Rock returning for me. I know Snuka doing that at the time was a huge deal but it is something that def loses its luster.

Hate seeing some of my favorite childhood memories getting just killed in this tournament, but this is clearly the Rock returning... WWE did a great job of keeping the secret and I popped like a little bitch

Was pretty obvious that it was gonna be the Rock. Besides, I never mark out for Rock. Snukas moment made Cage Matches a special attraction and was magical.

Nothing arguably was bigger than the most transcendent wwe star ever returning, and hell the dive off the cage has been topped by Kurt, Jeff, and Benoit

As Chris said, the Snuka cage splash didn't stand the test of time. The Rock returning to WWE for the first time in how many years, this huge star, and the fact it was kept such a secret made it amazing. Even having a female walk out the limo before commercial. Such a shock when that music hit and I marked the fuck out hardcore.

The Rock easily here. Always a fan of his and it was so good seeing him back in WWE after being away for years. Was a nice surprise as well since it was kept quiet.

While it was a suprise I have not been a fan of the Rock's second coming in WWE, and for me the Snuka cage dive is a nice old school moment which has stood the test of time.

It's Snuka's, that is just a iconic moment. I didn't feel that way with The Rock returning for me because I knew he eventually would.

Snuka's splash off the cage was a great moment at the time I'm sure, and it still looks good even to this day, but I enjoyed Rock's return a lot more.

Yeah, I'm not going to lie, I'm not even old enough to remember watching Snuka do that. And when I finally saw it, it didn't seem like that big of a deal to me.
