Well that's gotta count for something.
>>2018342
How did you not hear about him as a kid? I'm younger than you but and not from the US but you couldn't go around the playground without kids talking about Austin and The Rock.

what?

Stone Cold: Most Profitable WWE Champion of All Time
Austin was the highest draw for the little amount of time he was on top. It's easy to forget that he only really wrestled at that peak for like 4 years because of all the time he was off with niggling injuries, the neck being the most obvious.
>"Austin surpassed all of Hogan's records... in terms of merchandising and licensing, and pay-per-view and live events. Without question the most popular performer we've ever had." - Vince McMahon, Owner of WWE.
what did he mean by this?
>>2018509
he meant that, unlike Stevetty, Hogan drew in more than one promotion
>>2018162
This is true, although Austin has alot more pride than Hogan in the sense where he won't go out there years after his peak ended just to shill for himself or to go to TNA just to be on TV every week. Hogan has also only remained relevant the past few years via sex tape and saying nigger, but it all worked out for him in the end I guess because he settled with Gawker for 31 million. Hogan is still the first thing that comes to peoples minds with "wrestling", and Rock is obviously bigger than both of them now. Austin is the odd man out, but he seems very content with his life.
ITT: Autist who failed trying to get /asp/ to hate Goldberg and Undertaker now moves to attack Stone Cold
>>2018562
>It's the "only one person can hate my childhood hero the Undercarder r-right?" guy
Lmao
The Undercarder meme works because deep down everyone knows hes not as big of a deal as WWE claims he is.
The Stone Cold one won't work because everyone knows he was the biggest draw of all time and face of wrestling when it was at its peak
>>2018562
> undercarder mark still crying
>>2018155
Austin has biggest house show attendances, highest tv ratings, most sold t shirts

>ya
>>2018621
>Austin has biggest house show attendances
Nah, Rock does. If Austin wasn't out during most of the hottest year (2000) of the company, he would hold that record.
>>2018709
WWF did all it's biggest ratings in 99
>>2018155
But we ALL know that those 93,000 people at WM3 came to see Savage VS. Steamboat.
>>2018155
Even Cena is a normie-tier meme for fucks sake
>>2018715
Barely. Anyway, 2000 would've been their most profitable year ever if the XFL didn't fuck shit up.
Wrestling profit was $84,981,000 in 2000, but WWE’s share of the 50% of the XFL losses (the other 50% was covered by NBC) was $68,994,000. Wrestling profit was only $68,937,000 in 1999.

Austin took a company with one foot in the ground and single handedly made it's flagship program the highest ratings in the history of the company.
>>2018821
they went public in early 2000
>>2018155
Biggest draw in wrestling history.
Have sex, assclown.
>>2018349
That was Taker AND Austin wrestling, you dunce.
>Austin wasn't the massive draw in 1998 and 1999
>highest PPV buys ever
but that's Cena, 9 of the top 10 have him on the card and he is in the main event in more than anyone else.
>>2018395
>HHH: $17 million for ONE (1) PPV
That's a lot of dimes
>>2018155
Attitude Era
>>2021472
$17 million for a 100k seat venue is actually pretty bad though.
>>2021466
I meant highest buys for a single PPV (Wrestlemania 28)
