Stone Cold IS the guy who could shoot a man on 5th Avenue and I'd go "Yeah but DUDE its STONE COLD!" His heel turn spawned "WHAT?" that's how much the fans loved him. He was never a "heel" he was an anti-face
You're very right. WWE has scrubbed Debra from every attitude era highlight reel. She was even scrubbed from Jeff Jarretts Hall of Fame Highlight Reel. That's wrong. They can punish her for speaking up on years of forced silence and domestic abuse ? I'm just surprised not more people mention Debra and try to bring some justice to her.
What has happened to Woman (Nancy Toffoloni) is even worse. She had a long and high profile career in WCW and ECW but yet she is never mentioned because nobody wants to think about the reality that Chris Benoit murdered her. Nancy should be in the HOF.
In 2002, Eddie was more of a mid-card with his Latino Heat gimmick in full swing. So if Stone Cold and Eddie had a successful feud, this could have made Eddie a Title Contender WAAAAYYYYY before 2004.
Actually there is a rumor Austin didn't want to work with Eddie at that point. He didn't like that he was feuding with a mid card guy. In 2002 Austin was starting to decline. He wasn't really it anymore. The rock, Kurt Angle, Benoit and booker t were it. Austin was on his last hurrah. He was having problems with his babe Debra in real life too. What a bitch though. Why would you beat up a beautiful women like that.
>He kayfabe attacked women. Oh well, it's an act. He's an actor. He's a heel. What's the problem? It's not like he attacked real women. >The domestic abuse charges. Oh.
Number 11. Steve Austin is not his name. Yes, Steve Austin isn't really Steve Austin. He was born Steven Anderson, but later changed his surname to Williams when he was adopted by a man named Ken Williams. When Steve went to pursue a pro wrestling career, he was asked to change his name. The reason being, there was another, more established, wrestler going by the name Steve Williams. I'm talking about Dr. Death aka the guy who Bart Gunn knocked out during the Brawl For All. Out of respect, the future Texas rattlesnake started calling himself Steve Austin. The Austin part being the part of Texas he grew up in. "Stone Cold" Steve Williams just doesn't have the same ring to it, admittedly....
in one lesser known incident, Austin botched a sitting piledriver on Masahiro Chono in the exact same way Owen broke Austin s neck. Chono had to change his in ring style to a more brawling style the same way Austin did.
+Nukle0n RU-vid, a place where you can make racist, sexist, homophobic and Islamaphobic comments with impunity yet upload 10 seconds of WWE footage and you're account is partially suspended until you watch a silly animation about piracy and answer a quiz admitting what a bad person you are.
The best moment of my childhood and was when Austin and the Rock teamed up to kick the NWO's ass. In my mind, that solidified them both as the two best wrestlers of their era and two among the greats of all time.
Austin got pantsed by Whipwreck in their first match, when Mikey gave him a schoolboy rollup for the pin. But he did cut some awesome promos while in ECW, including one where he did good impressions of Dusty Rhodes and Ric Flair. Austin also Stunned Stacy Keibler because she took a sip of a beer and didn't like it.
He never admitted to anything involving domestic abuse. No one can say for sure but Deborah and other bitter names that were fired went on a tirade against WWE and its biggest names around that time. So one can only guess on the true events around those rumors.
Great video, sad stories. I feel if they didn't put a gag order on Debra, Austin would be getting the Chris Benoit, Hulk Hogan treatment where they don't mention them and very little on the Network about them.
His heel run was a failure only because people didn't boo him, especially a few weeks later from WM17. He did get some crowd disapproval when he hit Lita with a chair though...
Austin was injured when he joined ECW, so he couldn't wrestle. He talks about this in his WWE Beyond the Ring special. They don't want you to forget about it.
Well to be fair about Austin in ECW, he was injured when he got fired by Bischoff, and when he went to ECW. While injured Austin cut a lot of scathing promos on WCW, which helped him improve immensely on the mic. He was there for a few months, so he only had 2 matches because of injury. So ECW helped him immensely in terms of finding his voice, not his in ring work (which he didn't work on anyway). Also it's interesting that when he got to WWE he was in basically the same role he was in WCW when he left. He was a midcarder that could have a great match with anyone, but they never let him talk. Also he was known as a technician in both places. Austin had to take matters into his own hands to create Stone Steve Austin, thankfully WWE let him do this and the rest is history.
@4:50...Amazing they tried to see that, because, lest anyone forget, he started in Texas' WCCW, after having been trained by my instructor--Gentleman Chris Adams--(really, you watch Stone Cold, you see Chris Adams' style of wrestling quite a bit,) and worked as his tag partner against the Von Erics and others for quite some time. I said that to say that everyone in Texas must have seen that and said, "You must be kidding me!"
I dunno, I feel pretty good about not seeing Eddie lose back to back to Austin at the least interesting point of Austin's entire post-Ringmaster wrestling career. As I recall, Eddie came in to feud with RVD instead, and while that didn't have quite the same degree of marquee value, I'm perfectly confident that it resulted in better programming.
+MisterSinister well its completely different if it's for entertainment, but I took OPs comment to refer to actual domestic abuse behind closed doors you fucking edgelord.
#2 I agreed with, to an extent. Lesnar vs Austin should be a main for WM, SS, even Vengeance, not at Raw, but walking out I didn't completely agree with...
I enjoy Stone Cold's mic skills, and he was funny and whatnot, but I never cared much for his wrestling. He didn't do much. Punch, kick, stunner. Even he admits he had like 3 moves. It's a wonder everyone loved him.
steve austins documentary on netflix is actually really good and funny and he explains the whole singing to vince and shit its that much more hilarious when you hear his point of view lol
Hi Adam, if you're still being held hostage it'd be cool if you did videos about other wrestling promotions in the meantime. I'd love to see you do a review of Lucha Underground season 1
No copyright=no more creativity Without copyright you could just steal everything and show it you could copy and paste all the Harry potter books in one and sell them copyright is a bitch but it protects creators
Yeah, but then those video would all be stolen. The music industry would die out along with the film industry and most of tv. That would include wwe so you wouldn't be watching this video.

In a recent video he explained about copyright disagreements with WWE. So I assume this was one of the videos that got taken down and has now been re-uploaded after the legal issues were settled.
I don't care if they want me to forget. Watching Stone Cold whip the Hardy's candy ass was the most heel thing I saw at the time. Especially when Stone slammed Lita with the steel chair multiple times.
I always found it puzzling how he was able to get away with "stunning" Stacy Kielber when he was not allowed to attack anyone unless they physically provoked him. How the fuck does not liking the taste of beer count as physical provocation?!
