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

And WWF didn't "win" against WCW. WCW dominated even during Austin's prime years. WCW imploded bc the inmates were running the asylum and everyone just went back to WWF.
Seriously lol @ the retarded theory that Steve Austin defeated WCW and did so by himself. |

A million guys were better in the ring than Hogan including Steve Austin. But that's not the point of the thread. It's who was bugger at their peak.
Hogan WAS wrestling for 2 decades and transcended it jnto other media. Ask anyone across 3 generations to name 1 wrestler they'll say hulk hogan. |

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. |

Austin had a couple cameos. Ok. Rock and Cena had legit film careers. What's that say about whether Austin was bigger than Hogan?
Also, do me a favor. Look at the promo poster for wrestlemanias I-IX.
That's the difference. |

in terms of mainstream recognition i agree with the post above that Dwayne has probably surpassed them both. Bautista might get there someday but <><><>DEM CHAINZ<><><> are hard to break |
|
Date: February 6th, 2023 7:41 PM Author: Disgusting Soul-stirring Partner Hogan is the bigger pop culture icon, easily.
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. |
