1. Eddie Guerrero
A lot of talent were on par with one another in this period of time, but there was one man who finally got his due after years of working in the business and it was his amazing psychology and character work that finally sealed the deal.
Eddie was always counted as one of the elite in between the ropes, but it wasn’t until spending the tail end of the Attitude Era in the midcard that he finally jumped up into title contention and it was his super charismatic character that got him there.
The ‘Lie, Cheat, Steal’ gimmick was beloved by fans and made Eddie the top guy in the company for some time. With his admittance to using what would usually be heel antics sprinkled with a little Latino charm, Guerrero got over big time with the WWE fans who remained enthralled by Guerrero and hung on his every word every time he got a hold of the microphone.
His feud with erstwhile villain JBL was one of the hottest feuds of the era and marked the moment where Eddie’s character work and mic skills finally matched his incredible in-ring skill.
