Top of the Pops

By Scott Keith on August 18, 2020

The question about the Ric Flair pop got me wondering: Who got the biggest pop ever?

Austin wins the WWF title, 1998
Flair returns to Nitro, 1998
Foley wins his first WWF title, 1999
Bret returns to Canada on Nitro, 1999
Austin returns at Backlash, 2000
Undertaker returns at Judgment Day, 2000
Jericho/Benoit win the tag titles on Raw, 2001
Triple H returns from quad injury, 2002
Hogan in Montreal after WMX-8, 2002
Cena returns from injury at the Royal Rumble, 2008
Rock returns to host WM, 2011
Shield reunites, 2017
Edge returns at the Royal Rumble, 2020

I'm sure I've missed a whole bunch of likely contenders, but that's a baker's dozen of pretty huge moments. Which one of these had the biggest crowd reaction? Or was it something else altogether?

Gotta be the Foley title win, although specifically it's Austin's run-in that was the biggest pop I've ever heard.
