Does that list give Austin a 7 for impact and give Hart and Savage a 10? That's ridiculous. Austin took pro wrestling to new heights. Made it more money than it had ever made in the past. Broke cable television rating records and destroyed PPV buys. His T-shirts outsold everyone by miles and he filled more 60,000+ stadiums than anyone else in North America. This guy is at least as important to the WWF as Hogan was. Vince was nearing bankruptcy when Austin came in and started creating a buzz. Vince saw this and put all his eggs in one basket; Austin, and it paid off big time. The cool badass baby face was nothing new. Austin didn't ruin it for the rest. WWE creative ruined it with bad storylines and shoving HHH down our throats for 3 years. Austin could put on wars in the ring with various types of opponents. He could cut promos as good as anyone else, and he changed wrestling forever. He definately gets 10s all around. And I was never even that big a fan. But facts are facts.

My thoughts exactly
