Well, I'm gonna throw in my two votes, before going away for a bit.

Macho Man Randy SavageThis man is the reason why I love
wrestling. If it weren't for Randy Savage, there would be no SavageRulz. Mach is simply one of the greatest ever to lace up a pair of boots. The man is Icon, an Immortal, a
wrestling god. His larger than life persona and over the top attire make him one of the most recognizable figures the sport has ever seen. But his skills between the ropes are what make him a legend. Savage was a high flyer before high flying was cool. He was the original underdog: the smaller guy who seemed to take a wrong turn into the land of the giants. However, Savage made sure never to be upstaged, even Hulk Hogan himself lost heat when he opposed Savage. Mounted on my wall behind me as I type this, is an original 1989 mint condition Randy Savage poster with him wearing the old WWF Championship title. I look at that poster everyday and every time I see it I'm more inspired to pursue my dream. That poster fuels me to follow my heart and try my hand at professional
wrestling. Randy Savage is my idol, he's my inspiration. Like I said, without him, there would be no me. He's impacted me that much.

Ric FlairRic Flair is the greatest World Heavyweight Champion of all time, there is
no doubt about that. He defined an era of professional
wrestling no one before him had. He made the
NWA, and he made WCW. Flair's a master of manipulation, a true to heart heel. The man is shrewd. He's the absolute top of the heap. There's no denying all the contributions he's made to this sport. In fact, it can be argued that Ric Flair was more valuable to
wrestling than Hulk Hogan. But that's a different thread altogether! For now, I'll just throw in my nomination for the Nature Boy (no, not Buddy Rogers!)...WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
