Without a single doubt. I knew people who hated pro wrestling but they knew exactly who The Rock and Stone Cold were. I grew upduring the Golden era but when WCW came with the NWO angle then out of that WWE came back with an edgier product thanks to that and ECW. Pro wrestling went through the roof. The late 90's early 2000's were amazing for fans.
I may not have grown up in the Attitude era but this rivalry is one of the greatest rivalries in history because both men changed the entire landscape of wrestling 🐐🐐❤️❤️🔥🔥
If you didn't grow up in that Era, then you TRULY just don't know how huge it really was. It was a very different time bc the attitude Era was like night and day compared to the 80s which was a huge time for wwf in its own right. But ur right these 2 men changed the business.
@sandiletwala3001 been there, done that, still doing it. 😂 Just like whenever I yawn and stretch, I look like a combination of HHH when spitting the water, and Roman Reigns pre-spear. Wrestling pulses through my veins...
The Rock debuted the night Austin had his first big match. The Rock was the last eliminated in Royal Rumble 98, Austin and Rock had one match the week before Wrestlemania 14 just the little things shows how much their careers paralleled to each other they really believed a lot in the Rock even when the people didn't see it. Great documentary 👍👍
This wasn't just a rivalry it was thee rivalry. The heights these guys took pro wrestling to were insane. And on a personal level Taker Vrs HBK is next in line after these two.
I was born 1990 Dam i cried at the end snd is still crying watching this cause deep down the fact is i will never get go see or experience anything like these two again! Love rock Love Austin Thanks for giving all you guys had and more!
It was a blessing to grow up in the Attitude Era. Other than Pokemon, it was the biggest thing in pop culture. Every time you went out in public, you would see every young boy to young adult men wearing WWF/WCW shirts. It was all that was ever talked about in school and all the countless suspensions kids got for doing the "Suck It" crotch chop. Also the backyard wrestling we all did with friends. Oh man what a time to be alive!
What's that old saying...oh right, U JUST HAD TO BE THERE...even it's watched later on in life, witnessing it all was very iconic! Both My GOATS..1A & 1B
You are not wrong. I’ve watched a lot of it over with my son and it’s just not the same as when I watched it live Monday and Thursday nights. Anxiously waiting week to week to see what happens next. 😁😁😁 just the excitement alone was enough to drives us crazy back then. ❤❤❤ WWF MONDAY NIGHT RAW/THURSDAY NIGHT SMACKDOWN.
With absolutely NOOO Disrespect intended toward Austin or Taker or anyone else he faced, but it Seems like All the best Rivalries from this Best Era Ever of Attitude or any other, the Rock is Always the common denominator! Seems like he can bring out the best in anyone! Granted HHH and Austin brought out something even bigger In the Rock at the same time, but any rivalry Rock had, whether it be Stone Cold, HHH, McFoley, Hogan, Undertaker, or even a he corporation…it was 24 Karat Gold out there Ever Freakin’ Time!
Then he went boring and stale by 2001 with the same act for the past 5 years so switched to heel and flopped badly. While the rock kept on getting bigger and bigger
Austin was number 1 in my book but the rock was great too. Don’t think you can go wrong with either or. We were lucky to get both of them at the top of there game 🔥
One of the grestest rivalries of sports and entertainment, maybe just Ronaldo vs Messi overcomes this. The last rivalry was Triple H vs Rock, i think you have complete the trilogy of the big 3 of Attitude era for the next rivalry 👀
You could Just LITERALLY FEEL the Electricity and Excitement in your bone marrow leap of the screens and Cover your body with goosebumps Just from these two legends doing nothing more than just STARING at each other in the middle of the Ring! I was more of a Rock fan at the time but even “I” was Always a little Disappointed if i didnt get to see The Rock take a stunner and bounce off the ropes as “Only HE CAN!” lol.
in top 5 goat wrestler ever,Austin is number 1 Anti/face/heel/real final boss of wrestling history ever,number 2 goat taker ever,number 3 goat ever Rock,number 4 goat ever brock,number 5 goat ever hhh
Crazy reliving this can bring tears to your eyes. I was barely an adult when this was happening. 18 to 19 and now I’m 43. The memories are bitter sweet.
This rivalry transcended the WWE itself, as a teenager it was the single reason I watched faithfully!!! I can't tell you how many times I was suspended from school for randomly stunning kids in the hallways, my God those were the days I tell you
You didn't passed the 🔦 to The Rock, (Stone Cold Steve Austin) you started in 1996 and finished eccept a match you in 2003 and him in 2004 eccept 7 matches even if he was already part timer
@@KINGMONKEY1989 he basically saying stone cold always beat the rock, and it was only when stone cold was close to retiring he finally let the rock win 1
Hogan vs Andre HBK vs Bret Cena vs Edge Taker vs Brock Flair vs Sting Flair vs Dusty Hogan vs Savage HHH vs Rock Taker vs Austin Goldberg vs Steiner Cena vs RKO RKO vs HHH Bastia vs Taker Sting vs Hogan Punk vs Cena... Great Great Rivals
The greatest rivalry ever!!! Both crowd movers.... The company "Bad Ass" vs The Versace Loud Mouth😂😂 Nobody was too raw for tv than Stone Cold and nobody was more perfect for tv than The Rock.
Im SOOOOOOOO happy to come up during this Era 😭. The Rock OMG, dude was an entertainer. Stone Cold was STONE COLD 🤣, real life. High School was lit after watching a show 🤣 Side note: I remember The Rock knocking Stone Cold off that bridge 😭😭😭😭
SCSA vs Rock is the greatest in-ring rivalry... But SCSA vs Vince is the greatest rivalry in sports entertainment... The way Vince always uses others to mess with Austin (Rock, Taker, HHH, Kane, Mankind, etc)
In sport and wrestling was Rock vs. Austin 100%. I think in other dimensión and another form its Mr. M vs. Austin!!!! Maybe it was the fusion of all that
Used to love the Rock as a kid. As a man. Having watched Austin in WCW. Knowing he road the roads at the end of the territory system. Found himself in ECW. Came up with no lineage. He became THE biggest star in the history of the business. Dwayne is on the board. Got high on his own shit. Rags on about how he had 7 bucks and had people carry bottles of his piss. Nah. Dwayne ruined the rock. Like Terry ruined hulk. But Steve was always Steve. The best.
Really wm 19 was the swan song for the rock as well, he lasted for a few more months and left for good. Now i think he has gotten roid maddness. "no lose clause"
They will hate me for this but I have to say that I was never starstruck with Stone Cold. He was kinda okay, but I always liked The Rock vs HHH and The Rock vs Kurt Angle more.
Is this the greatest rivalry in the history of wrestling?
Definitely no questions asked. This rivalry changed the entire landscape of wrestling
Of course
Hell yeah 🔥🔥🔥
Without a single doubt. I knew people who hated pro wrestling but they knew exactly who The Rock and Stone Cold were.

