The Rocks style was fantastic for crowd control and fun factor. Austin's style was downright vicious...He'd just emasculate you verbally and could sell you on the ass whopping that was going to come to you.

And oh yeah..Austin has already said over and over again that the Rock is the best promo man of all time. So the thread is moot.

Well that's not gonna fly because he's repeatedly said Michaels is the GOAT and I don't envision you accepting his opinion on that.

Well..Austin can think what he wants on Michaels and Rock. It depends. Does his word mean that much to you that you can't make a decision on your own? Michaels better than Savage, Misawa, and Kawada? It's just common sense really.

No...hence my post saying it doesn't fly, I disagree with him on both counts. I don't think bringing his opinion into is a valid argument. You made plenty of valid points of your own without having to use what Austin said to back it up.

Sure but it's just another take on the situation. All of this isn't possible without the success of Rock and Austin no matter how it's sliced or diced.

The answer is The Rock


Plus toothfairy was cornball status by 2002 while Austin never lost his stuff.

We revising history and acting like that "WHAT?!"-era stuff wasn't horrible breh?

C'mon. I recall even Austin saying he regretted doing that shyt, and wasn't it right before he left due to being displeased with creative direction?

I love Austin, but personally I find Hollywood Rock ALONE to be more entertaining than anything he's done on the mic.
