[Rico]

Raven ranked Lower than Daivari LOL

The Miz ranked above Hardcore Holly

[Rob]

If Edge wasn't injured, he'd be number one, I'm sure of it

[Rico]

I believe the ranking period ended during the time when Edge was still wrestling....correct me if I'm wrong

[Vernon Vanderbilt]

PWI is all up on Cena's jock just like Vince and these "women and children" we hear so much about.

[Icon Lord Leon Corbin]

They need to take 'technical ability' off the list of criteria as well. No one seems to give a sit about that anymore.

[Icon Lord Sean "Magic" Fiery]

Edge is number 1... I don't need a list to show me that lol

[Spyral]

Samoa Joe should be placed before Shawn Michaels

[Rob]

And where is Giant Gonzales on that list???

[Rico]

LOL.....ya know I'd take Khali over Giant Gonzolez any day.....

I'm beginning to like Khali, he's actually better than what he was when he first showed up in the WWE

[Rob]

I demand a recount! Where the fuck is Funaki?

[Icon Lord Leon Corbin]

Are you kidding?! They both need throwing off a cliff

[Rob]

Aye on you go Ishy, I'll watch as you throw them off.
I'd have said toss, but that might be taken the wrong way

[Icon Lord Leon Corbin]

*Imagines 5'2 Ishy trying to prod big men of 7ft+ off a cliff*

You think it'll work? lol

[Rico]

it'd work for comedy purposes lol
