oh great this thread again.
>>
Hogan and Rock are far above stevetty in terms of popularity, fame and drawing power
>>
why didn't misawa come out
>>
>>16072846
Slim Cock Simp Asswipe was a one dimensional shitter. He could play the anti-hero redneck, but that's it. He completely flopped as a heel and became a comedy act in contrast to The Rock and Hogan who did some of their best work as heels.
>>
>1. Rock
>1a. Hogan
>3. austin
>>
Hogan turning heel was a disaster for the human race on par with the Crucifixtion and 9/11.
>>
Beloved hero Hogan turning heel started the wrestling boom and beloved badass Austin turning heel ended it.

The Dwayne was riding the wave started by Austin when the company was practically dead and The Dwayne was getting cut from the CFL and wearing streamers when he wrestled.
>>
>>16073225
it saved the industry in the mid 90s
>>
>>16073287
>beloved badass Austin turning heel ended it
beloved badass became beloved bitchass and killed the ratings, when the actual draw Dwayne went to Hollywood
>>
>>16073304
Remove Dwayne from wrestling history and virtually nothing changes.
>>
>>16073301
But at what cost?
>>
>>16072846
Rock because he is still going and with Final Boss run change the game prior to the Netflix era and is shopping it to be less gay and more attitude finally saving wrestling with our guy Gerwirz .

>No Rock vs HHH. Gaytch never becomes a main eventer
>No Rock vs austin. austin continues to sink ratings
>No SmackDown.
>No SmackDown video games
>Nobody puts over Kurt Angle, Brock Lesnar etc, because austin walked out like a bitch

Anybody could have taken austin's place at WM14 but nobody could have taken Rock's place at WM 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 27, 28, 29 and 40

>>16072846
Austin is a mid-card shitter who was thrust into the main event to face Vince McMahon when wrestling was red hot thanks to Hogan joining the nWo. He didn't build the audience, nor maintain it. He was just given the top spot and got pops the same way Rikishi and Scotty 2 Hotty did during that time. As soon as the casuals bailed, WWE tried to resurrect the nWo which turned Austin back into a disgruntled midcarder that he killed their push and that was it for wrestling. dead and buried by this shitter. It would never reach that level Hogan created a second time, again.
>>
>>16073869
This is a Final Boss board.
Rock is about to being attitude era back on Netflix and he was attitude era.
- Hogan has revealed himself to be total fucking trash
- Austin is in the middle of nowhere playing with cats
Rock will be President in 8 years

Cena and Cody are still top of that list
>>
While all 3 are obviously great it definitely speaks volumes that wrestlemania is an offshoot of hulkamania and smackdown is an offshoot of the rock.
>>
Austin was not the longest reigning, nor the bulkiest, nor the most famous outside of wrestling but he dominates all other WWE top faces on the mic any day of the week.
>>
Austin still has the loudest pop in wrestling history if I'm not mistaken.

Austin popularized the idea of coming in to whoop ass and lay everyone put with your finisher, which is spammed several times a week on wrestling shows every week for decades now

lmao.. not even the loudest pop of 1999
>>
>>16075087
Nice list of examples you posted
>>
>>16075154
Stinger did it earlier, and way better.
stevetty was a piss-poor copy
>>
>>16072846
>>
>>16075160
Sting is a no dimes mime.
>>
>>16075160
Sting didn't have his music hit then come in and hit his finisher on everyone

>>16072846
No one was bigger than Hogan in his prime. Austin and Rock might have made more money but they didn't have grannies putting up posters and buying Hulkamania paraphernalia and PPVs to support the cause (wich was Hulkamania).

Rock and Hogan are true icons. Guys like austin are several echelons below them.

>>16075628
Fuckin’ Goldberg drew more than Sting.
>>
>>16077039
Goldberg drew more than anybody not named Hollywood Hogan in WCW, so your point sucks
>>
>>16074672
Cena Killed prowrestling

>loudest pop in wrestling history is Dwaynetty getting utterly BTFO by Austin

Poetry.

>>16077171
My point is that Sting is dimeless.
