100% there would have been Austin/Rock/Foley/Taker vs Hogan/Flair PPV title matches in the Attitude Era if they were in the company and it's ridiculous to think otherwise. Hogan, Flair, and Savage all three almost went back to Vince in 1998-2000. You think Vince would have had them in mid card feuds? Lmao. One thing Vince has ALWAYS loved since day one of taking over from his dad was bringing back former top guys to try to pop ticket sales or buy rates. He's still doing it multiple times a year in 2021. You think the guy who put the belt on Goldberg in 2016 and 2020 wouldn't have had Austin vs Hogan and Austin vs Flair headlining PPVs in 1998 and 1999? Lmao.
You sound silly cause this would make sense if Vince didn’t let them both walk several years earlier cause he thought they were washed. :dead:

There are literally chats and interviews from the time period where Vince says he would run Hogan/Flair in the main events with Austin if their contracts were up and they could come to a deal. And all 3 were in discussions at various times to come back to Vince during the Attitude Era in between contract stuff with WCW. And then when Flair and Hogan did come back, Vince personally worked feuds with them, Flair had a feud with Austin, Hogan had a WM match with Rock and would have had one with Austin if they could have agreed to terms. Flair and Hogan were still huge draws in 1998-1999. fukking of course Vince would have used them in the main events.

Superbrawl 1999 with Hogan vs Flair had more buys than Starrcade 1998 with Goldberg vs Nash, Halloween Havoc 1998 with Goldberg vs DDP. Austin vs Hogan/Flair in 1998/1999 would have been huge.

Gonna go through a handful of Raws in a row, starting with November 27th 1995. Mostly starting right there cause I want to see the early beginnings of Austin, Rock, HHH, Goldust, Mankind, Ahmed, etc.

Hopefully god gives you the strength to get through Shawn's babyface title reign. shyt might be some of the most boring TV ever produced.

Lmaooo same. It starts off with the replay of when he “fell unconscious in the ring” vs Owen Hart :lolbron: and he’s shown taking a Sid Powerbomb, Razor’s Edge, and Yokozuna leg drop before that :laff:

When Scott Steiner turned heel his original name was "White Thunder" they had to retcon that shyt because they didn't want to look racist or look like they were supporting white supremacy


They look white to me.
I always thought they looked more like ethnic Jewish than anything else.

Definitely not just straight up white boy white.
