Remembering WWE superstars

by Nicholas A. Levack

Created on: April 23, 2008   Last Updated: April 25, 2011

The WWE has seen enough superstars to fill a country with. Which isn't saying much since there are quite a few small countries, one in particular being a country called Pitcairn (a small island in the Oceania region), which has only fifty residents on average. Actually, Pitcairn is a territory of the United Kingdom, so never mind. But I digress.

My point is this: the WWE has had a lot of superstars, and some have risen to the top and stood not only as stars in the WWE but recognized individuals all around the world; while others still managed to dazzle the fans without ever truly saying their names up in light. This article will not just cover the greats, but those who had their own periods in which they made their impacts - even some of the smaller ones. Some of these superstars will be retired - perhaps even a few deceased ones - while others are still active in the ring, some even just seeing their best moments. Unfortunately there are far too many superstars to pay homage to, but in the following I will give respect to all those that immediately come to mind.

Al Snow: This superstar is best known for his impact in the Hardcore division of the WWE, while also being the head instructor of the televised training program, "Tough Enough," that the WWE had around the Attitude Era. Al Snow no longer wrestles in the WWE, but he presently is sticking to one of his other great loves: teaching the superstars of tomorrow.

Matt Hardy: Most people when remembering The Hardy's might group them together, but I choose to address both of them individually, as each of them had his own unique impact in professional wrestling. As those of us who have not been living under a rock for the past ten years know, Matt and Jeff Hardy formed about a decade ago to make one of the greatest tag teams in WWE history. But though they might not be the very greatest, The Hardy's should easily be recognized as the most breath-taking team to ever make the guy who sets up the replays go crazy from having so much work to do.

Matt Hardy specifically has played the role of a heel more so than his brother as. Though I can't ever really remember when Jeff was, so whatever. Matt had his period when "Version 1" was really becoming prominent, in which he won his first Cruiserweight Championship; a feat he probably won't relive since he put all the weight he lost to fit into the Cruiserweight division, and then some more during the time he was out-of-action. But the rivalry that probably showed Matt
