Yeah yeah..you know what you can do with your bandwagon.
You're right, the magnitude of the match was because of Hogan and his legacy. He's been in the business for so many years, and was such a huge star the whole time that there's no one around that even comes close. He was the biggest face of all time, no question.
Now, if the Rock stays in the business as long as Hogan, I think he'll have a greater legacy.
Oh, and I disagree. I don't think Hogan vs. anyone else would've worked. I can't think of another wrestler in that match that would've made me spend the $40 for the PPV. It was all about Rock/Hogan for me.
I hear you, my man.
I agree... Rock and Hogan is what made it so spectacular. I would have watched it no matter who Hogan was wrestling. I was just saying that Rock vs. Austin wouldn't have drawn the same as a Hogan vs. Austin match is all.
Rock and Hogan put on a better, more exciting match than any two other stars alive could have pulled.
That was the greatest match of all time.
I recorded it, and have watched it at least 6 times.
I can't get over it.
I was like a kid again... filled with anticipation and excitement.
I was happy with the ending, and sad at the same time. I hate to see Hogan get beat, but he didn't really get beat. He just did what was necessary.
It was like watching the young martial arts guy finally be able to take down his master.
You had the young, strong, energetic Rock, take down the aged, strong veteran Hogan. The two walking back up the ramp together was a site to see.
And was it just me, or was the Rock almost teary-eyed at the end in front of the Titantron, when Hogan raised his hand again, and said that Rock was the best?
