1: Stone Cold Steve Austin: Beer
Stone Cold Steve Austin led wrestling through the boom period of the late 90’s as the beer-swilling, anti-establishment, middle-finger raising anti-hero. Stone Cold would come out, kick some behind and deliver a Stone Cold Stunner to anyone who would get in his way.
Some of my first memories of WWE involve Stone Cold and beer. I remember the beer more clearly than some of those matches. Even though Stone Cold wasn’t the first wrestler to drink alcohol in the ring, he was the one who made it iconic.

Stone Cold drinking beer is one of the lasting images of the Attitude Era. Even today, Stone Cold drinks a beer every time he comes to the ring. It’s something fans have grown to expect as a part of his appearance.
