This can be regarded as the beginning of the iconicSteve Austincharacter in the WWE.Austins first official match as his Stone Cold persona was during the 1996 King of the Ring. He won a series of matches, leading to face Jake The Snake Roberts in the final.

Jake, then had a persona of an evangelical Christian who had turned over a new leaf and even started preaching across the country but Austin didnt seem to care about his new relationship with The Almighty, Jesus, defeating him to win the title.

With this led Austin giving one of the greatest speeches in the history of wrestling,You sit there and you thump your Bible, and you say your prayers, and it didnt get you anywhere! Talk about your psalms, talk about John 3:16 Austin 3:16 says I just whipped your ass!

It was with this speech that the Attitude Era had officially begun.

But Austin, who still was a heel, then went on to become one of the greatest all-times fans favourite in the WWE and as said by him, he did make all the top contenders in the company then, "start running through"

Your vehicles are something, you should always keep away from Stone Cold and Vince McMahon perhaps, seemed to have no idea about such. As a result, Austin decided to drive in a cement truck into the parking area where, Mr. McMahons Car was parked.

Mr. McMahons $50,000 car soon became unusable as the Texas Rattlesnake poured a ton of cement into the vehicle as simple ramming it wasnt cool, according to him.

Austin, no where seemed to have a care about the value of car.

#2 Austin \"Bang 3:16\"

The Austin-McMahon feud was simply one of the best, the WWE had seen till date.

Vince McMahon made Stone Cold as the guest referee for a championship match between The Undertaker and Kane terming to a punishment for his previous actions. Austin refused to count for either The Undertaker or Kane. Instead, both were attacked by Austin, leading Mr. McMahon to fire him.

This small setback seemed to have no affect on Stone Cold as he took things into a different level, deciding to kidnap Mr. McMahon and drag him into the ring with a gun, pointed at his head. Mr. McMahon, not knowing the gun was fake ended up urinating himself in front of the millions of viewers.

#1 Beer Truck

Along with several things, that is bound to strike our mind when anyone speaks about Stone Cold, beer and stunner seemed so have a coined phrase among all.

Austin, more or less was like an anti-hero, drinking beer and throwing to all, in his path. Mr. McMahon too, was treated the same by him.

This moment occurred before Mankind won his championship against The Rock. After Mankind, being taunted by The Rock in front of the crowd, Stone Cold showed up in a Coors Light beer truck and drove through the entrance ramp, in order to get into the ring. The Texas Rattle snake rained on The Rocks parade with gallons of cheap beer.

Although this wasnt a wrestling match from any extent, still, such actions, being so badass are never going to happen in the WWE, again.
