Of those choices, I'm between injury returns and props.

If the former could be broadened to include just all returns, and the latter to include animals, it might make my life a lot easier.

There are more than enough props , a TON to choose from so I can't broaden it. Animals could be its own countdown. 

Touché. I vote for props then.

🤯 - off the top of my head and I'm sure I'm missing 1000 obvious ones:

HHH Sledgehammer
Jimmy Hart's Megaphone
Paul E Dangerously's Cell Phone
Owens Slammys
Razors Toothpick
Undertakers Urn
Al Snows Head
Bossmans Nightstick
Mounties Shock Stick
Cornettes Racket
Jarretts Guitar
Jerichos List 
Austins Beer
Carlitos Apple
Mr Socko
Angles Gold Medals
Hacksaws 2x4
Million Dollar Belt
(insert wrestlers) Car
Bob Ortons Cast
LODs Shoulder Pads? maybe?

No particular order there.

Oh and of course Stings Bat , Saturns Moppy , Brets Sunglasses , Barbers Sheers , Godfathers Hoes

Since we were just discussing the Guerrero's, Chavo's Pepe.

I'm good with props

How come people can count as props but animals can't? -_-

Unless we're just objectifying women like it's the Attitude Era.

Because animals is it’s own separate countdown. And we aren’t objectifying them - the WWF already did.

What about less wrestler-specific props like the following:

(Flaming) Barb Wire 2x4 (or Bat)
Thumbtacks
The Announce Table
Hell in a Cell
Ladder
Steel Chair

And of course can't forget:
Steve Austin's Beer Truck
Kurt Angle's Milk Truck
Et al

If you want to vote for them that’s fine. I personally left overarching weapons off because I wanted to focus more on wrestler specific props.

Perhaps we could do a weapons countdown at some point and encompass all those universals tools of destruction.

The beer and milk truck for sure though.

LAST CALL FOR RIC FLAIR RIVALRIES LIST! WOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Also feel free to start sending your props list. That is our next topic.

I'm trying to get a Ric Flair list done but I don't think it's going to happen. I was barely alive for most of the good ones and even then I never really paid attention to him.

Will start formulating my list for props. Will get it in probably tomorrow.

Yeah I probably ended up with more WWE feuds than anyone else on my list , but still went back and discovered some others (like Steamboat) and enjoyed doing it. I'm far from a Flair fan but still looking forward to seeing what people have to say about his rivalries. 

Also have to give a special shout to yours and Foos rivalry with Flair gifs , that should count on this list. It was a ton of fun.

If Ric FlaiRT vs Ric FOOSair isn't #1 then this entire thing is a sham. cc: Foos

Yeah I'm not submitting a Ric Flair list. Working on my props list now to get that in.

Also as a side note I hope submissions and entrance attire get brought up again. Those are two excellent list ideas that need a countdown eventually.

I wanna drop some props and thank you for Shootist for his recent awesome Flair/Windham reviews. I tend to always sleep on Windham in general since the only real time work of his I'm familiar with was shitty shit in his later WWF runs and then the West Texas Redneck stuff... which was not fun in real time.

Anyway, thanks to Shoot, it reminded me to reconsider how good Windham could be, and I ended up replacing my previous #10 with Barry Dub. Here's hoping the extra point is enough for him to crack the overall list so that others who are more familiar with the rivalry can school me even more on how great Barry Dub could be.

GOOD TIMES RT

CONTINUE SENDING IN YOUR PROPS LIST! 

In the meantime , our next countdown will be in honor of 3:16 day , and the great Stone Cold Steve Austin: 


Top Ten Steve Austin Matches 
Top Ten Steve Austin Rivals 
Top Ten Catchphrases 
Top Ten Heel Turns 


Vote away. 

Personally I'd like to do a Matches or Rivals thing again. I like the conversation surrounding those. 

In order of preference...

1. Heel turns
2. Austin rivals
3. Austin matches
4. Catchphrases

What Bake said.

Rivals, matches, heel turns, catch phrases.

What 🤯 said.

heel turn or catchphrase

My big reservation with heel turns is that could it be a bigger countdown? If you follow the same project in the ET forum than at the 10 , 20 , 30 etc... mark I think it's fun to go a little broader and bigger with the countdowns. If not , than that is cool too. I'm down for whatever people vote for.

I think #10 , our first landmark countdown should be factions. But that is a long ways away.

Heel turns or Austin matches.

Just sent my prop list in. It's very late 80s-early 90s WWF heavy. This is the first one yet where I have real regrets about leaving stuff off.

LAST CALL FOR THE WRESTLERS PROPS LIST! 

First Call for Heel Turns List! It is next on docket winning by a narrow margin! 

When going through some heel turn lists elsewhere this one didn't pop up anywhere. Just posting it as a reminder.

Nice. I'm glad heel turns won out. Should be fun. I already know what my Top 2 will be. Prediction: We have our biggest landslide winner yet.

Shootist Jake's 1991 heel turn had already crossed my mind but I remembered it being a different (equally great) segment. I double checked just to be sure and it turns out I was right. Jake's heel turn came during a segment with the Warrior which aired on Superstars 9 days before Summerslam.

The storyline is Jake was teaching Warrior about the dark side in order to help Warrior in his feud with Undertaker. Jake & Warrior had these weird segments for 3 or 4 weeks. Then this happened.....

I sent in a list and took a personal favourites approach, rather than what I think the best or most influential turns were. That being said, that did have some effect on how I ranked/chose.

Hogan's heel turn was #5 on my list. I won't say my #1 but I already have my defense of it planned.

I look forward to fighting with all of you.
