The words underrated and overrated are brandished often wrestling.  Although Dick Murdoch was much respected he could very well have still been vastly underrated.  He was a tough Texan capable of delivering a technically brilliant masterpiece or a full out brawl.

Although he is still a relatively young man, the successful outside ventures of John “Bradshaw” Layfield make is confident that we can include him on our list and that his retirement will likely stick.  It is interesting that he made our list as when he started in the WWE he really didn’t have the makings of a Hall of Fame performer.

The first half of Kevin Sullivan’s in ring career was solid, but fairly non-descript.  He was lean and muscular and was often in the mid card or in tag teams of which ever promotion he worked.  In his mid thirties, Sullivan’s career did an about face with the advent of a devil worshiper gimmick that had never been done before.

More often than not if you ask people who the greatest Native American wrestler, more often than not the answer is Chief Jay Strongbow.  With Strongbow played by an Italian American that answer never seemed right to us.  Sometimes the answer would be Jack Briscoe though since he never wrestled with a “stereotypical Native” gimmick, his name does not come up first a lot either.   To us, the easy answer is Wahoo McDaniel, the former New York Jet who was as popular as he was tough.
