Clearly it's X-Pac.

I met him IRL in Nottingham of all places. Was surprised how tall he was. He did have his wrestling boots on.
(Pro) Wrestling is about performance, and X-Pac really was a performer! He just didn't have the physical size that was demanded of the stars of his era.
Speaking of performance, The Rock was always entertaining! His fights didn't really feel so much like wrestling though - the fight should be a tightly choreographed duet between two sportsmen - almost like ice skating.
I'm struggling to pic an all time favourite - but it will need to be a wrestler that performed a great persona as well as great technique with his (or her!) opponents.
Mick Foley is probably worth a shout for the performance aspect. Taker had some good matches with him. Very long career too. I found the 'walking the rope' quite spectacular too.
