Why was this guy considered one of the "greats" of wrestling?

His entire shtick was "cocky male stripper who 'kicks' people" - who enjoyed this shit

Didn't fully appreciate until I got to middle teenage years how much more entertaining he was compared to THUPER THERIOUS Bret Hart. Only reinforced by docs and interviews now where Michaels will laugh about getting his pants ripped off or whatever while Hart is still YSSF and holding back tears about the "Montreal Screwjob"

you need to study up.

Compare him to his modern analogues. You have someone like Adam Cole who moves around the ring similarly and can handle a mic but is just such a tiny little twink that you just laugh ever time you see him. Or AJ Styles, who is a little bit better built, but can't cut a promo to save his life.

HBK had the ring psychology, he had the athleticism, he had the mic skills to carry a main event program, and he was just barely built enough to be believable...not physically imposing, but it wasn't causing cognitive dissonance to see him in there with the bigger guys either. There are not many guys like that who were well above average in just about every category with no major weaknesses.

it's not fair to put goldberg with the others. he was a decent worker. The other three are complete stiffs. All of them would have blown up 2 minutes into this match and even if they had the cardio they still couldn't have worked it:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MW9QpJAjTpk

then there's this. he was still very solid even decades into retirement:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4TBazZ-WMJk

Bottom line is that goldberg can take bumps and work high-impact matches and the other 3 cannot.

CR, I was thinking WM26 in place of 12 but wouldn't argue. You also have other iconic matches even if they aren't the best technically--WM20, the Flair retirement, the Screwjob, multiple Survivor Series matches, multiple Rumbles, the famous Raw matches with Cena and Shelton. Almost no one has a longer in-ring resume.
