But none of them had a POP of the crowd like when the glass broke or when If Ya smell or do you smell hit. I'd even put Foley above some of them.

All popular guys who were huge but if we're just talking pops, who's out popping Austin? Maybe crow Sting in 97 but thats it
Wolf howl got just as big of a reaction

Having a large venue has nothing to do with who elicits a pop as in literally who makes the crowd jump and go crazy. And for Monday nights in and out Austin had the biggest. WCW guys were huge no doubt but we're talking strictly pops

Yes it does if Goldberg was big enough to sell out a football stadium for a weekly show and garner the kind of pop he got vs Hogan. I never heard Austin or Rock get a pop like when Goldberg had hogan up for the jackhammer. I'd gladly take proof otherwise but don't show me a 15,000 seat arena

Listening now. Nash always plays the too cool for school schtich. Thing that's standing out to me, and I've gotten this vibe from other interviews... you can tell he's still legit salty about his feud and promos with CM Punk, and how Punk made him look foolish.
Punk made nash look fooliah? Nash knew punks promo was coming it was scripted. Nash sonned the shyt outta punk by going off script. shyt was the worse sonning punk ever took

You never saw Austin or Rock get a pop like Goldberg in Atlanta? Did you see Backlash 2000, man? LOL

I didn't want to say it, but since you unintentionally brought it up, then I might as well.

the wwf had more crowd-friendlier entrance music. particularly the intros to the theme songs. they generally incited bigger pops during the entrances.

also, wcw & wwf crowds reacted differently towards certain things.

There were 36K+ in attendance in Atlanta, while Backlash didn't even hit 20K.

Lol..we all know 40k was the attendence...Rock drew 40, 000 on Raw in Feb 2000. Lol.

You mean the Feb 1999 raw where Rock was a heel. And people at the time cared far more about Vince vs Austin. Alright

I take that back..I know about the 1999 Toronto Raw where Corporate Rock definitely MEANT MORE than Vince McMahon in that 40k crowd. No not that..the one in 2000 before WM. It was definitely 40,000 and Rock had that green 500 dollar shirt on with the whole McMahon/Helmsley crew in the ring.....the SLUT chants were off the pages and the pop for the Rock was fukking absurd.

I get that internet wrestling dweebs hate certain people, but posting promos by Eve Torres of all people, who hasn't accomplished shyt in this industry, to prove your point is scraping the bottom of the barrel. Listen pal, just because Phil called the man you wish was your father an "ass kisser" doesn't mean you have to go to this depth to discredit the man. The only thing real in this business is the miles you travel and the money you earn. If Dwayne saw your creepy level of stanning, he'd disown you quicker than he would "The Tooth Fairy".

...when just being seen without making their way to the ring". He said this on GOATsso's podcast, he's not lying. Crowds went nuts with just the sight of them in the audience somewhere without them doing a damn thing

What's the name of the podcast
