Remember when Austin walked out the night after WrestleMania 18 because he didn't like his place on the card?

Remember when Austin skipped the brand split draft in 2002 because he wasn't going to be the first pick?

Remember when he no showed a bunch of Raws in Fall 01 because he had to put kurt angle over for 9/11 reasons and he didn't want to?

Remember when he walked out again because he was seething over lesnar and vince was trying to move on from Austins old ass?

Remember when he didn't want to put The Rock over at WrestleMania 2000 so he got his neck surgery faster than he was supposed to?

Remember when Austin came back in 2003 and got embarrassed by Triple H for being a pretend sheriff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuNAYdcgRcc&t=41s

Still the biggest draw in wrestling history. Meanwhile Hunter got owned by his father in law and almost died, preventing him from ever wrestling again. Also zero male heirs despite how many attempts? Lol

Simpcuck steve was never the first choice for this match
>In Oct 2001, Vince and Rock had a discussion about Hogan coming back
>The first and foremost plan was to have Rock vs Hogan as the WM marquee match
>This is documented in Rock's Just Bring It DVD from 2002
>Before Hogan's return news, the plan was to have Rock vs austin in Undisputed title unification match at WM
>They decided to wrap up the Invasion angle at Survivor Series, and feed austin to Rock there instead of WMX8 for title vs title Winner Takes All
>Both Rock and Vince thought that going over Hogan at WM would be a bigger deal than going over austin
>Triple H was also preparing for his triumphant return at RR to headline WM
>Vince, therefore, decided to have Rock vs Hogan as WM main event with austin jobbing to Haitch
>Haitch had already buried austin twice on PPV previously, so austin veto'd the plan to job thrice
>Vince offered austin Nash instead, but plans changed and ultimately austin was booked to job to Scott Hall
>Hall showed up drunk on the eve of WMX8, so austin bitched and whined and got the finish changed

2005 - RAW homecoming in Oct
>Hogan challenged austin for a WM match
>This was the first time Hogan vs austin was ever planned

Austin knew the crowds would turn him and he was in full self mark mode those days. He killed the business with him wanting his mark cake and eating it too with the 01 heel run but wouldn't give back to the business with the Hulkster.

Hogan is the biggest draw in wrestling history. The 80s boom was bigger than the Attitude era, and then Hogan got another run at the top in 96/97.

This. People blast HBK, Hogan, Punk, and Bret but Austin gets a pass for it. People will actually use it as just cause to undermine and discredit them but overlook it for Austin. I've always found it odd.

I at least am consistent. I don't care that any of them did it.

But I'd like to see others acknowledge Austin's a diva.

Part of the reason I'm nervous to see an Austin/Punk match is because Austin would wanna go over.

Steve was never offered the match. He says he was to save face but Rock already surpassed him at that point. That's the real reason why the wife beater was upset.

Hogan made wrestling mainstream, ask anyone 30+ and they'll say Hogan when you say wrestling.
Hogan was drawing with NWO even with Austin at his prime. Austin also tanked ratings because he sucked as heel. Sure Austin saved WWF in the Monday Night Wars but Hogan is the true all time goat
