WWE HOFer Arn Anderson Shares His Mt. Rushmore Of Pro Wrestling

With a career (both in and out of the ring) spanning more than four decades, WWE Hall of Famer Arn Anderson remains a first-hand witness to many of wrestling's all-time greats. Which four sit atop his Mount Rushmore, though? On a recent episode of the "ARN" podcast, Arn Anderson provided an answer.


"You have to go [Ric] Flair. Anybody that doesn't give [Hulk] Hogan credit for changing the marketing and the way people view the business at that time, you have to go there. I think you got to put Ricky Steamboat because seeing him was special, was so incredible. That fourth spot, I guess just because of, and to this day he's given credit for this contribution, selling, Ricky Morton ... Here's a guy, Ricky Morton, who looked 12 years old, but he would bring emotion into his selling in the match that no matter who the heels were, they had heat."


Of the four faces etched on Arn Anderson's proverbial Mount Rushmore, Ricky Morton is the only active competitor, having most recently wrestled at the PW Mid South's Rock N Roll event alongside his son, Kerry Morton. Kerry Morton, of course, is also a former rival of Arn Anderson's, as the two repeatedly face in tag team matches pitting The Rock 'n' Roll Express (Morton and Robert Gibson) against different variations of The Four Horsemen, which included both Arn Anderson and Ric Flair. Arn Anderson shared the ring with Hulk Hogan and Ricky Steamboat on several occasions as well, with the former notably meeting him in a War Games match at the 1996 WCW Fall Brawl event.


Thank you to "ARN" for the transcription.
