Rollins
By Scott Keith on 14 May 2018
Since he's shown up on WWE TV, everyone's said that Rollins is a good worker. It's possible that he's finally at that point in his career where's he's figured everything out and put it all together to be transcend from “good” to “elite”, and we'll look back at mid-2018 as the time he did it. Which got me to thinking – When did other guys flip the switch from good/great and become elite?
Flair?
The Ricky Steamboat feud in the late 70s was generally considered the point when he suddenly became a wrestling machine.
Savage?
The Memphis feud with Jerry Lawler.
Shawn?
The ladder match, duh.
Eddie?
The Los Gringos Locos stuff in AAA.
He Who Shall Not Be Named?
C'mon, don't even with that shit. CHRIS BENOIT. And he was pretty elite from the moment he went to Japan in the early 90s.
Angle?
The moment he told Rock to tap or he'd break his fucking ankle at No Way Out 2001.
AJ?
The Bullet Club turn in Japan.
Any others I'm missing?
The Miz. Oh wait, it's never gonna happen.
