"_______ made _______ " wrestler X making wrestler Y

[Kidd Dibiase]

Foley made Orton

Bret made Owen

Samoa Joe/Punk made each other [fair argument to be made that Hero/Punk made each other]

 

[KingBeez]

Not on topic, but I think HHH revitalized HBK. That SS match/feud was a perfect feud for HBK to comeback to wrestle, and both stars played their part perfectly

 

[KingBeez]

Possible controversial opinions:

Eddie made Rey
Kurt made Benoit
JBL made Cena

 

[JohnB]

Flair - Steamboat
Savage - DDP
Vader - Foley
Eddie - JBL
Taker - Jeff Hardy
Nick Bockwinkel - Curt Henning
Jumbo - Misawa
Nagata - Tanahashi

 

[8WON6]

Vern Gagne made Hulk Hogan

 

[Hoss]

Angle didn't actually make Cena, but he launched him.

A plate glass window sacrificed itself to make HBK.

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

Possible controversial opinions:

Eddie made Rey

I definitely agree with this. In wcw and wwe

 

[Playaz Eyez]

so when the DX invasion of WCW was happening, the fans were thinking HBGOAT coming back at any moment and it had nothing to do with Kang being the leader?

men lie women lie merch numbers don't

Yea, just like Desiigner's streaming numbers DX was selling merch cause of DX, not HHH. He was never even the most over person in any iteration of DX.

The best selling merchandise behind The Rock and Stone Cold was the New Age Outlaws during that era.

I don't like the word 'made' here
Legitimized would be better
I.e.
Rock Legitimized Brock

BTW
Cena was never Legitimized in my eyes
He was more or less brought together with the souls of years passed jobbers
Hes like a wrestling philosopher stone

X-pac and Road dogg got the 2nd version of DX over as cool and fun
Foley got HHH over as a legit main eventer
Bret made Austin legit. it was a big deal that Bret choose austin as his come back match and feud. in his return promo, he called austin the best wrestler in the world, while hbk was champ.

if xpac doesn't come back from wcw and the outlaws don't join dx...hhh's career would have been he got lucky with who he was friends with his entire career

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Triple H made Batista

Kurt Angle made John Cena

 

[Alexander The Great]

I disagree with Foley making the Rock.

The Rock made The Rock.

Same with Austin. Austin made Austin.

yup. Rock was already legit by the time he had that mankind feud. that was kind of a placeholder feud to get to mania vs austin

Same could be said for Kevin Nash.
