Austin is the only reason many people started watching wrestling. Why else would anyone care about man drama?

>HHH push killing the buyrate
Stephanie chose well.

>Austin is the only reason many people started watching wrestling.
Nope. Raw+Nitro were getting 10m viewers per week in 97. Austin drew the Nitrofags, never was a mainstream mainstay like Rock.

>>1795465
Are you sure you have the right year? The Rock was in the main event for both of those and Austin wasn't even in a match for either of those.

>>1795465
Austin was the main event of Survivor Series
explain that

>>1795506
Austin was in the rocks corner at backlash and unforgiven was his official return

Posting a man with a fedora does not make a true statement any less true.

2000 was the best overall year in WWF/E history. Meme away, but it's still true.

1997 was

>Bret getting BTFO

1998 was actually objectively the best year of wrestling.

in terms of storyline it's got to be, Austin vs Vince is the GOAT feud

>>1795583
1998. The best year is the one that reverses the trend of bad ratings and increases them, not the year of best ratings.

I like how you said that as if it's a fact.

>>1795594
1997 is so weirdly anarchic

The ECW invasion is so atypical of a WWE product
