The Greatest Wrestlers and Wrestling Personalities Of All Time - Listed

It's no secret that I'm a big fan of Professional Wrestling,explicitly Wrestling from the 70's,80's,and 90's. So today,I'm gonna be listing every single Wrestler that Can be considered the Greatest - at least up to the 2010's. And I'm gonna be doing it by Decade.

And just for fun,I'll also be listing Managers and On-Air personalities as well. 

Note: I Never Ever watched AEW,Impact,or any other Modern Wrestling Company and never will. I'm also not gonna be listing any Wrestlers from AJPW,NJPW,AAA,CMLL,or Any of the Indie Promotions. Why? Cuz,I never watch them either. All Modern Wrestlers listed will be WWE only,cuz that's the Company I'm most familiar with nowadays.
