#50 - Sgt. Craig "Pitbull" Pittman


Army and wrestling have gone hand and hand since the sixties, so it should come as no surprise that this list of the 50 greatest grapplers would include one of these Patriots.

In Craig Pittman we not only have a man who defended our countries honor, but also the greatest Sergeant in wrestling history. While some may disagree, stating unequivocally that Sgt. Slaughter is the best Sergeant the squared circle has ever seen, those people are morons and should murdered.

Whether Pittman was breaking arms with his patented Cross Arm Breaker, or shipping people into shape by frantically blowing a whistle in their face, the crowd loved him. Had it not been for the obvious racial injustice going on within WCW during his run, Craig Pittman would have been a bigger star than David Arquette and likely would be remembered as the black Rock.

Regardless, he will have the dubious distinction of being the 50th Greatest Grappler of all time and that is an honor no one can take away from him; except for me.
