That's an extremely unpopular opinion, but I'm open to discuss my point:

Imo he wasn't a main-event talent. He was booked like that, but it doesn't prove anything honestly.

There was a need to fill the gap and WWE "imposted" him as a hero on the fans with ridiculous booking.

So... i have a two questions, one for:
guys that consider Austin GOAT: what makes him more iconic than Hulk Hogan who created two wrestling booms (and who actually kicked off AE with nWo)

and another one, for:
guys that consider Austin one of GOATs: basically: what makes him one of them in your opinion? Do you believe that he'd be in the main-event scene without McMahon & Tyson?

While I'm not the biggest fan of Austin's work '98 onwards, to act like he wasn't one of the biggest draws in wrestling history (if not the biggest. Hogan being the other) is absolutely stupid.

He obviously was extremely popular among the fans, but his drawing ability is overrated - he get too much credit for successful PPVs such as WM 14 (Tyson!) or WM 17 (purchase of wCw). That's two different things (obviously connected): being popular and being a draw. Look up to the Icon v. Icon match from WM X-8 between Hogan and Rock. It was the match that transcended business and had a media coverage that Austin-Rock II hasn't; that's a clear example of drawing ability.

You texted 7 posts and none of them refer to what i said in OP. That's also, next to insulting sb, a sign of insecurity, which says a lot, but I'll try to be argumentative here.

You said that Austin is GOAT for you: then what makes him to be a bigger legend than Hulk Hogan?
