During a recent edition of his “The Ross Report” podcast, “Good Ole” Jim Ross commented on who had more impact on WWE – John Cena or Steve Austin. He said,

“That’s a good question. And I guess there’s probably no wrong answer. I think for the shortest period of time, Stone Cold – WWE had never seen anything bigger, hotter, while Steve was healthy. And the numbers, ratings, PPV buys, the live attendance ticket sales, et cetera. Different era, too. But Steve’s career, although abbreviated because of injury, was nothing short of extraordinary.

Then, looking at John Cena. And John Cena was in that great signing class we had that featured Shelton Benjamin, Brock Lesnar, Dave Bautista, Randy Orton. John’s tenure, and his productivity as The Guy for all those years has to mean more than just about anything. John was always reliable. He kept working on his game. He was durable, he was a damn workhorse. So I think because of tenure, and the years, and Father Time staying away from Cena a little bit — of course more than Austin — that Cena would probably get the nod on that deal. But don’t mistake the statement. While Austin was healthy, and while he was on his run, nobody touched him.”
