Stone Cold Steve Austin

Give me a hell yeah!

Want to know what Stone Cold Steve Austin’s answer was to the match that ended Jake “The Snake” Roberts career? Austin 3:16 says I just whipped your ass!

Curious about how The Texas Rattlesnake would diffuse a tense situation? He’d probably stomp a mud hole in your ass and walk it dry!

Ever wondered how Stone Cold Steve Austin would reconcile an argument with two people? We’d imagine that involves beer, lots and lots of beer.

Whatever happens, the idea of Stone Cold Steve Austin greeting his guests with a handshake and then giving them the Stunner just warms our heart.

Na, he probably won’t be doing that but USA Network has announced that the iconic wrestler will be getting his own chat show called Straight Up Steve Austin.

The series consists of seven half-hour episodes and it starts on August 12!

The official synopsis states that: “In each episode, Austin and a celebrity guest swap stories about their lives and careers during one-of-a-kind custom-tailored adventures in different cities across America. In this unique interview format, there’s no studio, no couch and no cue cards — just a straight-up good time and some good old-fashioned American fun.”

Becky Lynch, NFL Quarterback Baker Mayfield, and Impractical Jokers star Sal Vulcano are just three of the guests that have already been lined up to participate.

Since retiring from wrestling, Austin has been busy in terms of media work because he presented the competition series Steve Austin’s Broken Skull Challenge and his podcast, The Steve Austin Show, is one of the most famous wrestling podcasts around.

Last month, it was announced that there’s going to be a two-hour documentary on the WWE icon.

We’ll drink to that!
