My Take
Marty Jannetty is one of those wrestlers whose career numbers genuinely impressed me: twenty championships across the WWF/WWE, AWA, WCW and ECW is no small feat for a guy listed at 180 cm. Born in Columbus, Georgia in 1960, he worked the full spread of major American promotions during a golden stretch of the business. What I appreciate is the journeyman quality here, the willingness to ply his trade everywhere rather than stay planted in one company. He never needed to be the giant in the room to stay employed and over with crowds. To me that kind of longevity says as much about ring craft as any title reign.
