will there ever be another wrestler as over as he was?

Never ever

>>1928620
Roman rein dog is more over in India

He was over for a year and half at best. By late 01 he was getting booed off in favour of chumps like Christian, Angle and Jericho. By 02 he was so booed out he had to turn heel.

Does Bryan come close?

bryan was never and will never be a movie star

What's that got to do with how over he was as a wrestler?

>>1928703
What about Cena?

The bald white redneck who beat his wife was repeatedly more over than him on a nightly basis. And still is.

I wanna see heel Rock come back.

Rock was not even the most over guy in his era

>>1928736
>you are now remembering the Bryan/Rock match teased on RAW 1000

Hollywood Rock vs. YES! Movement Bryan would've been

GOAT

>>1928620
Literally no. He was an over as fuck top draw for 4 YEARS and no one will ever top that. This came off the back of 2 years being a to tier mid card

>>1929116
poo in the loo

>>1928736
He was a heel last time he was on Raw, all he did was walk though the back being a prick to everyone he came across, then some in ring segment being a prick.

>>1928620
The Rock never surpassed Stone Cold. Or Hulk.

He's a Solid #3 though. That's not a bad spot.

Hulk is the ultimate universally recognized wrestler. Steve Austin filled that role from 99-02.

The Rock had enough charisma to make a career outside of the carny shit banking off of his stuff with Austin and having a natural charisma that lended himself to Hollywood.

>>1928830
If Rocky got in shape, yes. If not it would've been another stinker like his matches with Punk and Cena.

The Rock isn't just the most over wrestler ever, he's the most over human being in real life.

Can't make this shit up.

I'd probably argue for peak Savage or Andre in terms of being recognisable to the public. Savage had the Slim Jim thing and Andre had the Princess Bride. Maybe Taker because he's been around so long.

>>1929219
Piper as well, he had a decent film career and the stuff with Cyndi Lauper was so big at its time.

Shit yeah, he's a good shout.

It was pretty much a best-of territories.

>you are now realising that /wwe/ of the 80s would shit on Savage for being an outlaw manlet

Rock has always been like that

By that logic Stone Cold was a heel too

>>1928620
Shinsuke Nakamura and Bayley are both more over than the Rock ever was.
