Why Stone Cold could never be greater than the rock

[GOATpernick]

So it's '97 and you have to remove either The Rock or Stone Cold from the roster who are you chosing?

You think the WWF could survive the war with WCW minus Stone Cold at that time?

Hell no

Let's be honest.. Austin was that hot because of the same reason Daniel Bryan caught fire.... the rebel card... for DB it was the underdog card... rock did it without no cards... he did it based off charisma alone... No right time right place right guy stuff... that's why he GOAT

Your mistaken if you think a big part of Austin rise was not due to the freshness of the McMahon rivalry.... that was some lightning in a bottle type ish... rock on the other hand rose on his own

I think they have enough bald characters as it is, in the franchise.

Give him a Stunning Steve wig and let him eat

Yet Stone GOAT was shyt hot for almost 2 years with 2 rumble wins under his belt before the Austin/McMahon feud really began

Another one of these threads huh

If it wasn't for the rise of Austin in 1997/1998 the WWE wouldn't have overcame WCW in 1998. Without that momentum there wouldn't be a attitude era (DX, The Rock, Ministry of Darkness).

Like him or not

Stone Cold changed wrestling during that time

The shyt he was doing had never been seen before

 

[GodinDaFlesh]

In terms of pro wrestling, Austin is bigger and more significant, but pop culture-wise no one is touching the Rock, not even Hogan anymore.

Rock was coming wether stone cold liked it or not
Put rock in wcw no way wwf is winning the war

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Austin broke the record for most 10k crowds in 1999.



and then the Rock broke that record in 2000

rock the #GOAT with just half the push white guys like hogan, austin, and hhh got

He may have been the most pushed wrestler in history
