Stone Cold Steve Austin is and always will be one of the greatest talkers of all-time. After the finals of the 1996 King of the Ring, Austin gave us another epic promo, which is where the number 9 quote came from.
Austin faced off against Jake the Snake Roberts in the King of the Ring tournament finals. During this time, Jake was using the religious, Bible thumping gimmick and that gimmick was the focus of Austin's post-match promo, which is where the number 9 quote, the following statement was excerpted from.
"Austin 3:16 says I just whipped your ass!"

About the author
J. Carpenter
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
