SPF is the only celebrity who actually competes and wins. And Boondock Saints is a fucking awesome movie.

And Shepherds we shall be

For thee, my Lord, for thee.

Power hath descended forth from Thy hand

Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.

So we shall flow a river forth to Thee

And teeming with souls shall it ever be.

In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti.

Stu Hart would have likely been practising (and therefore teaching) really, really oldschool catch, with little to no guard game. So if you took a guy like Benoit or Bret in their primes and had them face people in catch wrestling contests they probably would have held their own, but against anyone with an even remotely good guard they probably would have been totally screwed.

William Regal's grappling skill would likely have been much the same. Terrifyingly violent top game, barely any guard work. Not really how we talk about catch wrestling nowdays. Al Bundy would have murdered all those guys. lul.


Although talking of pro wrestlers, I can't even imagine how devestating Samoa Joe's grappling must be. Like if you can imagine a three hundred pound guy whose been training in Judo most his entire life then converted to BJJ, trained by Yoshiaki Fujiwara, spars with Justin McCully at Team Punishment, I mean... Like, holy shit, can you imagine anything WORSE than being in the kesa gatame of a highly intelligent three hundred pound Samoan crushing machine? Fuck that.

I heard a funny story once that chris jericho choked out goldberg in a locker room altercation after a wrasslin match almost all of stu harts students know how to shoot .

i'm of the opinion that he is probably the best celeb grappler based on his accomplishments, but your statement holds no merit unless you've personally known/met/grappled with other celebs

Bret Hart himself had an article in the Calgary Sun a few years ago that detailed that altercation between Jericho and Goldberg in the WCW locker room about 10 years ago.
Chris Jericho choked him out.
