5 Active Wrestlers We Could HONESTLY Call The Greatest Of All Time

After a phenomenal run in WWE, the American Dragon is finally back, and it's good to see him.

While seeing Bryan go back to his roots has been a blessing for fans - and his recent five-star match has with Omega is already a classic in the history books - it's important to remember just how fantastic his WWE run was.

The man was given roadblocks every step of the way, but through sheer will, determination and wrestling skill, he managed to transcend those barriers and get one of the greatest privileges any wrestler can have: hoisting two gold belts at the climax of WrestleMania.

As if his incredible WWE run wasn't enough, Danielson has lit a fire in the wrestling world by being one of the biggest stars to jump ship to AEW. This is already proving to be a phenomenal choice, as he looks set to make just as much of a splash there as in his last workplace.

Can you name anyone else who has genuinely managed to climb to the summit of not one but two major companies in the modern era, littering their way with phenomenal professional wrestling and fan support? Probably not.
