    "Would of"...seriously? Repeatedly?? Wow. Ever heard of "would've", as in "short for would have"? No shorthand or typographical errors in that equation, to be sure.

    Owned.

    Sincerely,
    Grammar

    P.S. The children of tomorrow will have far less competition from their classmates. That is, unless they're competing for who can get "would've vs would of", "his vs he's", "are vs our", and "shoot vs shot" wrong the most times. [/soapbox]

    Artest looks awkward, to say the least.

    I was shocked Moses didn't come up on the first page of this thread. Dude would need a translator for the WWE, but he'd absolutely eat your house.

    What no Rodman? Are you serious?

    I remember Rodman and Karl Malone appearing on WCW in the 90's. That was pretty cool. Malone is big, but he doesn't seem like a big personality like Rodman or Shaq however.

    I agree that Artest should have also been on that list along with Starbury. Stephon Marbury is loopy crazy, and would've fit the bill as a crazy high flying luchadore.

    Seriously. Barkley's charisma would have made him a main eventer and he performed a spinebuster on Shaq in RL. :confused:

    Barkley: No brainer..
    George Muresan: a mug so ugly it perfect for wrestling
    Anthony Mason: the perfect henchman plus see Muresan..
    Cherokee Parks: hey, wrestling always needs heels...
    Latrell Sprewell: he already has a finishing move..the 2 handed choke slam.
    'Zo Mourning: If for no other reason, to see little people cling onto his feet.
    Michael Olowokandi: oh wait...is he mercifully out of the league yet??
