That Montreal pop is definitely louder and longer than the Rock one at Backlash, but I'm just happy to hear crowds react like in general so it doesn't matter to me.

On same levels of volume the Backlash pop is louder. Especially during the spinebuster and pinfall, nowhere does Hogan’s volume jump that high.

There seems to be a hearing issue on your end, perhaps I’d suggest an ear doctor and a hearing test.

I'd definitely suggest you see the doctor because it's not even close how much louder the one in Montreal is. :heston

Hogan ovations were over 5 minutes continously and definitely louder.

The ears are not subjective.

Everyone knows that the Franchise John Cena had the biggest pop of all time at the 2008 Royal Rumble. You can't see me!

Objectively isn’t, volume of Hogan pop doesn’t not reach anywhere near the highs in volume levels of Rock’s spinebuster and pinfall at Backlash 2000

The ears are not subjective.

Hogan was indeed a longer pop, but lower in volume. a great sustained ovation, but nowhere near as loud a pop as Rock’s spinebuster, people’s elbow and pinfall at Backlash.

people were just mad because they can't deal with the passing of the torch. The Undertaker is washed and we are in the era of the big dog now

You're just straight wrong on this one, but that's ok, I added a poll. We'll see which pop was the loudest. :hayden3

Everyone vote in the poll now!

A subjective poll from a niche forum that has less than 5,000 members doesn’t disprove objective audio levels nor does it cure your hearing deficiency. You need actual evidence and were incapable of refuting the objective audio levels in the video.

I can make a poll on this website asking members who had more ratings victories head to head in 1999, Rock or Austin.

And I’d guarantee you Austin would win, yet objectively Rock had more:


The Rock vs Stone Cold Steve Austin Monday Night Raw ratings Head to Head:

January 4, 1999 - Rock - 5.9, Austin - 5.1
January 18, 1999 - Rock - 6.1, Austin - 5.1
January 25, 1999 - Rock - 6.4, Austin - 5.8
February 1, 1999 - Rock - 6.0, Austin - 5.7
February 15, 1999 - Rock - 6.8, Austin - 6.8
March 1, 1999 - Rock - 6.2, Austin - 7.6
March 8, 1999 - Rock - 6.4, Austin - 6.1
March 15, 1999 - Rock - 5.4, Austin - 5.4
March 22, 1999 - Rock - 7.7, Austin - 7.7
March 29, 1999 - Rock - 6.8, Austin - 6.8
April 5, 1999 - Rock - 7.2, Austin - 7.2
April 12, 1999 - Rock - 6.5, Austin - 6.5
April 19, 1999 - Rock - 7.1, Austin - 7.1
April 26, 1999 - Rock - 5.6, Austin - 6.8
May 3, 1999 - Rock - 7.4, Austin - 7.4
May 10, 1999 - Rock - 9.2, Austin - 9.2
May 17, 1999 - Rock - 7.3, Austin - 7.8
May 24, 1999 - Rock - 7.3, Austin - 7.3
June 7, 1999 - Rock - 7.1, Austin - 7.0
June 14, 1999 - Rock - 6.8, Austin - 7.0
June 21, 1999 - Rock - 7.4, Austin - 6.2
June 28, 1999 - Rock - 6.9, Austin - 7.3
July 5, 1999 - Rock - 6.6, Austin - 5.3
July 12, 1999 - Rock - 6.7, Austin - 7.2
July 26, 1999 - Rock - 7.8, Austin - 7.8
August 2, 1999 - Rock - 6.7, Austin - 6.2
August 9, 1999 - Rock - 6.8, Austin - 6.1
August 16, 1999 - Rock - 6.9, Austin - 6.2
September 13, 1999 - Rock - 6.0, Austin - 7.0
September 20, 1999 - Rock - 6.7, Austin - 5.4
September 27, 1999 - Rock - 8.4, Austin - 6.6
October 11, 1999 - Rock - 6.3, Austin - 6.4
October 18, 1999 - Rock - 5.9, Austin - 5.8
October 25, 1999 - Rock - 5.8, Austin - 5.8
November 1, 1999 - Rock - 6.1, Austin 6.0
November 8, 1999 - Rock - 6.1, Austin - 5.4

Rock vs Austin Head to head,
Rock has 16 victories over Austin, Austin has 8 victories, with there being 12 ties.

Rock 16 ratings victories > Austin 8 ratings victories.

16 > 8

The Rock was therefore the bigger draw of 1999.

Since you’re not skilled in debate and rather novice, let me point out what your fallacy here is:

Your claims have therefore been rendered null and void... and therefore refuted.
