| 7 | 13.02.2024 | face painted legend | 8.0 | If you were looking for a take down or a go behind in a wrestling match, you aren't gonna find it with this guy. That's not what Hacksaw's character was about. He was a brawler who was all about punching, kicking, and just all out fighting with whoever he was in the ring with. To me though, his background as a football player, and his physical attributes were never his strongest suit, despite the fact that he was a legitimate tough guy. His strong suit was his charisma, his ability to keep a crowd up, keep them going, and on their feet the entire match. That and his ability to make chicken salad out of a lot of the ideas presented to him were the key to his longevity and why he was always one of the most over acts in any company he was apart of without having to have a title around his waist. |

| 12 | 12.01.2024 | rntsdl03 | 1.0 | Jim Duggan is one of the worst wrestlers I've ever seen and, worse than that, he was around for a inexplicably long time. He's a prime example of someone who was only over because of the rabid patriotism in the US. The dude couldn't work a match, he couldn't cut a promo and he had no charisma or gimmick but he waved the stars and stripes so that was good enough for fans at the time which I cannot understand. |

| 16 | 21.11.2023 | crs285 | 6.0 | Duggan was a good character. He had the charisma and the crowd loved him. Mic skills were good as well. In the ring for the time he was alright but in the modern era he lacks abilities with his limited move set. He got ridiculous in WCW and he did not have the same aura when he returned to WWE in the 2000s. |

Yes he was over but it was all cheap pop after cheap pop. His gimik at times steped into being just mean spirted. The less said about his time in wcw the better, all i will say is that he foud a belt in a trash can. Atleast he was over tho thats more of a mark down for the dans of the comppnys he was in. Never disliked a wretler more |
| 20 | 11.10.2023 | Akatsuki | 7.0 | Duggan was always able to win the crowd over even if his in-ring ability was subpar. He will most notably be known for being the 1st royal rumble winner in WWE history but what some people overlook about him was the fact that he had an impressive showing against Ted DiBiase in Houston Wrestling in a steel cage street fight match. I've never seen a match more gimmicky lol, but honestly it was an entertaining match and he showed that if the WWF gave him a chance, he could put on better matches, particularly no disqualification type of matches which at the time was not popular. |

He had a nice physique though specially in the 1980s, and could work a crowd. He shouldn't have exposed himself in WWE in the 2000s. |

| 28 | 11.07.2023 | CMFunk007 | 4.0 | Jim Duggan was a good example of how to get over without much talent. His run in MId-South was his best, his feud with Ted DiBiase being outstanding. When he came to the WWF, little kid me in the '80s loved him feuding with the Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff and yelling HOOOOOO! all the time. But he wasn't fun to watch in the ring outside of his DiBiase feud. He followed Hogan into WCW and showed up on Nitro occasionally until that stupid storyline when he joined Team Canada and decided he hated the USA. Vince Russo pretty much ended his career with that nonsense. |
| 29 | 15.06.2023 | mizzysha | 7.0 | I actually like Jim a lot, though it is easy to see why some can't stand him. Good brawler and crowd pleaser, I don't think people appreciate just how amazingly he works as a mid-carder. The lamest thing about him is usually his weak finishes. |

Had some junky matches in WCW in later years but I really dug his match with Vader at Starrcade 94, the best match on the card by far! |
| 35 | 28.02.2023 | xjasondagx | | I see a lot of people rating Duggan based on his late WWF run and his WCW run. Which I get was seen by more people, but you are sleeping on a heck of a brawler by not checking out his stuff in Mid South. He was one of the elite level brawlers of that era. His feud with DiBiase, and Buzz Sawyer were really good. Him and Sawyer had a great pull apart that went backstage on Mid-South. If all you know is the USA! USA! and HOOOOOO! than you don't know that much about Jim Duggan as a worker. |

| 39 | 01.01.2023 | WhatIsLooveee | 3.0 | To be honest, I never liked Jim Duggan. He had a good contact with the audience, but it was rather the specifics of his patriotic gimmick. He made faces and screamed "Hooo" for most of the match. At the same time, he had a more serious persona before and he has a number of good matches on his account, including the famous battle with Ted DiBiasi in a steel cage. In WWF, WCW and later on the indie scene, he became a hostage to his new gimmick, a boring very limited brawler who causes a reaction juat by waving the flag and screaming. |

