn Michaels
   The Million Dollar Man

As part of The Nasty Boys, Brian Knobbs was known as one of the most hardcore teams in wrestling in the 1980s. One of their earliest rivalries was between The Midnight Rockers, which featured Shawn Michaels.

1. Hulk Hogan
   Virgil
2. Koko B. Ware
   The Million Dollar Man

Even though he was somewhat known in wrestling, Jones wouldn't become the fan-favorite that he was until 1987, when he became The Million Dollar Man's bodyguard, Virgil. His job was simple: soften the opposition so his boss could take the win.
