Steve Austin is a WWE Hall of Famer, and many consider him to be the greatest WWE Superstar of all time. Whether or not he is the greatest is up for debate, but there’s no denying that Austin knows what it takes to get over with the fans.

Sunday night at No Mercy, WWE gave the fans a match they’ve been waiting to see for a long time when Braun Strowman challenged Brock Lesnar for the WWE Universal Championship. In the end Brock put Braun down with one F5, and during a recent interview with Baby Huey & Bimbo Jimbo of 107.7 The Bone, and Steve Austin said that he was surprised when he heard about the finish.

“In hearing that I was surprised in that finish as well. Both guys I consider friends, but they have built Braun to be The Monster Among Men, and to me maybe you got to have something, a couple of F-5s or something to put a chink in the armor before the F-5 to keep Braun Strowman, The Monster Among Men down for a three count. I have not seen the match, but from what you guys are telling me I would probably would tend to agree.”

Austin also opened up about his heel turn at WrestleMania X7, and he once again reiterated that he wishes he had called an audible and hit Vince with the Stunner at the end of the match.

“When I look back I would never have changed, but you know when I was caught up in it and Vince always likes to do something big at a Wrestlemania…I just said “Hey man, how about me turning heel?” So, it was my idea because I always liked working heel. I enjoy being the bad guy. I had a great time as that edgy Stone Cold baby face don’t get me wrong it was a blast, but when you do that for a couple years you just want to change…Looking back if I was to go back in time I would have shook his hand and said watch the Stunner, and just dropped him. I’m sure he would have been fine with it…At the end of the day no one wants to see John Wayne as the bad guy. After the people invested so much emotion and love into the Stone Cold persona and character and lived vicariously through everything I did they didn’t want me to be a heel, and I don’t blame them.”
