All Elite Wrestling star Eddie Kingston recently discussed the two wrestlers he deems as ‘perfect’ from the history of the business.

Speaking to the MackMania Podcast, Kingston revealed why he sees Terry Funk and Kenta Kobashi as two perfect wrestlers in his eyes.

‘I don’t think I always deliver, I’m very hard on myself,’ Kingston would begin. ‘So I always feel like there’s more. I don’t feel like I reached where I want to reach. I want to be perfect.

‘I know I’m never going to get there and, to me, the perfect wrestlers are Terry Funk, Kenta Kobashi. Those are the two perfect wrestlers that I’m trying to get to their level. So I know I may not but I’m trying to get there” Kingston concluded.