No doubt about it 💯
I am watching from Kenya, the attitude era was my era, and I loved it so much. So many memories cascade in me when I watch these mini-docs.
I may not have grown up in the Attitude era but this rivalry is one of the greatest rivalries in history because both men changed the entire landscape of wrestling 🐐🐐❤️❤️🔥🔥

I was in high school stunning people in the hallways. The Attitude Era just hit different.
@@tlmorris513 I spit water all the time as if I was HHH
@@OutsiderLXIX I grew up in the Mid Ruthless Agression era and PG era but I do know that the Attitude era is what made wrestling famous
@sandiletwala3001 been there, done that, still doing it. 😂

This rivalry defined the entire era.
Greatest rivalry ever. Attitude era was something else.
Rock and stone cold always two Goats in 90s time❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Right when wwe was awesome
Now this is what i called rivalry
I love this rivalry
The Rock debuted the night Austin had his first big match. The Rock was the last eliminated in Royal Rumble 98, Austin and Rock had one match the week before Wrestlemania 14 just the little things shows how much their careers paralleled to each other they really believed a lot in the Rock even when the people didn't see it.

What an Era to live through, I'm so happy I grew up in the 90s, 2 of the GOATS
This wasn't just a rivalry it was thee rivalry. The heights these guys took pro wrestling to were insane. And on a personal level Taker Vrs HBK is next in line after these two.
This rivalry almost destroyed childhood friends growing up. 3:16
the ive been waiting for!
I was born 1990
Dam i cried at the end snd is still crying watching this cause deep down the fact is i will never get go see or experience anything like these two again!

