chaosrage 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2003 And don't you think that Mike Tyson and Austin had a lot to do with the WM 14 buyrate? Just like Bret Hart leaving, Diesel leaving, Scott Hall leaving, and Nitro starting to pick up might've had something to do with 1996 buyrates. See this is why you have to look at more than just who main evented a show. If that's all you go by, then you have to admit Bret is the worst draw ever since Bret/Bulldog did worse than HBK/bulldog. Hell, HBK/Undertaker did better than Austin/Undertaker. And HBK/Diesel in shitty 1996 did better than Austin/Foley from Over the Edge 1998. I stand by my original point. Being a talented wrestler does NOT mean that you're also a good draw. Good wrestlers CAN be good draws, but it's not a guarantee. I agree, but I think HBK is a draw just due to the fact that he didn't sink the WWF in 1996. He was all by himself, and ratings/buyrates didn't drop any from 1995. Besides, look at how ratings jumped in late 97 when he was at the top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Metal Maniac 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2003 See, I do fully realize that there's a hell of a lot more involved then the main event in terms of how well a show does - but I mean, I'm not gonna go around defending the other guy's side, now am I?

Guest JumpinJackFlash Report post Posted December 12, 2003 QUOTE (Hogan Made Wrestling @ Dec 12 2003, 03:18 AM) If they want to get all these guys on but don't want them dominating the show, how about Evolution vs. The Rock, Mick Foley, Shawn Michaels, and Ricky Steamboat? So Randy Orton can pin Steamboat? No! No! No! No! No! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
