as much as i <3 y2j and angle, this is sadly true.

couple of rock votes, maybe 1 or 2 thesz votes, the others are unanimous or close to it....

i tend to think hogan is outclassed in the f4 regardless of who he faces, but the other 3 all have a chance. my pick ftw is austin (even tho ill very likely vote against him next round)

It's Austin or Flair. Hogan has a decent argument against any of the other three individually, but this voting base won't let him outlast two of them even if he can manage to beat one. HBK is losing to Austin for sure.

I'll be the one going against the flow and vote Kurt Angle. I feel like they are pretty close on wrestling, but I feel Kurt was the more entertaining personality, and thus he gets the edge.

HBK vs. Kurt Angle

Just as good in the ring, much better on the mic, better heel, better face (despite not being that great), and when all is said and done will probably end up having had a bigger impact on the sport when people look back in 100 years time due to his amateur career and olympic gold medal.

Edit - actually, on second thoughts, both would get wafflecrushed in 100 years time by whoever the current flavour of the month was

There have been much worse votes than that. I don't have the brackets at hand but Valentine over Hogan is one that comes to mind.

Snuka was very innovative and was mega mega over at his peak. I voted for Austin fwiw but I can see it.

yeah Valentine over Hogan is objectively worse, but at least understandable from a HURR HURR HATE HOKE HOGAN perspective. And I agree Snuka's innovations and impact are underrated and I could accept him over most guys, but Snuka > Austin is nuts. same guy of course put Scott Steiner > Shawn Michaels, so it's just lead paint apparently.

LOL I didn't even notice someone voted Big Poppa Pump over HBK. He was far superior on the mic, so there's that.
