According to WWE, Bruno Sammartino ruled WWE in the 1960s and 70s, Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair ruled in the 1980s and John Cena was the star in the 2000s. With the current decade a few months away from closing, the question has to be asked - who is the best wrestler of the 2010s? There are many options. John Cena who fought The Rock in two WrestleManias, Roman Reigns who has fought The Undertaker, and Seth Rollins who defeated Sting are some wrestlers who fit the criteria. But Stone Cold Steve Austin has someone else in mind.
