>Hogan: sure brother, i'll put Lesnar over on smackdown>Rock: sure brother, i'll drop the title to Lesnar>Austin: NOOOOOOOOOO I CAN'T HAVE A MATCH WITH LESNAR YET WE HAVE TO BUILD IT UP FOR MONTHS AND MONTHS AIIIIEEEEE *beats up Debra again and quits the company*You gotta admit Austin was being kind of a bitch here
but it's ok when lesnar or punk does it
>>20299847>refuses to face Hogan at Mania because he knows the crowd is gonna cheer for the Hulkster and he can't improvise being a heel>Rock takes his place and goes on to have a legendary match with Hogan instead
>>20299847You do that in the main event of mania he probably wouldn’t have retired if they built the passing of the torch like that like you know Brock’s last match yesterday.
anyone who tells Vince to go fuck himself whenever he did one of these "im just going to bury you for no reason, pal" things is based as fuckThey could've sold a PPV around this match but Vince wanted to punish Austin and Austin rightly told him to kill himselfThat's why the Rattlesnake is the GOAT
Austin didn’t job. Hogan did.That’s the difference in power back then. Hogan had to do whatever they said like a good little obedient dog. Austin said fuck you, barely wrestled anymore, and retired. They tried getting him to come back and job at a Taboo Tuesday once and he said fuck you when he heard that was the finish. Hogan went to TNA and further desecrated his career. Hogan got booed before he DIED because he said nigger and his career is forever tarnished. Also Brock’s career isn’t far off from being tarnished as well. Austin wins. Your Mom is a whore.
Austin could have probably talked Vince out of the finish but he ignored the phone calls and stayed at home
>>20299883>That’s the difference in power back then. Hogan had to do whatever they said like a good little obedient dog.I should have known this was Hogantranny from this retarded line alone and should've stopped reading right here
>>20299847Is there a bigger bitch in wrestling than simp cuckold seethe autism?
>>20299847>KotR QualifierAustin was right
>>20300044Lesnar's title shot against Dwayne at Summerslam was on the line in his match with Hogan, and Hogan still jobbed to him on free TV on SmackdownImagine having too big of an ego to do what Hulk Hogan and The Rock were willing to do to put a younger star over
>>20300005Bret Hart
>>20300086The Rock didn’t give a shit cause he was going Hollywood and Hogan didn’t have as much backstage pull. Austin was 100% justified
>>20299881Simpstin isn't even top 10. Hulk and Ric are the only Americans who are.
>>20300086A #1 contenders match is different than a tournament qualifier. Even then, I would still argue that wasting Hogan/Brock on a tv match was dumb.
I know Austin says he was in the wrong here but he did the right thing walking out. Why would Austin even care about competing in the King of the Ring when he won it years ago and has been a top star for a long time already? It was obvious that the whole purpose was to disrespect and diminish Austin’s status in the company
>>20299847Based Austin, that's why he's the GOAT
>>20300151lol shut up carter you fucking geek your taste is shitgo post about christian more you psycho freak
>guy who learned about corporate bullshit at WCW doesnt let it happen to him in WWF>willing to walk out if the plan stinks>remains so over he still gets promotional shit in modern media
I wish the janitors could ban Carter for a while with the 2 month isp special.maybe the general quality of the posts here at /pw/ will increase
>>20299847Austin was right. This is a mania main event level match. You don't waste that on a weekly show
Hogan only jobbed because he was told that he's getting his win back and then had a fit when it wasn't going to happen. Then he walked out and only came back to beat young stars.
Crawling back to Vince, proves that he was wrong.Same with Bret and Phil
>>20300107Bret Simpson
>>20300911this poster has some good ideas
>>20300086Hogan was 84 years old, Austin was correct it should have been booked for the actual PPV instead of Brock vs fucking Test
>>20300927>Hogan was 84 years oldI guess he was 87 when he still main-evented Summerslam 3 years later to beat HBGay, what's your point?
>>20300950and that was promoted as the main event, what's your point?
Brock would have fallen off drastically if he hadn't leafy at the peak, his voice and his promos are cartoon network tier and he could not let a manager speak for him forever.
>>20300280Yep, that’s my goat
>>20300927Test is the litmus test of pro wrestling>Street Fight vs Shane McMahon at Summerslam 99, Shane proceeds to become one of the biggest stars of his era>kino big man vs big man match at KOTR with Lesnar who goes onto becoming one of the biggest stars of the century
>>20299881The Ultimate Warrior did the same kind of thing.
>>20299847>Brock: i want to but Oba over (no one knows, but i'm goig to retire)>Austin: WAAAAAAHHHH, I'M NOT PUTTING BRICK OVER. I'M LEAVING. HOLLYWOOD IS CALLING
>>20299847Austin was right
>>20299853Punk actually put over all the geriatrics Vince wanted before leaving, and in fact, left even though he was gonna get his win back from Gaytch. Not the same.
>>20300658Punk never talked to Vince again. Didn't seal the deal with him. Try again faggot.
>>20305384>even though he was gonna get his win back from GaytchWorked
>>20299847A lot of people forget that this nigga put hands on Debra less than a week after no-showing Raw, kekAustin walking out clearly had more causes behind it than just "creative differences", dude was starting to spiral out of control
>>20299847And what about it? He was right
>>20299881this 100% there was no reason for Brock to go over Austin on a random episode of Raw in a fucking KOTR qualifier match, except for Vince to play his "get on all fours and bark for me, doggy" games with his biggest star
>>20305046Test fucking ruled. He should've won the WWF title that November instead of Big Show
>>20305416Test had a dimes look but he was too much of an unstable junkie for the company to ever trust
>>20300005>simp cuckold seethe autismmega kek
>>20305319Austin's Hollywood highlights>calling Nelly a nigger on an Adam Sandler movie>a generic buddy cop action flick with fat Steven Seagal>the fucking Smosh movieThat's it kek
>>20299847Brock Lesnar was never a real wrestler
>>20306066You mean Cuck Cold wasn't. REAL wrestling is freestyle not this fake pussy shit.
>>20305412He didnt make Rock lose on Smackdown, also he never punished Rock for leaving for Hollywood. Like with the HBK favoritism, Vince had a sexual relationship with Dwayne. This is plain to see. And Stone Cold don't get down like that. Gimme a hell yeah!And thats the bottom line...
>backlash 2000 675,000 buys>austinetty turns heel>backlash 2001 375,000 buys>business is dead>hogan shows up and austinetty doesn't main event a single ppv again>takes his ball and goes home to beat his wife
>>20299847>Putting over someone in a qualifying match
Dudes are really in here defending Austin with>he was right to walk out because doing the match as a KOTR qualifier on free TV was bad business! And because Vince was trying to disrespect Austin and diminish his status!You know what's really bad for business?You know what really diminishes a star's status in the company?That star beating the shit out of his wife (who was also heavily featured in the company around that time), and getting arrested for itIf he was so concerned about WWE's business and his respect and star power and whatever else, then he never should have put hands on her LITERALLY RIGHT AFTER WALKING OUT OF THE COMPANY
>>20299854>then uses that heat to come back as heel with the mothercanuckers promoGotta love the Dwaynster, baby
Austin knew that Vince never really wanted him as the top guy and was forced to by circumstances, with WCW gone Austin saw the writing on the wall and Vince going back to pushing guys he wanted to get topped by or who had "mainstream appeal".
>>20305420Many such cases, reminds me of Scott Hall
