Maybe for the wrestling purists. Those other guys may have been able to exercute a better suplex or had more title reigns, but to be honest as far we were concerned facepaints/outfits, intro music, soundbites and the ability to scare Mean Gene in interviews were the most important things. Besides, LOD had that class finishing move where Animal put them on his shoulders and Hawk climbed to the top rope and knocked them off. Brutal
I agree with Watcher: LOD> the rest.
