For a brief cultural moment, Stone Cold Steve Austin was the biggest star in the history of pro wrestling. |

Hulk Hogan was ubiquitous in American culture. He was, as another poster put it, crack for kids. And he did it at a time when prior thereto pro wrestling was a regional redneck niche thing.
Austin had his moment, but is nowhere close to Hogan. |

Also, do me a favor. Look at the promo poster for wrestlemanias I-IX.

But-- although it's not an apples-to-apples comparison-- when Austin was on top, the WWF's TV ratings and PPV buyrates blew away anything Hogan ever accomplished, as did Austin's merch sales.
Austin at his peak was a bigger star among pro wrestling fans, but he never came close to Hogan pop culture-wise. |
