This is tough, both of these guys where absolutely fantastic and both of them where smooth as leather, I think Steamboat edges out Hennig in this one, but only just

Mr Perfect for me, he could of been thought of at the same level as HBK imo.

This is a hard one to choose between,I'm going to say Mr Perfect though for the simple reason I have seen more of him and he was perfect.

Mr Perfect

Gone for Steamboat since I nominated him, but this really is a tough one to call.

Mr Perfect for me. Could of been world champ imo

Mr Perfect. Should have been world champ but was never going due to hogan dominated era.
