#4 Stone Cold Steve Austin

A not-so-rare sight

You probably saw this one coming from a mile but let's face it, this list would've totally incomplete without the inclusion of Stone Cold Steve Austin. During his tenure with the WWF as an in-ring competitor, Stone Cold Steve Austin was by far one of the most controversial on-air characters to have competed in the WWE.

Austin was (still is) considered as the biggest on-air anti-authority figure and during his time with the company, constantly got into trouble with the law. In 1997, Stone Cold was arrested for the first time within WWF premises and unsurprisingly enough, it wasn't the last time either. Matter of fact, Austin was arrested in WWF on two different occasions within that year itself.

Corey Graves deleted his Tweet! More details HERE.

The following year, the Texas Rattlesnake was once again arrested on two different occasions and maintained his track record with the law for the next two consecutive years, as well. If this doesn't already prove the fact that Stone Cold Steve Austin was the most controversial character to have stepped foot in WWE then I don't know what will!
