2 years later, as the war between The WWE and The Alliance was heating up, the fans witnessed a 'healthier' version of the beer bath segment.

As the traitor Austin was celebrated with the WCW and ECW Superstars in the middle of the ring, Kurt Angle came out in a mini truck. As Austin and the others watched in confusion, Angle poured gallons upon gallons of milk on them. After Angle was done, he took two packets of milk and drank them while sitting on top of the truck, mocking Austin's beer-can breaking ritual.

Just like Austin in 1999, Angle instantly became the knight in shining armor who was going to save WWE from Austin and his band of dastardly villains.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
