Bert played it better but Ted 100% sang it better. Same goes for the tinman and scarecrow in Bert’s…. Better acting but Ted’s characters sang better. Well Actually Dorothy in Wiz of Oz sang better than Diana. But no ones outsinging Michael. YOU can't WIN!!
Gotta go with Bert.. He actually acted like a cowardly Lion, the singing in the Wiz was better though of course.. The Wizard of Oz in terms of acting was probably better..
I voted on all your questions and I picked the tin man the original from the Wizard of Oz, with Judy Garland the scarecrow and the Cowardly lion.

Bert Lahr created and defined the role. Everyone since has been a weaker copy.
