That shyt was reckless as fukk. Hated him doing thatHis moonsault off the cage says different
Never really liked it, honestly. Then again, I never got into Daniels like that other than his Fallen Angel gimmick.But it ain't the Best Moonsault Ever
Agreed 100%.

The obligatory "TSC treats Kurt like gawd" thread 
The most talented wrestler ever. Didn't reach his full potential, not my top 5. I'm too lazy to post the same shyt again so I'll just c/p what I wrote last year

To me, it's about a combination of story, drama and crowd reaction. At some point of his career, Kurt realized that crowd popped big for a lot of suplexes, reversals, nearfalls and a fast pace; so he decided to throw the story of a match to the bushes most of the time so he could do the other things that popped the crowd (because they looked cool, were executed very well and had a quick pace).
There's nothing wrong with it because the fans obviously loved it and he's regarded as one of the best to ever do it - specially here in TSC - but to me that was kinda lazy on his part because he could do so much more when telling a story, every once in a while Kurt could pull off an amazing match with great depth. But that was the exception and not the rule. I've seen enough from a bunch of other wrestlers that didn't have the execution nor the pace of Kurt, but surpassed him in creating drama due to the story they were telling (and not how a suplex or move looked) and had the crowd just as engaged. And to me, that has more value than what Angle did most of his career.
I realize this sounds way too nerdy but when grading greatness I can't help but go there. Kurt was really fukking good and a shyt ton of people will read what I just wrote and think I either have a shytty taste in wrestling or don't know what the fukk I'm talking about

If you think you can come up with a Top 5 wrestlers list and exclude Kurt you must not have given it proper thought at all... I think besides Eddie Guerrero he is probably the most talented wrestler in history.
All time I could list at least 15-20 that were better than Kurt. In the past 15-16 years though? He'd for sure be in the top 5.
