15 Best Ever Storyteller Wrestlers

4. The Rock

The Rock may arguably be the best talker the industry has ever seen; winning all the major titles and participated in some of the biggest match-ups in the company€™s history. Today, he finds himself as one of the highest grossing movie stars in Hollywood. And Rocky€™s acting skills definitely helped him in the ring, and so made him more than capable of delivering a story worth watching. Ask anyone, and they€™ll tell you his best match was against Steve Austin at WrestleMania 17. The story of the match was as personal as it gets, with the two at each other€™s throats after a rivalry involving Austin€™s wife, Debra. The two were out for blood, and it didn€™t take long to get their wish, busting each other open with the ring bell early on in the No DQ Match. They also used each other€™s finishing manoeuvres a number of times, for the sake of humiliation. The match ended with a huge shocker, with Austin turning heel and pummelling his opponent with sixteen chair shots, before making the pin and shaking hands with the devil himself, Vince McMahon. This came after The Rock showed tremendous resiliency, kicking out of several Stunners with the hopes of bouncing back and defeating his nemesis. This showed that actions do indeed speak louder than words in WWE, with the fans then siding with Rock after this epic showdown.
