But the main thing I disagree with is the attitude era comment. c'mon even if you read back on it you'd disagree. It was all Austin. What you're doing there is not only blaming austin for having a better supporting cast, but also blaming Austin for being more beat up then Hogan is.
Like i said giving credit to Piper and dibiase is fair. even Slaughters baby work for the companies B circut during the early and mid 80s. But out side of that...it was one guy. (and just so we're clear...i deeply hate hogan but credit where its due and such.)

The majority of truimphs in ratings for the fed over WCW were in segments that had DX and mic foley. And i still contend austin was only a mega star in the buisness when fueding with Vince. and out side of that he was "just" the most over guy in the buisness...not a pop culture icon ala hogan.