| 45 | 22.07.2022 | Leth99 | 4.0 | Very generic pro-USA wrestler that can either be bad or mediocre. He never really tried because once he got the american gimmick he was always gonna get cheered. Respect for wrestling in WWE full time at 52-53 yrs old and being acceptable |
| 46 | 17.07.2022 | Sirius3D | 4.0 | Jim Duggan lebt wie kaum ein anderer von seinem Gimmick, denn ringtechnisch war er eher in den unteren Kategorien anzusiedeln... Seim Gimmick, dieser ständige US- Patriotismus in jeder Sekunde eines Matches war mir dann auch zu viel. Ist soweit ich weiß heute aktiv und ab und an mal auf Nostalgie- Veranstaltungen von den USA gebucht.... Stört mich nicht, aber war auch in mein Fall. |

However, I have never ever found myself interested in watching a Jim Duggan match or program, and I've rarely (if ever) been entertained by one. 95% of his matches follow the same lame-ass formula of "early stalling/USA chants - Duggan controls early on - heel cheats - Duggan cheats back - comeback routine - finish" ... most times a disqualification or some kind of inconclusive ending. Not a fan. |

Ich finde und fand sein Gimmick schon immer absolut furchtbar und das konnte wohl auch nur in den USA derart gut ankommen. Abgesehen von seinem Gimmick ist er dann auch noch ein richtig schlechter Wrestler. Auf jeden Fall in meinen persönlichen Top-5 im negativen Sinn! |

| 54 | 10.03.2022 | Conquistador37 | 5.0 | If you've ever been to a live WWF event in the late 80's/early 90's you "got it" because only there does the gimmick truly show it's POWER. having the WHOLE CROWD bellow "Hoooo" and chant "YOUUU EEHHSSS AAAAAY" was the pinnacle of crowd participation for years stacked upon years. His ring work began to decline as early as '88 so by '93 things were already horrifically dire, but even ol' Hacksaw had his working boots on when employed by Watts, so some solid points earned for those early years. The WCW material is a quick dash for "FAST FORWARD" or a trip to the kitchen for a snack. Can I really recommend any Jim Duggan match beyond Midsouth? Uhm. Royal Rumble 1988? 4.5 rounded up, the child in me still likes some of that early stuff. |

| 57 | 25.12.2021 | ALF | 3.0 | Ich würde sagen, Hacksaw Jim Duggan ist ein Paradebeispiel dafür, wie Wrestling funktionierte, als es noch kein großes Internet gab und noch keineGruppierungen wie die NWO das Wort "Gimmick" anschließend nutzlos im Wrestling machten...Man nehme einen zugegeben charismatischen - aber nicht allzu talentierten Wrestler (der nur 3 Moves zeigte ...hüstel), gebe ihm eine USA-Flagge, lasse ihn laut "Hooooooo" brüllen (als Catchphrase, damit es selbst einem 6-jährigen leicht fällt, es ihm gleich zu tun), mixe das ganze noch mit einer patriotischen Einzugsmusik, sowie -GANZ WICHTIG - einem Kantholz (wofür auch immer''') und fertig ist das Rezept für Superstars der Riege "Stimmungsmacher/Publikumslieblinge" der WWF/E der späten 80er bis frühe 90iger Jahre.War ganz lustig nur wrestlerisch zum Vergessen. Genau das ist es, warum ich heutige Superstars wie etwa Austin Theory nicht mag mit seinem "Selfie"-Gimmick. Ich bin schon etwas älter und schaue fast 30 Jahre Wrestling. Und ich finde den Wrestling heutzutage fehlt dieses "Eintauchen" in den Charakter. Wären der Ultimate Warrior und der Undertaker z. B. möglich gewesen zu entstehen in dem heutigen Zeitalter' Ich glaube nein, jedenfalls nicht so authentisch. |
| 58 | 11.12.2021 | Pandevmonium | 1.0 | One of the most useless and annoying gimmick ever. He was also a total disaster in ring, so I don't really know how he could survive so long in the pro wrestling business and even win the first Royal Rumble match ever. |

