Bigger draw

By Scott Keith on 23 August 2018


I’m arguing with someone on FB, bigger draws: Austin or Rock. I say Austin. Of course Rock’s comeback made bank but In their prime, who was it?

Same question Hogan vs Flair, Hogan made tons more right?

Austin v. Rock is tough because they drew the biggest buyrate in WWF history against each other, so you kind of have to credit both. Rock did top that against Cena, twice, so he's got a legit claim there. Overall, though, Austin sold more merchandise and was a much bigger factor on ratings, so I'd give the win to Austin.
Hogan is absolutely a bigger draw than Flair, and it's not even an argument.
