I remember one match Kurt Angle vs Undertaker that he trully turned into a technical machine! Reversal after reversal Ankle lock after ankle lock. That requires skills!!

So I’ll go with Kurt Angle with this one, but not by far.

Loved WMX7 both guys are ALMOST equally talented.

In REAL (olympic style) wrestling – Kurt
In PROFESSIONAL (fake) wrestling – Benoit

Benoit, technical wrestling is more than just about the moves you can do its about how well you tell a story in the ring and how well your in ring psychology is. Just because angle does mat wrestling moves doesn't make him technical his in ring psychology isn't that great actually he does moves just to do moves he puts no purpose behind them he just does them to be flashy. Like his finisher is an ankle lock but Ive seen in many matches where he doesn't even work on the leg at all and then just slaps it on and the match is over. Benoit on the other hand told a story in the ring and put purpose in the chain of moves he does benoits in ring psychology is top notch and thats what makes him a great technical wrestler.

Honestly i think Kurt Angle,Chris Benoit was more of a non technical wrestler more of and average wrestler, Kurt angle had a better finisher as in finishing not submission, he had a good submission move but chris benoit really made you tap out and was hard to get out of that instead of the ankle lock which you can reverse easily out of quick even though it did hurt like hell. reversing moves was chris definitley and submission was both and signature was kurt angle along with finishers.

Kurt Angle.

For one, Chris Benoit being technical was just a character. Kurt Angle was a real Olympic wrestler.
Also, Chris Benoit’s finisher (or set up/trademark) was him jumping off the turnbuckle. I can’t remember seeing Kurt leave the mat other than him getting picked up.
