Bigger than Rock, Cena, HHH, and Hart? Sure.
Bigger than Hogan? No.

Hogan is the biggest star in WWE/F history and it's really not even up for debate.

I'd say it's a close 3 way between Austin, Rock, and Hogan. The first name that comes to mind is Austin, but Hogan eclipses him in some ways. Not only has he stayed on top on 2 different occasions (mid 80's Hulkamania & late 90's nWo), he's been big for virtually his entire career

Hogan is who you think when you say wrestling
unless your a kid then its Cena who is this generation Hogan.
Would it be safe to say that Austin is on the Hulksters Level ?

Austin and Hogan are RIGHT there, but, without adjusting for inflation, it's gotta be Austin.

I'd have to go with Hogan as the biggest ever.

There is absolutely NO way that it's anyone other than Hogan.

Close second to Hogan; but Hogan's part of Americana.

As big as the current day WWE like to say that Austin and the Rock are the 2 Biggest Superstars in WWE History, it is telling that during the Attitude Era, WWE never got on a major broadcast (non-cable) network. NBC didn't even bring back Saturday Night's Main Event until the mid-2000's.
Until Austin or anyone else can top the ratings for The Main Event, then Hogan will always remain WWE's biggest star.

It's Hogan. If I say Stone Cold Steve Austin, it's about 50-50 that my friends will know who I mean, and even then it's vague... "Oh... he was a wrestler or something, right?". If I say Hulk Hogan, EVERYONE knows who I mean, could recognize him if they saw him, know a catchphrase or two, etc.

Exactly. Wrestling during the Monday Night Wars was just a really large niche (which is why it fizzled out so quickly). In Hogan's era, wrestling was mainstream in a way it hadn't been since the 50's. Piccolo, I'd be willing to bet that your friends would remember Koko B Ware than they would Austin.
