Try again

Ok so since nothing makes any sense it's actually Bret Hart, unironically
Saved you the trouble

raped bitch opinion.

>>20563471
I'm tempted to say Ron Simmons in WCW, but i'm not sure how over he was in house shows.

>>20563471
If you're saying, was he one of the first people to actually earn through hard work and abuse to their body and putting every bit of effort into the business, then maybe yes. The deck was stacked completely against Mick Foley. At least who he grew up to be because if Mick Foley went into wrestling looking like the Chad looking guy that he was in high school, I don't think he'd be able to play the angle of being a reject. This wasn't a pity reward reign Mick Foley was truthfully at various times on the level of popularity that Stone Cold Steve Austin was and was more popular than the rock throughout most of the Rock's early career and mid-career

Benoit. In two different companies kek. Foley was a legit top 5 draw in the AE.

1. Austin
2-3. Sable's tits
4. Foley
5. Rock

fine i'll post it

more of an apology/make-good reign tho really
to make up for mania 9. this was vince telling bret he's sorry

>>20563489
He got the title because Bill Watts was trying to recreate the JYD phenomenon.

>>20563471
i know Vince went soft and professional wrestling was over at this moment.

>>20563471
Nah Bob Backlund and Ron Simmons

>>20563484
I guarantee you if Edge wasn't gone for all of 2003, No Way Out 04 would have been his crowning moment. He was a major player on SD from summer 2002 - early 03 and Vince always had a huge boner towards him. Hell, Edge probably also would have won the US title at Vengeance too instead of Eddie.

>dronies turning on Foley as soon as he's ALL ELITE

>>20563471
Mikey Whipwreck was first.

>>20563489
that was just DEI slop

>>20563542
>Foley was a bigger draw than Rock

Dwayne Derangement Syndrome

>>20563502
>the second or third most over guy in the company
>trying to expand into the Canadian market
nope.

>>20566190
keep it up and I'll put Taker at #5 and bump Dwayne down to #6

Lex Luger in 97

Simmons was due to racism lawsuit

Nah he was popular. Chris Benoit was probably the first pity run. Eddie Guerrero was pretty popular but the Benoit run was an actual pity run and Triple H had to carry the entire build by himself because it was like feuding with a plank of wood

>>20563471
He drew money though
