Thats all Jeff is, a human highlight reel. He was interesting back when tag teams where the rave, but now his act is growing stale. Jeff is killing himself every week, and he knows that's all hes good for. If Matt went out there and jumped around the whole match he would be World Champion. The fans are to blame since normal mat wrestling is nothing anymore...i wish it wasn't true, but no one has respect for mat wrestlers anymore.

Re: Wrestler of the Decade
Matt Hardy- Could have Feuded with Edge for the title following the Lita fallout, but they decided to have him job to edge instead.
Shelton Benjamin- Chalk full of talent, lacks charisma, but hell Jeff cant talk either but he is still been champion
Kane- Very talented for a big man, his 24 hour stint as WWF champion was a slap in the face.
Christian- Got over VERY well as TNA champion, held back in ECW
No one can be properly catapulted because they always have to make room for taker to come back, have his short little feud for someone for 2-3 months then go back on vacation. Its interesting you find my opinon laughable, because your responce wasn't full of wit or irony either. How is getting paid to sit on your *** for months at a time NOT taking advantage of someone? Yeah, he makes them money with merchandise, but do you honestly think they make enough back to cover his pay? I HIGHLY doubt it.
Would your place of employment let you work for a few months then up and leave while still getting paid? Vince is lining takers pockets with cash he doesn't even have to hardly work for. Taker is a joke and has been since he came back with that stupid biker gimmick. There attempt to turn him back into a "dead biker" fell well short of getting over with fans that enjoyed him in the infamous purple and black. Fans that cheer for him are drones that have been sucked into this calamity. Everyone knows takers best days were in the early and late 90's as a legitimate "dead man". To make him come back as "human" then turn him "dead" again is a joke.
As of 2005, Taker was the 7th best draw the WWE has had since the 1950's, so he could be in the top five by now. That means Taker has brought in a lot of money. When you bring in a lot of money, taking time off for injuries or personal reasons isn't a big deal. Sure, Taker's injuries have hindered him in the 2000's, but his body of work is far superior to his work in the 90's. As far as Taker being a joke since the biker gimmick, you should actually check out his great matches since with the likes of HHH, Rock, Angle, Lesnar, Orton, Batista, Edge, and HBK. The Undertaker's gimmick is arguably the best the WWE has ever seen, based on the longevity of how over he has stayed, whether face or heel.Comment

Re: Wrestler of the Decade
Shelton has no business near the main event scene because he can't get over. All Shelton is good for is a couple spots in the MITB matches. Kane has had maybe three good matches since the year 2000. Nobody has cared about Kane since Shane McMahon was smacking him around. As far as Christian and Matt not being "catapulted" because of Taker, how about guys like Edge, Jericho, Cena, Orton, Benoit, Lashley, Batista, RVD, Angle, JBL, Lesnar, Guerrero, Booker, Show, Jeff Hardy, and CM Punk? Plenty of guys are pushed based on how over they are whether Taker is around or not.

The way its set up now, he can pop up, draw big, disappear, and repeat. This way works well for the WWE. He draws well because he is always resurfacing keeping him "fresh", it allows his 86 year old body to heal, and he doesn't need to be in any good storylines because usually he is either getting a title shot and that's the storyline, or his legacy being on the line is the storyline.Comment

Re: Wrestler of the Decade
Would love to see Sting v Taker, dream match. Only man that I could see break the streak. Saying that, Shawn Michaels may have been the only Taker would have agreed to put over. If Bret was still around he would have been in contention to.
I get a funny feeling that come April we could see Vince vs Taker at Arizona, I shudder to think what the match would be like but you know Vince.

Re: Wrestler of the Decade
As far as best of the decade goes I would have to go with Cena probably. I can see why people hate him because Vince always puts him in the title picture, but you have to respect a guy who has as much passion as he does. Others would be HHH, Orton, Taker, Edge, Angle, Danielson, and StylesNFL-Green Bay Packers
