Hogan has really bad back issues cause of dropping the leg. So why is it that Stone Cold Steve Austin doesn't have back issues from the stunner?

My guess, Hogan's been dropping the leg far longer than Austin's been using the stunner, not to mention Austin has had longer stretches of inactive time than Hogan.
Not to mention very few moves Austin did in the ring as the major star relied on him lifting the person up, whereas Hogan had to bodyslam a 200 ton Godzillaesque man... <_< >_>

I sincerely doubt that doing the leg drop is the only reason why Hogan needed back surgery.

The legdrop is what blew out Hogan's hips, from what I heard. The back is probably the result of his schedule, wear n' tear, his size, steroid use...the culmination of his life pretty much.

Back injury is just from wrestling for over 20 years. All the slams he took, moves he did will eventually lead to that. Austin also was smaller, and wrestled different. Genetics too

All bodies are different. And Hogan had a longer career and was a bigger guy, and wrestled in the days when you wrestled every night (and sometimes twice on weekends). And Austin had the sense to shut down occasionally with injuries, Hogan almost never did during his prime.

Well if you look at Hulk's career.
He started working a heavy schedule in what? 1983? From 1983 until 2003 I can think of 3 major breaks and that's it.
But for close to 10 years in the WWF he was working probably twice a night and every single PPV. WCW at the start he was working every Nitro and even during the nWo he was still working 2-3 times a month.
If you look at Austin he worked from like 91-2002 but had a couple of major breaks in between and near the end of his run slowed down on the schedule before going into retirement in 2002 and making the odd appearance.
Hogan working so much is why his back and everything else is in ruins. Austin got out before he became crippled like Hulk is now.

Why are Greg Oden's knees ruined from basketball but Shaq's aren't?

It's the skullet. Austin had the good sense to shave his balding head. Hogan just kept growing it out and his body couldn't handle the disproportionate weight.

Austin was smart and became a brawler. Hogan didn't.

Austin was smart and became a brawler. Hogan didn't. You can't become something you already are. Maybe earlier was arguable, but what was he doing in his WCW run if he wasn't "brawling"?
