Why Stone Cold could never be greater than the rock

[Bob Loblaw]

Austin got injured and missed plenty of time at his peak. He was too face but Don't you tell me he was shoved down our throats. Cena was. hHH was and hogan was but don't lump him in with them to prop up rock. Rocks great on his own, one of the goats

 

[TL15]

Austin was the dude who appealed to the "everyday" blue collar wrestling fan. There was never a wrestler who embodied the every man like SCSA

He was in good shape but wasn't overly jacked
He wasn't the tallest...lots of wrestlers taller than him
He was blue collar (and that's what the traditional wrestling fan is/was)
He cussed, drank beer, gave his boss the finger, etc.

The Rock, on the other hand, was a charismatic star...but he fit the mold of a wrestling/TV star more than SCSA...
The Rock was more "TV"/untouchable/"fictional" than SCSA
He was larger than life...versace wearing...celebrity...and that is needed in wrestling too. The "star" quality

Both were fantastic. We should really just let them live on Mount Rushmore and stop trying to compare them.

Rock need to return the favor and let SCSA cook as a bad guy in the Fast&Furious series.

I think they have enough bald characters as it is, in the franchise.

 

[Mack de la Rocha]

Being that deep in the red & making bad threads = wearing kickpads & doing super kicks and thigh slapping

shyt is the way it is

 

[THE 101]

Stone Cold could never do the numbers rock did even though he was shoved down our throats for years

Well yeah other than the fact he drew more money than Rocky

 

[Tide Run This]

Stunning Steve >>>>> Bluechipper Rocky and Flex Kavana

 

[boriquaking]

the stone cold gimmick was too down to earth to ever outshine rocky. im not saying austin has no starpower. hes on the same level as rocky.

but its essentially like dusty and flair.

 

[Black White Sox Hat]

At the time they wrestled together.. Stone Cold-Jordan Rock-Pippen

 

[(Lean Ambrose)]

Its crazy to even put them against each other like that...

 

[Black White Sox Hat]

So it's '97 and you have to remove either The Rock or Stone Cold from the roster who are you chosing?

You think the WWF could survive the war with WCW minus Stone Cold at that time?

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

That bald headed CAC never had the charisma good looks of the great one

Stone Cold could never do the numbers rock did even though he was shoved down our throats for years

Facts

The rock in his prime was better than Austin.

Matter of fact he eclipsed him as a draw.

The rock was more versatile than Austin ever was from a character standpoint.

If the Rock had stayed in the wwe for another five years this wouldn't even be up for discussion.
