They're no more subjective than wrestling. Wrestling is basically theatre. It's absolutely comparable to art and literature, in this context.

In my own league.
I think we reached a new level of delusional.
Y'all really in here sh_tting on Mick Foley, Kurt Angle (I think even his name was brought up), and other guys who were known for their ring work for The Rock?
TSC stannery for The Rock knows no boundaries.
This is coming from somebody who is a fan of The Rock.

Cena is actually one of the greatest ever in ring

Why the fukk are yall still caring about the happenings of the rumble 99 match. It was 17 years ago. Both sides were not perfect. It happened. Its over.
And For the last time stop using a past his prime part time wrestler full time actor Rock as a basis for your argument. Its dumb as fukk. Rocks recent run is not the measuring stick for his entire body of work in the ring and on the mic.
Rock was a good worker and a good wrestler that played up to his style, charisma and character. You dont have to call him the greatest in ring wrestler who had 5 star classics and could do technical classics moves and flippy shyt off the top rope to say that. He had some great matches. Some good ones. Some bad ones. The star ratings is all subjective opinionated bullshyt. Big deal.
There is no revisionist history. No delusions. And just because R=G is doing his thing in here doesn't mean it reflects an entire fanbase thoughts. Ask any of the great wrestlers who know their shyt and was actually in the ring with Rock and they would say the same about his work. Who cares about 5 moves and what online nerds talk shyt about. Its lame when anyone gets that flack. Hbk cena punk all the top stars got that shyt.
Point is. Rock was a good worker and he did as good enough as he needed to do.

Rock the truth and all... But OP got some points....If i have to fix your lame barebones moveset in every damn WWE game dating back to the 1st smackdown....then yea your in ring work probably wasnt stellar.....muhfukka be havin like 9 different samoan drops
I said he had one classic? Nah..you just took it that way and looked up other quotes where i put over other All time greats. Youre stupid and a low brow poster...so its to be expected. Youre not the brightest guy here and have a ton of comprehension issues...which explains why u have went ghost and into hiding most of the year with no D Bry around. Gimmick poster.

A bad video game producer is the Rock's fault? News to me
Known for their ring work? Kurt Angle is a motherficking nondraw nobody who used to copy Benoit in his prime. He aint no Rock and has never, ever been on his level. His matches are nowhere near as good or as legendary as the Rock. He no sells, relys on spots, could only do comedy heel work, and oh yeah...fell the fukk off after 2004. They put him under Cena and Eddie as a utility guy and he's known as some all timer? Youre thinking of Macho Man as someone known for carrying and being the best.I think we reached a new level of delusional.

Foley? Holy $hit..all he did was fall off cages, get powerbombed by Vader on concrete...do barbwire matches..he's an idiot. Only thing he ever talked about his whole Attitude Era main event run was the HIAC fall from the Taker match...its like his version of Jericho's I beat Rock and Austin in the same night.
Rock and Sock was the biggest thing Foley was ever apart of...being the Rock's lackey. A sidekick. A punchline for jokes. That was his worth. Sad.

This is stupid. Every week, theres a dumb ass post about how someone great isnt great.
By your logic Bruno Sammartino isnt great. Nick Bockwinkel isnt great and so on...
The Rock worked a good big mans style, flips and cartwheels and fake PAINLESS holds do not make you a good wrestler. I hate this new generation of fans. This flippy shyt is the worst thing to ever happen to wrestling to me.
You dont need to be able to flip to be a good wrestler, its not fukking acrobatics. You dont need to have a ton of moves. Macho Man had 5 moves, Ric Flair had 5 moves still were great.
You just have to have people engaged and tell a great story. THATS ALL. However u chose to do that is on you. Thats what makes wrestling good a contrast of styles.
I love to watch old wrestling way more than nowadays, the matches made you actually FEEL. Thats why the crowds are disengaged now. THERE IS NO FEELING...
The Rock is great in the ring, one of the best EVER...
Because of his FACIAL EXPRESSIONS, His RING PLACEMENT, SELLING, TIMING ETC.
Those are the things that make you great.
NOT A TRIPLE AXEL SOMERSAULT INTO A 5 STAR HEADBUTT, HAMMERLOCK
fukk outta here...
