Top 10 Stone Cold Steve Austin quotes

Steve Austin might be the greatest promo of all-time

#6 “You want mercy? Take you a** to church!”

Steve Austin didn’t believe in mercy; he preferred beer and stunners

As mentioned earlier, Steve Austin was a take-no-prisoners anti-hero badass with his own moral compass. He didn’t care if you were the most evil of antagonists or the purest of babyfaces; if you were in his crosshairs, you were a target.

One element of his feuds during the Attitude Era was that he attacked both clear-cut babyfaces and heels with the same enthusiasm. Over the years, many of these ‘good guys’ have tried to appeal to Austin’s supposed good side in the hopes that he wouldn’t kick their asses too badly.

Austin, however, has little understanding of mercy, if any, and has used this reply to anyone that tried to use the argument of moral high ground against him.

Simply put, Austin was the greatest anti-hero in WWE history, and being an anti-hero meant one was neutral in their alignment, attacking anyone and everyone with equal disdain.
