Growing up, I was a big fan of WCW's Cruiserweight division. Their roster was just insanely deep now that I look back at it.
They had Jericho(Liontamer is still one of the sickest submissions I've ever seen), Mysterio, Melenko, Ultimo Dragon, Billy Kidman, Shane Helms, Psychosis, Jerry Lynn, Juventued Guerrera, Syxx(AKA, 123 Kid/X-Pac),Eddie and Chavo Guerrero, Lance Storm, and Legends like The Great Muta & Jushin Thunder Liger.
That's just a taste of the Cruiserweight roster. The nWO stuff has been well document ed by now, so I won't even bother with hyping that up(or ranting about how confusing it got toward the end with all of those factions).
Anyway, one of my favorite wrestlers at one point was a guy by the name of Alex Wright. I still think his taunt was one of the greatest things to ever happen to professional wrestling: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxFh4eAGSpU
I used to walk into class everday, doing that dance right as the tardy bell rung. I thought I was the coolest kid on the planet back then.
Other favorites include: DDP's Self High-Five, Scott Hall's shuffle taunt, Jericho's Flex Pin(one foot on opponents chest, then posedown while the ref counts), The Orton Pose, and Mister Perfect's Towel Toss.
What are your favorite pro wrestling taunts? Do you ever do any in public or around friends I like to sometimes walk in a room, look around, and do the Orton Pose for no good reason. It always seems to get a good reaction from people, whether they know where it's from or not.
