WWE champ names wrestling Mount Rushmore with John Cena and The Rock SNUBBED but legendary tag-team named
WWE champion Gunther has revealed his wrestling Mount Rushmore – but there is no room for John Cena or The Rock.
There has been a trend of picking four names that best represent a sport in a comparison to America’s natural memorial sculpture.
And SunSport posed the tough question to World Heavyweight Champion Gunther ahead of the WWE’s UK tour.
The Austrian picked Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Eddie Guerrero and Kurt Angle as we help break down what makes them so iconic.
Shawn Michaels
One of the stars of the 1990s, Michaels is considered one of the greatest performers in the ring.
He held the three-time WWE champ who shared legendary rivalries with Brett Hart, Cena and The Undertaker.
Michaels remains in the WWE as a Senior Vice President of Talent Development Creative, overseeing the new era of talent.
Triple H
The Game – who formed the popular tag-team group DX with Michaels – is a 14-time champion.
He had memorable feuds with the likes of Cena, The Undertaker, and Brock Lesnar and is now one of the top chiefs at the WWE.
Triple H is married to Stephanie McMahon and current chief content officer and head of creative for WWE.
Eddie Guerrero
Guerrero remains one of the most popular WWE stars of all time known for his sneaky wrestling tactics.
He held the WWE title and famously the tag-team belts with Rey Mysterio and had iconic matches against Lesnar and Kurt Angle.
Guerrero sadly passed away aged 38 in 2005 after due to an acute heart failure.
Kurt Angle
The American won wrestling Olympic gold in 1996 before making his move to the WWE.
He had classic matches with Lesnar, Cena and Michaels and captured fans’ attention as a brash heel.
Angle called time on his career in 2019 losing to Baron Corbin at WrestleMania 35.
