There’s no justification for Rock having to sit in midcard hell for a year after WM15. Ratings prove he was the biggest draw

Austin losing to Rock at Summerslam & fucking off for neck surgery, would have made him 100% by Judgement Day. Meaning he only misses Rumble, No Way Out & Backlash.

>Rock
Nope these clearly indicate Chris Jericho was the biggest draw during this 3-month period.

Jericho should've cleanly beaten Rock at Summerslam and then win the title in the six pack match at Unforgiven. Dude was white hot when he debuted and they did fuck all with him.

By January the Radicalz debuted, so if Jericho kept the belt & remained heel by then, you could have paired him up with that group & you’d have a instant white-hot storyline of WCW invaders leading into Wrestlemania. Rock would beat Jericho, HHH could face Benoit, Eddie could face Angle & The Outlaws could face Saturn/Malenko. Then after you split them up, Jericho turns face & Triple H slides into the role as top heel.

Sounds so much better than what we got irl. The roster from Survivor Series - late January was so thin. The only real main eventers were just HHH, Rock, Foley, and Big Show. It was so thin you had the fucking Big Bossman challenging for the world title on ppv and Vince McMahon competing in the main event.

He had the highest gain in August, October & was 2nd in September behind two Rock promos. Fucking horseshit that neither of them were champion, while a anti draw like cunter held it for the next year & headlined every ppv

Without Bret, Austin & Rock would have never made it out of the midcard. You can thank him for that.

Exactly. Everybody tuned in because they were psychic and knew Chris Jericho was going to interrrupt. Quarter hour rating gains are so stupid and meaningless unless it was something advertised ahead of time. Theyre more a reflection of the previous segment or whatever the hell was going on on the other channel

The Numbers are reflected by merch sales, this was october 1999, a month later it was the same top 6, all Austin/Rock merch with the Y2J t-shirt.

This is 100% true but he needed another finisher though. The Judas Effect is what he should have used.

This legit could have convinced Sting to join during the invasion or in 2002. If he saw WCW stars leaving to WWE & getting pushed right away, he wouldn’t be wary of getting buried.

This would have been amazing simply by the sheer fact of having no mcmahon family drama involved at all. Benoit was the world champion when he joined anyway, so it would have been a huge angle
