Why didn't Vince come out? He's the one who made all of these guys stars.

Dwayne was a star from Hollywood, Hogan was a star from AWA, Austin was a star from ECW/WCW. Vince turned them into Blue Chipper and Chilly McFreeze.

He wasn't. He was just there until Austin returned. They had him feud with Billy Gunn at one point. The idea of Rock being considered a top guy and not a fill-in before going to Hollywood is WWE revisionism.

JBL wasn't a thing until after Austin retired, and Guerrero never really feuded with Austin. The Rock was as much a star as Ahmed Johnson until he started getting movie roles and returning part time.

The belt is a prop to get someone over who isn't over, it doesn't mean anything. Even Vince had the belt at one point.

Then why did Hogan and Austin hold it so many times? They didn't need it to get over and the belt is just a ding-dong diddly prop

Doesnt matter. He was the only guy who came close to the drawing power of Austin. Thats why WM 15 and 17 were dimes and thats why Hogan v Rock was dimes.

You give the belt to an established star so he can pass it off to someone like The Rock and help try and get that guy over. Rock was always the guy getting handed the belt to get him over, not the guy getting the belt over so it could be used for the next guy. Then he did Scorpion King.

Rock was a bigger star than austin since mid 1999.
>Drew more than stevetty in 1999 (even meltzer confirms). Main evented WM, RR and Survivor Series.
>Rock was the undisputed top guy. Main evented WM, RR, SS.
>In 2001, sans the 4 months break for Scorpion King shooting, Rock was the guy. Returned and immediately main evented SummerSlam. Main evented all Big4 PPVs.
>Survivor Series - Winner Takes All match was basically all about the hierarchy in the roster, if you look at the order of eliminations. Sole survivor was the top guy.
>In 2002, simpcuck was back to being a midcarder and Rock had Hogan match and the SS main event, along with Undisputed title run to pass the torch to the next guy Brock.
>Was there for just 3 months and was still the guy. Main evented No Way Out, Backlash over world champions HHH and Brock.
Look at Simpcuck stevetty's career
>sidekick to Pillman as hollywood blondes
>sidekick to Bret throughout 1996-97, or i should say JOBBER to Bret

The Rock became a bigger star when he started doing movies. He was a secondary star until then. Austin, Hogan, DDP, Goldberg, Sting, all were bigger than Rock before his movie.

austin never became a bigger star than his predecessors Hogan, Macho, André, Bret, Shawn, Undertaker or those from rival companies like Sting, Flair, Goldberg, DDP, Booker T.
Rock was always superior to austin, and austin was always a secondary star until the Rock left for hollywood and austin returned as a kiddie badge wearing sheriff on RAW.

You're obsessed with Austin. Yes, Austin wasn't Hogan. The Rock wasn't Austin, or Hogan, until he did movies. You can list off guys right and left that were a bigger draw than Dwayne repeating the same catchphrases for a year and a half and coasting until he got hired to use steroids in movies. If HBK had been working in the later 90s and early 00s, Rock would still be called Maivia and you'd be able to see him this weekend at your nearest abandoned national guard armory.

Rock surpassed Austin summer of 99.
>Everything important went through the Rock not Austin.

>Mankind's 1st title
>Jericho's 1st title
>Brock Lesnars 1st title
>The Hogan match
>Goldbergs 1st PPV in WWE
>the creation of Smackdown
It was all The Rock. Not Austin.

Rock
>Top draw of all time. Set unbroken records in 2000
>was a bigger star than austin in his prime
>highest grossing hollywood actor in the world today
>drew the highest buyrate of all WMs at WM28
>despite being a much beloved face, still turned heel. got everyone against him showing how based he is
>never afraid of putting people over. put the fking hurricane over
>despite putting people over and helping build the business, was always in the main event picture.

Stevetty
>jobber in WCW
>spent four years as a midcarder in WWE
>drew big in 1998. only really because Hogan, nWo, McMahon, Russo and Tyson created the right situation for him
>injury prone
>outdrawn by the Rock
>terrified of losing his spot. didn't do business with Lesnar
>unlike Rock who was a GOAT heel or Hogan who changed the business with his heel turn, Stevetty's heel turn killed the attitude era
>sent back to the midcard to feud with the likes of Big Show and Scott Hall
>got worked so hard by Hogan and his new status as a midcarder that he took his ball and went home like a crybaby
>not recognizable at all today. has to leech off WWE and do podcasts to get paid. Even Cena is more well known.
