I remember Brock being a pretty good selling considering his size, also Show for that matter. Cena and, yes if you actually watch him, Alex Shelley are among the worst in wrestling at the moment. Haha I am a huge Alex Shelley fan but I laugh all the time when he sells. He is way too over the top and dramatic. I have always been a bigger Chris Sabin fan though and I always say Sabin is the better worker while Shelley has all the tools to be a top star.

CM Punk comes to mind.
As does Randy Orton, perhaps I'm off here, but he's one of the few that I actually notice when watching a match. I frequently find myself saying "Man, Orton sold that well".

Evan Bourne can sell like the best of them.

Now as far as showing that an injured body part has been worked over, then I guess Bret Hart is okay, but I'll never understand why people think he's amoung the best seller ever. Top me, he's always been very average at taking moves. This of course doesn't take away from his offensive technical prowess.

I'm still in disbelief at his no-selling at Over The Limit. He took 8 chair shots in rapid succession but he was fine and dandy a few minutes later. Maybe we should blame the booking on that but either way, that was ridiculous.

I do have to say about Shawn...he's great at looking like he's in pain, and selling a move for awhile, but he's terrible and being consistent with his selling. He'll easily forget about something he was selling later in the match.
My vote goes to Benoit.

Those two, yes. Malenko was good. Flair is priceless even though he's not really orthodox. Most little guys are good at getting beat up: Bourne and the like. But. My favorite of all time: Mr. Perfect. Go watch his matches with Bret Hart. He made Hart look like a champ out there. EDIT: And I COULD say Foley, but I think he was just actually in pain most of the time from taking such hard bumps. It wasn't really selling. It was real. I don't think Bret needed help making himself look good. Mr Perfect and Bret Hart were excellent wrestlers who brought the best out in each other. Watch the Mr. Perfect DVD and his family talks about how Mr. Perfect talked about how he loved wrestling Bret. I agree that Mr. Perfect was one of the best ever at selling.

That comment had nothing negative to say about Bret. Bret used to be one of the best in the ring, and he didn't need any help. My point was that Perfect made him look even better than most did. And that's a testament to both men. The only thing is that Perfect was the guy getting his ass kicked more in those matches, thus making Bret look even better. So while Bret was very good on his own. He was great with Perfect (among other workers).

John Cena I mean wow! His selling is the most believable.Billy Gunn was good at selling being thrown headfirst into the ring post. When Taker was "human" he could sell pretty good. You're joking...right? Totally serious.... I was being sarcastic
