What street?
If Japan, Inoki, Baba, Rikidozan etc
If Mexico, Santo, Blue Demon, Rey
If England, over 60s will know Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks.
If Burgers, Hogan, Cena, The Rock, Stone Cold, maybe Kurt, Hardys, Jericho, Mysterio depending on their age etc.

Like, non-fans? Only guys who were notable outside of wrestling. Like Benoit murdered people and was a huge news story, and non-fans don't recognise his name.

The average person doesn't know a Jeff Hardy or Rey Mysterio. If they didn't do Hollywood or enter into a major sport they aren't going to know them.

That said, Punk is also a maybe because of his embarrassing WOAT UFC run. Only zoomers know of Orton and that's only through memes.

If people see a dumb kid doing dumb kid shit they are going to leave it alone as that. They aren't going to stop and check on his shirt and ask who they are. If they aren't interested, they won't care. For them, they have better things to keep in their mental roladex.

And then maybe Rey Mysterio, Randy Orton, and Brock Lesnar too.

I was never super into wrestling growing up, but I knew all of those and a few more just from video games and kids at school. Also knew Bret Hart from The Simpsons.

the pipebomb storyline didn't do anything, it wasnt mainstream. it got written about online in a couple of places the day after perhaps, but that is it. it had zero impact on ratings.

It depends how old the person is. 18-25, who knows? The rock, cena, lesnar and undertaker probably. RKO meme was kind of popular for 5 minutes, but half of them wouldn't know Randy by name. 30+, and they would remember when wrestling was actually huge and mainstream, so they would remember Rock, austin, vince, hhh, goldberg, hogan, savage etc.

Anybody with a decent interest in MMA knows Punk because he is a running joke as the worst UFC fighter in history
>>6028487
You don't have to be over 40 to know hogan. Anybody 30+ knows him. He was still active in the late 90s and if you grew up in the 90s you are likely aware of him as a cultural figure
