Randy Savage, his run in Memphis in 83 and 84 and then WWF from 85 through 87 is one of the greatest runs in wrestling history
His intensity in the ring and on the mic were unmatched and his elbow drop was a thing of glorious beauty
Nikita Koloff
His run may have only been a few years but he was such a vicious monster sent straight from the USSR with one mission, to destroy Ronald Reagans America with his devastating Russian Sickle clothesline
He was the perfect heel for that time
Road Warriors
They didnt have any skills other than rushing the ring and beating the shit outta their opponents with slams and punches but thats all they needed
They were post apocalyptic beasts with a look that had never been seen before and they changed tag team wrestling forever with the countless imitation Warriors that followed
Powers Of Pain, Demolition, Star Riders, Blade Runners, Master Blasters, etc.
Every promoter needed their own Road Warriors
Ric Flair
The limousine ridin, jet flyin, kiss stealin, whealin, dealin, son of a gun
Flair had a legendary feud against the Von Erichs in the early 80's and then, later in the decade, Flair and the Horsemen ran roughshod over Jim Crockett Promotions, dominating the hottest territory in the country, beating some of the most beloved babyfaces in all of wrestling and giving some of the best interviews in the history of the business
