5 Unheard stories Stone Cold revealed in Hot Ones interview

#4 Austin's beer celebration in Japan

Austin

One of the biggest highlights of Stone Cold's illustrious career has been his beer bash celebrations. Austin's beer bashes have given us some of the biggest and most memorable moments in the history of WWE. One that immediately comes to mind is when Austin came out to the ring in a beer truck and proceeded to give The Corporation (Vince McMahon, Shane McMahon, and The Rock) a beer bath in one of the greatest moments in the history of Monday Night Raw.

Austin recalled a beer celebration in Japan, alongside Stacy Keibler and The Dudley Boyz, and stated that a total of 128 beers were used that night. He added that lots of beer gets spilled and wasted, so as to make sure that he doesn't get hammered at the end of the celebration.

#3 Ridiculous names pitched to Austin

The Ringmaster

When Austin requested a gimmick change back when he donned the persona of The Ringmaster, he was given a bunch of ridiculous names by the creative team. Otto von Ruthless, Ice Dagger, and Fang McFrost were just a few of several names that were pitched to Austin.

The Rattlesnake talked about watching an HBO special and coming up with the idea of a ruthless character, which he then pitched to WWE. The officials pitched temperature-based names to Austin, which irked him to no end. Thankfully, none of these names were passed and Austin got the idea of 'Stone Cold' during a conversation with his now ex-wife.