Idk man. Austin vs McMahon is the biggest rivalry ever followed by Austin vs Rock then Rock vs HHH
Attitude Era started with Steve austin
@@Sam-rl5hstrue that
@Sam-rl5hs attitude started with Shawn Michaels. Austin Blew it up to new heights.
Stone cold vs the rock History in the making
Someday when someone tells me that I got earn it
I say I’m destined for it it’s not a want it’s what I’m destined for
That's why i have always been a fun of the attitude era
The attitude era was incredible
Ish don’t make no sense
Took me years to realise the biggest rivalries were a rock and a stone. And their careers were cemented 😏
Indeed. No concrete evidence needed to prove this
Wow!!!
😂
Wasn't that *hard* to figure out with the *mountain* of evidence
One the best rivalries as I was growing up this would never beat any rivalries from this generation never the attitude era was the best
This is the greatest rivalry in Pro Wrestling history.
Stone cold:"He was trying to get to the top , i was the top"🔥🔥🔥
And then the rock became the top while bro walked out and beat on his wife
Then he went boring and stale by 2001 with the same act for the past 5 years so switched to heel and flopped badly. While the rock kept on getting bigger and bigger
Two of the greatest stars in the greatest era of wrestling. Imo there are 3 goats. Hogan, austin and rock
Austin was number 1 in my book but the rock was great too. Don’t think you can go wrong with either or. We were lucky to get both of them at the top of there game 🔥
The epic contrast of polar opposites of Hardcore vs Cool shit talking. Lightning in a bottle.
One of the grestest rivalries of sports and entertainment, maybe just Ronaldo vs Messi overcomes this.
The last rivalry was Triple H vs Rock, i think you have complete the trilogy of the big 3 of Attitude era for the next rivalry 👀
Ronaldo vs Messi doesn’t even hold a candle to Stone Cold and the Rock. The only comparison is maybe Jordan and the bulls. Maybe. 🤔
@@johnhines623😂😂😂 in al world wwshit now that is fake faight , Real versus TSKA or Olimpiakos or Panatinaikos is more biger than fake resling
Real life bff stone cold and the rock
❤❤❤❤❤
There Will Be only two biggest baby face rivalry ever in wrestling history ever,this top number 1 two baby faces rivalry ever in wrestling history

