Rey was the most talented probably but I think I have to give Jericho #1 spot for his heel run in '98. Legendary shyt

Eddie would be #3

#4 Malenko
#5 Ultimo Dragon

I was tempted to put Dragon ahead of Malenko but Malenko just put in more work. Dragon was more talented though. Malenko/Dragon at Starrcade 96 :banderas:

Those to me are the big 5

I fukked with Psychosis heavy too

this is tough

Jericho, Guerrero, Kidman, Malenko, Guerrera, Misterio, Jr are my top 6. Order is tough to decide tho.

jericho wasn't a cruiserweight, that's what made it so great. he was a bigger wrestler picking on smaller guys. when he had those shrimps in the lion tamer it looked like it hurt so bad lol.

rey is easily #1, dude blew my mind when i first saw him.

honestly it's hard to rank em, it was such a great division. juvie, malenko, psychosis... shyt was GOAT.

Rey (athleticism)
Eddie (overall skill)
Jericho (charisma)
Malenko (technical skill)
Juvie (holy shyt moments, risks)
Ultimo Dragon (swag with the titles and the manager)

All unique and skilled in their own ways. Ranking them would be a disservice. Nothing was better than watching Nitro (an hour before Raw on the west coast) and seeing the pyro, then the guitar riff and watching some NWO fukkery to open the show, and then a piff ass cruiserweight match right afterward

What a time :wow:
