Hogan and the rock.

Everyone else on this list is debatable by age group. But everyone who is 25-50 should know stone cold andre the giant and macho man.

HIS BIGGEST FEUD WAS WITH LARRY ZBYSKO, BROTHER! MINE WAS WITH ANDRE THE GIANT, DUDE! RECANT YOUR HERESY, MEAN GENE!

that wasn't a ranking DUDE! just a list. And in terms of popularity it could be argued that Bruno is number 1 all time.

This is the list though I would put Hogan in the number one spot. If we are just talking wrestling popularity them I still believe Hulk is the most popular wrestler ever. The Rock is probably just as known as an actor as he is a wrestler. Another wrestler who is fairly known worldwide that is slept on is Sting.

this list comes up every few months i feel like..
(in no order)
hogan
rock
austin
andre
savage

argument can be made for cena maybe, but i think the names above had a larger crossover appeal. as for flair, i dont know how well his name has held up, but he can realistically replace andre on that list.


when its all said and done though rock will be the most popular ever (no bias), he hasnt really seen an end to his mainstream success yet.

If you want household names, there's really only two....
The Rock
Hulk Hogan

Everyone else is up for debate after that. But another name people are forgetting is Brock Lesnar

cena is a bigger draw in wrestling, but i feel like savage was a draw, and he had mainstream appeal. a lot of it has to do with the product at the time, savage had the luxury of coming up during the hogan era, they had so much exposure. i think more people might know who savage is before cena.

but like i said, i have no issue putting cena in a top 5 most popular.

Do you know what the word popular means? Savage is a pop culture icon and one of the most liked wrestlers of all-time Cena is only known by wrestling fans brother.

It would've been interesting though if they put The Rock up in that poll vs Hogan he's the only one that would come close to touching Hogan

I love macho man but savage was never "THE GUY". He played second fiddle to hogan.

Cena been the face of the company for nearly a decade breh.
