That's not what being a "ring general" means, but I get your point.Under normal circumstances it's the heel that calls the match, on the grounds that he's in control most of the time and only has to feed the babyface his comebacks. If the heel in question is rubbish, or very green, or is maybe not in good shape for one reason or another, the babyface might well take control. In certain cases - say if you were Steve Austin - you wouldn't let anyone else call your match, because you'd be so concerned about protecting your own image. At other times, you might ask a babyface who maybe doesn't have the same stroke you do to call the match, purely out of respect - I suspect the Flair/HHH match would be an example.It's not a totally hard and fast rule, but yeah, 99% of the time it'll be the heel calling the match.

Without sounding disrespectful (thanks for your response by the way) how do you know this?Most people who have replied to this on other forums are speculating. Are you a worker?Sorry if that sounds rude.

No problem - I'm an arrogant prick. Um, basically I just pay a lot of attention when people talk. I've worked around the business a little bit and I like to take an interest in the actual construction of matches. I dunno...I may be wrong about it all though, and some real wrestler is gonna come on here and verbally bitchslap me for my ignorance.

Can anyone answer me a question about ring generalship please?I've had this discussion with Freaky quite a few times over the years but in the end we come down to opinion and speculation more than hard fact.How is it "decided" (if it is decided at all) who is the ring general? I've heard that a more senior or technical wrestler will be ring general but also heard that it's usually the heel.So if say Taker was to fight a heel HHH who would be ring general? (ie WM X7)Or say a heel Kurt Angle who was new in 2000 vs a senior but non-technical wrestler, say Big Show? (ie Backlash 2000)Would this rule be changed for say an Iron man match where a lot of different spots/mini stories have to go into a match? Will the duties ever be shared?

"I've known too many wrestlers who couldn't separate the character they play on television from their real life," said Hart, who has wrestled professionally, promoted wrestling and trained wrestlers all his life. "Wrestlers start believing their press clippings and what is said on television. It's like an actor leaving the set but still playing the part. There's a delusional element to this. I've seen it over and over again. Some people can't separate the character from real life, and Chris was one of those people.

Scott SteinerAs i want see the return of WCW super heel steiner not a watered down version.

Tough one. Either Michaels, Benoit or Guerrero.....Michaels by a whisker.

wHHHo else?

Goldberg's entrance at Summerslam where he did that stoopid looking kick and fell over! Beautiful.

Piper WM XIX. By about sixty three and a quarter country miles this year.

Bradshaw!!"This is for Nowinski bitch!!!"

With the exception of a couple of people I think it's a pretty damn good top 100. Not much respect for the modern era though. That's a bit of a shame.

Put Momi on Raw! Ratings will go thru the roof!

"Nature Boy" had me on the floor, convulsing with laughter.  "Wooooo" indeed you little shite.  You wouldn't be fit to empty Ric Flair's colostomy bag when he's 90 and in an old people's home.

It's supposed to be a joke, he's not serious, you fucking idiot.

MMMAAAAN you are a fucking LEGEND!

Sweet Jesus on a G-String where the fuck do I start? Does anyone else on here feel bad as a wrestling fan? I aint gonna be able to look my non-wrestling fan friends in the face without feeling like I'm sad!Was it me or was every fucker on that show a socially handicapped spastic? I'm glad it showed how stooooopid these idiots look to the nation! (With the exception of the fact that they're all more talented than Kevin Nash!) However, I'm quite worried about the fact that it showed teenagers generally having a great time doing this shit! If there is a new surge of backyarders (and I truly hope there isn't!) then the blame surely must rest on the shoulders of tonights programme.And why the fuck do these idiots think it is cool to hit each other with signs and shit but not actually know any wrestling? Most can't tell a wristlock from a wristwatch. Or an armbar from a crowbar. One word sums these idiots up. WANKERS! Freaky Jason's "Guts and Gory" documentary was much better by the way! Theiving Channel 4 motherfuckers! I'll shoot them all!Man I'm just pissed off!

I agree with Freaky Jason on a lot of points. I've gotta give it to Angle by a nose. Both are amazing tho.
