WWE Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin recently spoke to Rolling Stone about his wrestling career and more.
During the interview Austin praised WWE’s crew by emphasizing that it’s tough work writing three hours of Raw every week and two hours of SmackDown. He said that he doesn’t always agree with the moves they make but he tries not to nitpick it because he knows they’re trying their best.
He went on to talk about wrestlers getting sucked into the part lifestyle and he noted that he always hung out with the drinking crowd in WWE. But he followed up by saying no matter how much he drank or how good he felt, nothing even compared to the feeling he got when he walked through the curtain.
“Goddang, I’ll tell you what. When you walk out, and that f–king glass breaks, and those motherf–kers jump out of their seats, there ain’t nothin’ like that in the world. As drunk as I ever got, nothing touches that feeling. In my life, what replaces that or comes close? Nothing.”
Steve Austin has already confirmed that he will be making an appearance at WrestleMania 32 but what his role will be is unknown at this point.
This is in my view yet another reason why WrestleMania is not as great nor exciting a card as it should be because of pathetic planning and a complete and TOTAL lack of imagination by the owner of the WWF in Vince McMahon due to the fact that instead of using the momentum and the huge opportunity he had both 2014 & 2015 with the arrival of Sting into the federation and his subsequent feud with HHH and match with him at WrestleMania XXXI along with the additional returns of both DX and the nWo at the event,this could and should have the been the precise chance to not only have a prolonged feud involving HHH and Sting which could lasted all the way to Survivor Series 2015 but also a feud pitting DX as in X-Pac,Jesse James,Billy Gunn,& Shawn Michaels Vs.the nWo comprised of Buff Bagwell,Scott Hall,Kevin Nash,and Hollywood Hogan which could have culminated in a 8 Man Tag Team Match showdown at Survivor Series with Vince McMahon on the side of Team WWF/DX and Eric Bischoff returning to be the manager/representative of Team nWo with the stipulations for both matches at Survivor Series being that if Sting defeats HHH,HHH must resign as WWF COO and the Authority would be disbanded but if Triple H defeated Sting must retire and and for the nWo Vs.DX 8 Man Tag Match,the stipulations laid down by both McMahon and Bischoff would have been if Team WWF/DX wins,the nWo disbands and is never allowed on WWF tv ever again,yet if Team WCW/nWo wins,Bischoff gets 100% ownership of the WCW name 25% ownership of the total WWF stock which would by Stephanie McMahon,and the tv rights to Smackdown which if Eric Bischoff and his team WCW/nWo won,the show would have been transformed into WCW Monday Nitro which could have easily set the stage for a full blown WWF Vs.WCW showdown and great inter promotional matches such UnderTaker Vs. Goldberg,Shawn Michaels Vs.Sting and the main event between Hollywood Hogan Vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 32 in Dallas.
In closing,the reason we didn’t get to see those matches was and is because of Vince and his massive ego and chronic inability to recognize when the chance to make millions of dollars and shake up the wrestling world by simply doing what the fans want and that is great superstar doing battle and even greater action and matches in ring is clearly staring him in the face.
Vince McMahon=Blithering,Incompetent,Clueless Idiot!!!!!
