WWE Hall of Famer Steve Austin recently spoke with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated to talk about a wide range of topics.
During the interview, Austin gave his take on Kevin Owens and WWE building him as the next “Stone Cold.” Here is an excerpt of what he had to say:
“With Kevin Owens, don’t throw my name on there,” said Austin, speaking from his home just outside Los Angeles. “This guy can talk a lot of trash, he is great in the ring, and he’s using my finisher, but hell, no one is going to be the next Steve Austin.
“So just let Kevin be Kevin, put him in good situations and don’t put the brakes on him. If you’re going to run with this guy, then let him be the biggest, baddest, best Kevin Owens he can be.”
