Owen broke Austin neck summerslam 97... he beat hbk for world title in March 97 I know my wrestling history
I was wrong I was off by a year I will see myself out tha door
with all due respect *stone cold WM17 promo voice* -
I gotta say that Austin feuding with Vince made him into a wrestling superstar. As great as the feud with Bret was Austin was still upper midcard after that. Once he started hitting Vince with stunners and disrespecting him is when his career took off and that was before his feud with Shawn Michaels.
-
I'd say the start or his take off was king of the ring, from there it was an organic superstar build, maybe the Vince factor added to him being the face of a huge boom, but even with out Vince he still would have been at least one of the top guys

NPR did a piece on Jinder Mahal, his anti-American character and the history of those kinds of gimmicks.

Rusev must be disgusted with Jinder

Yeah from KotR to the Bret feud is when he started to surge. He was one of those heels that the fans started to love even before the double turn. Pretty sure hin being so over is why Vince started doing the program with him, not the other way around.Peezy_Jenkins wrote: »I'd say the start or his take off was king of the ring, from there it was an organic superstar build, maybe the Vince factor added to him being the face of a huge boom, but even with out Vince he still would have been at least one of the top guys -

Austin stated that the WWE is booking him like "just another Joe Blow". He further expanded on that thought below (H/T WrestlingInc):
"You bring him over and he's going 30-minute broadways with half the damn roster. Debuted down there in WrestleMania 32, NXT, with Sami Zayn, hell of a match. Hell of a match! A lot of credit to Sami Zayn and Shinsuke, but here's 'The King Of Strong Style' and all-of-a-sudden, he comes in and he's working Dolph [Ziggler] and it took him a long time to finish off Dolph for 'The King Of Strong Style'. Do you understand where I'm going with this gimmick? That's booking though. What is the plan? You've got this guy who's one of those talents that just don't come around every single day. He's special. He comes in and you treat him like he's another Joe Blow."
And this comin from tha man who quit wwe because he did not want ta job ta brock lesnar
It was more to it than that.
If tha rock could do tha job so should've austin
That's not fair, Rocky is literally THE most unselfish top guy in wwe's history. He didn't give a ? who he jobbed to -

That's my whole point... the rock was just as big of a star as Austin was but he would give back from time ta time wit a job ta put ova talent... -
Rock was a cocky heel that got caught slipping n hurricane took advantage. That's all that was. Stone cold losing to Brock with no buildup is not nearly the same thing

The Rock did the job to help get somebody over, Austin should have did the same. -
Under proper circumstances I'm sure he would have
But we can pretend hurricane made it to new heights after beatin rock
We can also pretend it makes sense to beat the biggest star since Hogan like he's just anybody for a kotr first round match when the matchup could have brought in 750k ppv buys AT LEAST
-
As much as we ? on Hogan for not putting enough people over he did the Job against Brock on an episode of Smackdown. Austin should have did what was best considering his career was winding down. Undertaker was losing to ? Maven for 2-3 weeks in a row.
-
Yall keep bringing completely different situations as reasoning y he should have and ignoring the root of y he didn't. 55 year old Hogan jobbin to an already made guy. Really? How bout let's all end this debate n agree to disagree
-
So Brock was an already made guy, then Austin shouldn't have had a problem with it then since Brock beat Hogan a few weeks after Austin took his ball and went home.
-
Makes sense.