Hogan had a bullshit patriotic gimmick too and couldn't wrestle either but this guy was somehow worse than him. While this guy didn't even bother getting in shape (even when he did in a rare occasion he still looked bad), his braindead gimmick somehow got over and i seriously cannot wrap my head around that. All he ever did was shouting annoyingly, carrying a flag while looking like a damn potato. Also considering his awful and limited in ring skills, this guy should've been kept 100 feet away from a wrestling ring. |
| 63 | 24.05.2021 | Daigotsu | 2.0 | He was terrible in the ring and got over based on the most mindlessly crowd-pleasing gimmick possible ("USA! USA! ). His mannerisms were like a cartoon character. Not much to grab hold of here. |

| 66 | 21.04.2021 | AnB | 4.0 | The oldest era of wrestling I've seen was in the early to mid 90s, when Hacksaw Jim Duggan was still a regular in the WWF. Honestly, he was never over with me. Matches were slow and dull, and the whole gimmick seemed pretty tame and annoying to me. I never looked him up because I didn't care much, but I always imagined he'd probaby already had a pretty solid career at that point, struck me as part of the "old" industry. I never understood why the WCW decided to pick him up after he already had an abysmal time in the WWF. |

They would just involve headlocks and shouting Hooooo! He was then used as the guy to put over top heels moving towards the main event and in this role is where he had some of the worst matches in WWF history. He then went to WCW and was at first put over like he was a big star but he was even worse in the ring there than he was in WWF. The 5 is all for Mid South. |

| 76 | 18.05.2020 | joshjackal | 0.0 | Duggan is probably my least favorite wrestler of all time. I could never stand him, even as a kid. He in-ring work was awful and repetitive and every promo he ever gave was the same. Shouting "HOOOOOOOO! , " carrying a 2x4, waving a flag, and carrying a flag might get you cheap heat, but it doesn't actually make a character. Oh, and remember when he was in WCW in the nWo era, and his finishing move was to pull tape out of his crotch, wildly fling it around to tape his fist, and then just punch his opponent? Worst finishing move ever. I mean, there are other terrible finishing moves out there, but none of them involved Jim Duggan's crotch sweat. Nobody needs that. |

| 82 | 09.09.2019 | Zo-Zu | 2.0 | His easy going and personable shoot personality is at total odds with his baffling and (at times) disgusting refusal to sell for people or put people over. Possibly generous wrestler of all time, which would make him a flawed but respectable worker a la Austin Aries or Bruiser Brody, but since he's so fundamentally lacking everything else it beggars belief. I know he's nostalgic for a lot of people, but since I never watched him growing up I feel no obligation towards protecting him. Horrible. |
| 83 | 08.09.2019 | ElPolloLoco | 6.0 | Make no mistake about it: Jim Duggan in his heydays was a huge star in the sense that people were literally lining up to buy tickets and see him. Duggan was very basic in the ring and to be honest even in his Mid South glory days he was nothing to write home about when it came to promos, but people were 100% behind him because he played the part of the common man ultimately triumphing through sheer perseverance with such sincerity you could really believe he was just being himself with the volume turned up. Like it happened with Big Daddy it wasn't supposed to happen, but it did and Duggan was smart enough to run with it. WWF hired him in 1987 not to make him a clown, but to help them break into what was once Bill Watts' territory: he was bound to be a top star. But something happened (a few versions exist) and he was turned into some sort of joke character who somehow managed to get over anyway: Jim Duggan was simply too huge to fail in those years. The end came with his WCW stint: while his booking usually ranged from bad to abysmal, his health was greatly declining and contributed to his extremely poor showing in Atlanta. He's yet another great overachiever who had a single opportunity and grabbed it to run with it until he could. |

Duggan was a top babyface in the Mid-South/UWF. and was a step below that status in the WWF. He best days in terms of ability and work were in the Mid-South/UWF, but his biggest stardom came in the WWF. His run in WCW wasn't that great, and it got awful by the end, but that shouldn't detract from Duggan being one of the bigger stars of 80s wrestling. |
