Im working on a music video as a tribute to wrestling, However I have never watched a match from pre 84 pretty much and so I don't know the icons. The music I have lined up has a slow part for roughly 1minute, I figure I could have stills or maybe video (only of maybe the 80's, Video of matches pre then are shite quality) as soon as it hits the 90's-current I know exactly what I want putting in.
I guess my question is who were the big stars of the 60's 70's and 80's?

Grump's list is pretty accurate. If you want it narrowed down though to "big names" in the big companies, I think it would look like the following..... (some names could be put in other decades as well)
1960s-
Buddy Rogers
Verne Gagne
Lou Thez
1970s
Bruno Sammartino
Billy Graham
Bob Backlund
Harley Race
Jack Brisco
1980s
Hulk Hogan
Ric Flair
Dusty Rhodes
Nick Bockwinkel
Jerry Lawler
1990s
Bret Hart
Shawn Michaels
Sting
Steve Austin
The Rock

I finally finished the project. The song was way too short to get more people from each era in. It was perfect though.
