Seth Rollins gave his own list of wrestlers he would put on the Mount Rushmore of pro wrestling while making an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show.
This is an opinionated question as people have different answers to the Mount Rushmore question of listing their top 4 of all-time wrestlers.
Rollins first listed those who he thought drew the most money in wrestling – The Rock, Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, and John Cena.
“Are we talking wrestling or are we talking drawing money because those are different things? In our business, which is the entertainment business, money-drawing is the biggest thing. If we’re talking there, you gotta start with Hogan. You gotta put Cena there, Rock and Austin. Top four.”
This is when he gave his actual Mount Rushmore of wrestlers from an in-ring perspective – Shawn Michaels, Eddie Guerrero, Bret Hart, and AEW’s Bryan Danielson.
“In-ring all-time: Shawn Michaels, Eddie Guerrero, Bret ‘the Hitman’ Hart…number four, controversial pick because he’s still active, Bryan Danielson. I actually think in-ring he’s one of the greatest of all time and I think when it’s all said and done, he’ll be up there with the guys.”
