Greatesr 2nd/3rd generation star

[JimSteel]

There have been and are alot of great 2nd+3rd Generation stars in wrestling

And with two set to debut in the WWE in Jimmy Snuka Jr and Carly "Caribian Cool" Colon who is the son of Puertorican Legend Carlos Colon

Who do you think is the greatest of them all?

MY TOP 5 ARE

1-Brett Hart
2-The Rock
3-Owen Hart
4-Curt Hennig
5-Yokozuna

[sickman]

Wow; I didn't know that Yokozuna was a second gen star.

My top 5:

1. Bret Hart
2. The Rock
3. Curt Hennig
4. Kevin Von Erich (never booked as well as Kerry but better of the two IMO)
5. Owen Hart

[JimSteel]

If I am not mistaken Yokozuna was the son of former WWF Tag Team Champion Sika of the Wild Samoans tag team

[Minotaur]

i would have to say Bret Hart....

But, you know, The Rock.....he is a tight 2nd, as far as "Sports Entertainment" goes.....and actually, on the mic, he might even go above Bret

I don't think Yoko is Sika's kid, but he is related to that whole huge Samoan family.

my top 5:
1) Randy Orton
2) the Rock
3) Curt Hennig
4) Bret Hart
5) Jeff Jarrett

[Joe]

Since the question asks "Greatest Star", The Rock wins hands down, as he is one of the greatest stars the business has ever seen. Bret Hart would definitely have to rate a close second.

1-The Rock
2- Bret Hart
3- Ted Dibiase
4- Kerry Von Erich
5- Curt Hennig
6- Barry Windham
7- Jeff Jarrett
8- Randy Orton
9- Owen Hart
10-Kevin Von Erich

Just a question: I know that Angelo Poffo has been involved with wrestling, but was he actually a wrestler? If so, his kid, Randy, would definitely leap-frog everyone on my list with the exception of maybe the Rock.

[Like Watching Paint Dry]

Angelo Poffo was both a wrestler and booker of International Championship Wrestling (based out of Kentucky). Here's a bio:

Greatest second generation 'star' was definetly The Rock.

Personally I think both Barry Windham and Curt Hennig were both more fun to watch than their dads.

Some second generation names I'd add to the list:

Nick Bockwinkel
Dick Mudoch
Terry/Dory Funk

[HeelofDiamonds]

Great poll!!

My picks would look like this...

1)Kevin Von Eric
2)Barry Windham
3)The Great Muta (son of the Great Kabuki, right?)

[Graymar]

Some that I haven't seen mentioned...

Jake Roberts
Greg Valentine
Jaques Rougeau
Dick Murdoch
Angelo Mosca
Juventud Guerrera
Nick Bockeinkel
Tully Blanchard

I voted The Rock, but Savage and Bret and Ted also had their moments.

[MIDNIGHT RAIDER]

Muta being Kabuki's son is a work.
If we are talking most popular than Rock wins hands down, but if we are talking actual in-ring ability...
1) Ted Dibiase
2) Dory Funk Jr
3) Curt Hennig
4) Barry Windham
5) Greg Valentine
6) David Von Erich
7) Dustin Rhodes
8) Rock
9) Tully Blanchard
10) Randy Savage
Well while I was thinking, bump everyone from #3 on down down one spot for Nick Bockwinkle.

You left out Brett Hart who is a far better wrestler than the Rock even though the Rock does have a better personality(granted he has a team of script writers)

[The Artist]

1. Bret Hart
2.Mr.Perfect
3.The Rock
4.Owen Hart
5.Randy Ortan

[Press Slam]

I always thought Savage was great, he was just total intensity, he always looked busy!
Bret Hart was definately my favourite for execution of moves and ring work/awareness and timing.
DiBiase - just great!
