I'm talking about U.S states, so don't say Calgary. And don't say parts unknown, even though some fine wrestling talent are from there. I say Pennsylvania, they gave us Kurt Angle and Shane Douglas.

Minnesota: Curt Hennig, Jesse Ventura, Brock Lesnar...

or

North Carolina: The Hardy Boyz & Ric "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" Flair


EDIT: AND CALGARY IS A CITY. CITY! ALBERTA IS A PROVINCE! NOT A STATE, NOT A CANADIAN STATE, BUT A PROVINCE.

But damn near everybody is from Texas. Austin. Michaels. Booker. Taker. All the Guerreros. Uh, Dustin. Dusty. All of the Fighting Funk Family. Bradshaw. Er, Nidia. See? Both quantity AND quality! Austin and Michaels alone beats Pennsylvania's Angle and Douglas.

Texas has to be up there.
Austin, Booker, Eddie, HBK, to name a few.
I'd put those four against any other.

Don't forget Texas, with Austin, Taker, Michaels, The Funks, the Von Erichs (I think) and MANY others.

But, Pennsylvania also has the Sandman and isn't D'Lo Brown from there too. Wait, I think Albert is from there too.

You can't go against Texas on this one. With an outside shot to North Carolina or possibly Minnesota?

You mention the state of Connecticut without mentioning The Mean Street Posse?

I think Connecticut has to win hands down since that's where Vince McMahon is from.

I'm gonna' agree with Texas on this one. But, are we including where they were born, or where thet live now?

Because if so, was Rock born in Florida? Because if he was, he AND Hogan are from there and you gotta' believe that Florida produces some pretty OVER guys. hehehe.

Also, since I'm from Ohio, I'm going to have to say...

Ohio. Why? Because it gave us the greatest walking gimmick ever. Savage, brother. Savage. So here's a big OH YEAH to OH-I-O!

Gots to go with Minnesota on this one. After all, the question was which state gave us the BEST wrestlers. Curt Hennig, Nikita Koloff, Rick Rude, Tom Zenk. Actually, those four weren't just from Minnesota, they all attended the same High School! What are the odds... Four guys in my top 20 favorite wrestlers of all time went to high school together.

And if you wanna get technical, the entire WWF McMahon Family stuff all started in NWA Capitol Wrestling operating out of New York State and more importantly Madison Square Garden. I'm pretty sure all the McMahons are from somewhere in that area, they only live and work in Connecticut.

My home state.

Maine.

Think about it. Tony Atlas. Scotty 2 Hotty. Little Louie the midget lumberjack! And for you old timers, Man Mountain Mike graduated from my high school, Traip Academy. Dig it.
