Guest Midnight Express83 Report post Posted September 3, 2002 I give Bret the nod only because if it wasn't for him, Austin wouldn't have had a chance to be King of the Ring, thus no Austin 3:16, thus No Stone Cold Steve Austin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest goodhelmet Report post Posted September 6, 2002 i like bret's ringwork more but i think austin's win was so much more! bret's win resulted in a feud w/ jerry lawler. austin's resulted in the rebirth of wrestling popularity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually that's not true since KOTR was around long before it was on ppv and they still would have had it the following years regardless of Bret's win or not. Bret was already a former WWF champ by the time he won the first ppv KOTR so Austin's had more of a career impact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
