Can't answer, question not specific enough.

Don't mean to come off as rude, but what exactly is Rush then?

Rush is simply too good to be put in a genre. LOL

Rush is a heavy stadium rock band with some prog overtones. Lot's of bands have prog overtones--Majority of Rush fans wouldn't listen to Tales or Lamb if their life depended on it.LOL

I've never seen Rush as an arena rock band. I've always seen them as a progressive hard rock band. Also, most people I know who like Rush also like Yes. What Rush album/s have you heard, if you only heard their debut or Roll the Bones, I could see how you could reach that conclusion.

Rush has been my favorite band since about 1980 so Rush it is.
I do like Genesis though :)

In 1976 Rush managed to out-silly Genesis in the embarrassing-costume-contest. Rush it is!

I've only seen them once - at the San Diego Sports ARENA! Does that taint my opinion? It at least makes them a progressive, hard rock, arena band.

^True, that does make them an arena band. When I hear 'arena rock' though, I think of bands like Def Leppard, Whitesnake, etc. LOL

Many commenters here already had a clear favorite.  I did not.  I love both of these bands so much!  I go to them for different reasons.  They each have had such illustrious careers.
 
Here's why I gave it to Rush - both bands became more commercially accessible in the 80's, but Rush's lyrics got better, where Genesis' got much less interesting.
