This one made me think, Imma Macho Man Stan and dude is really my fav. all time but not being Born in the Mid 80s makes me lean towards Rocky just because I saw his whole career develop right before my eyes.

Nah..you're way off in that assessment. Rock in 99 is better than probably any top guy's run ever. Creatively and all around.
Couldnt be. I loved his 98-99 run it was honestly his best work but it didnt top the apex of Hulkamania or Austin in a beer truck. The only reason he even has a legit shot over Savage is the fact that Vince was (and is once again) unable to push more than one guy at once. The Rock came about in an era in which he HAD TO. But for Savage his sheer longevity as entertainment, puts him over the top for me. If we add in crossover appeal then its definitely the Rock but for wrestling's sake, its like comparing a great song to a great album.

It didn't top Hulk a mania or Austin? Hogan nor Austin had a bigger year than the Rock in 2000. Everything he touched made money..every feud..every appearance. There was nothing like it and nothing has been close since. That's why he is who he is and everyone aspires to reach the spot he's in these days.

No bias, i think people sleep on the fact that the rock did it all in a matter of 7 years.

Triple h has been in the E for like, 18 years? And yet i mean i think most would agree rock has the better career of the two. Its get shakey comparing him to other wrestlers, but how many people can say they're worldwide superstars in multiple forms of media off of 7 year careers except for maybe hogan?

No. Rock was a international icon less than 4 years after his debut. There is nothing like that or close to it in professional wrestling history.