Hbk???? Hbk over HHH
Crazy reliving this can bring tears to your eyes. I was barely an adult when this was happening. 18 to 19 and now I’m 43. The memories are bitter sweet.
I think they could’ve gotten even more out of it if they made it less lopsided. The rock won maybe 1 match between them
Austin blew up a year and a half before Rock did. So the draw has to go over most of the time.
Stone cold always worried about his spot more than The Rock... that's why Rock won so few times.
2 if you count Survivor Series 2001
Austin was nothing but a selfish punk. He never wanted to put anyone over.
The fans would of rejected it pal. The rock was huge Austin was in another stratosphere
This rivalry transcended the WWE itself, as a teenager it was the single reason I watched faithfully!!! I can't tell you how many times I was suspended from school for randomly stunning kids in the hallways, my God those were the days I tell you
How I wish I could go back to 1995
95? This was 2001. 95 was literally 1 of the worst years in Pro Wrestling, as far as WWE is concerned.
@@waxmandrI think he’s talking about the time he first started watching WWE😅 or the year he was born😅
Every Monday and Thursday was the best nights of television watching these two. The best era ever.
The greatest rivalry in the WWF(E)! They were literally the Batman & Superman of the wrestling business!
imagine how much bigger this rivalry wouldve been if austin didnt hurt himself getting ran over and had to take a year off.
It would've got boring fast. Austin taking a year off was the best thing to happen for the rock. He reached unmatched levels
Highlights full of the rock getting cooked and 1 W😢
Why would Austin have Rocky’s beeper number
Cause he’s the rattle snake 😂
What!!!!
About you go get a decent haircut
You didn't passed the 🔦 to The Rock, (Stone Cold Steve Austin) you started in 1996 and finished eccept a match you in 2003 and him in 2004 eccept 7 matches even if he was already part timer
WHAT ? WHAT ? WHAT ? WHAT ? 😂
@@KINGMONKEY1989 he basically saying stone cold always beat the rock, and it was only when stone cold was close to retiring he finally let the rock win 1
@theonlygoodonehere2259 thank you for translating that language
@@dannylevine6620 yup no problem
Im so glad i was there for this. The Rock was was a great character stone cold was just it though
The greatest superstars ever
The greatest rivalry ever
Period
John Cena and randy Orton it was rock and stonecold
It still blows my mind how you can have a guy like Stone Cold Steve Austin and a guy like the Rock at the same time, at the literal peak of wrestling.
Good video. The editing could use a little work but overall good stuff.
Because of Austin heel turn @ WM 17 , WWE never gave permission to Cena to turn heel.
Their fault is that they were born and raised in the same era, popularly known as the attitude Era ❤❤ to both of them
The start of being a teenager the year 1998 changed my life thank you Stone Cold
Hogan vs Andre
HBK vs Bret
Cena vs Edge
Taker vs Brock
Flair vs Sting
Flair vs Dusty
Hogan vs Savage
HHH vs Rock
Taker vs Austin
Goldberg vs Steiner
Cena vs RKO
RKO vs HHH
Bastia vs Taker
Sting vs Hogan
Punk vs Cena...
Great Great Rivals
Wrestle mania 17 changed everything
We need a more detailed documentary. I want to know exactly how they both got to the top. Specific moments
The greatest era in wrestling
Greatest rivalry of all time
From about 8 to 12 yo I loved this. Grew out of it though in high school got a bit too old to watch play pretend
Either one of these guys could be called the Goat and I would not have a problem with it.
The Rock vs Stone Cold Steve Austin, definitely the peak of wrestling.
Please take me back to the attitude era in my childhood life
90s era best of the best
Rock's NOD was his first ever "Bloodline" stable
i feel like them along with mankind and triple h all together probably had the best heat in the biz. impeccable
SCSA was always my number 1 and The Rock was my number 2.
The greatest rivalry ever!!! Both crowd movers.... The company "Bad Ass" vs The Versace Loud Mouth😂😂 Nobody was too raw for tv than Stone Cold and nobody was more perfect for tv than The Rock.
Im SOOOOOOOO happy to come up during this Era 😭. The Rock OMG, dude was an entertainer. Stone Cold was STONE COLD 🤣, real life.
High School was lit after watching a show 🤣
Side note: I remember The Rock knocking Stone Cold off that bridge 😭😭😭😭
Greatest rivalry In the history of wwe
Stone Cold will always be the Goat and he single handedly saved the wwf . Rock can have #2
Can you do a stone cold vs triple h next because that rival tend to gets over look as well
I am not challenging but calling everyone out both women and men who try to take my place.
I am BETTER than the BEST.
🔥 The MAN, Sharon Shaw ( China).
Best Rivalry I'm a Rock Fan
Goosebumps
Subbed
HBK vs Hitman was great as well
WWE 2K25 NEEDS TO HAVE THE ROCK SHOWCASE
SCSA vs Rock is the greatest in-ring rivalry...
But SCSA vs Vince is the greatest rivalry in sports entertainment... The way Vince always uses others to mess with Austin (Rock, Taker, HHH, Kane, Mankind, etc)
I remember stone cold and undertaker as a rivalry and rock vs hhh more than rock vs stone cold
Stone cold is my favorite wrestler of all time bar none
So basically Stone Cold still is that Guy!!
“He was everything u wanna pass the torch to” nd then he left us a year later
this really downplayed how quick rock took over
Jews and Muslims haven't even had a rivalry as big as Stone Cold versus The Rock 👍👍
Both of these guys spoke in third person.
In sport and wrestling was Rock vs. Austin 100%. I think in other dimensión and another form its Mr. M vs. Austin!!!! Maybe it was the fusion of all that
This was Charizard vs Blastoise
Used to love the Rock as a kid.
As a man. Having watched Austin in WCW. Knowing he road the roads at the end of the territory system. Found himself in ECW. Came up with no lineage. He became THE biggest star in the history of the business. Dwayne is on the board. Got high on his own shit. Rags on about how he had 7 bucks and had people carry bottles of his piss. Nah.

Love em both. Stone cold is #1 tho
Hmm… just like Superman or Wonder Woman would like to be the antihero

Really wm 19 was the swan song for the rock as well, he lasted for a few more months and left for good. Now i think he has gotten roid maddness. "no lose clause"
The title is wrong it was WWF back than
One thing I dnt like bout this video is I see one rock bottom or ppl elbow on stone cold
Stone cold
Stone cold never beat THE ROCK it with help of somebody....
They will hate me for this but I have to say that I was never starstruck with Stone Cold. He was kinda okay, but I always liked The Rock vs HHH and The Rock vs Kurt Angle more.
WWE was best in 90s no 1 entertainment show off all time 😢 childhood memories 😢
