WWE News: Stone Cold Steve Austin hasn't quit drinking alcohol

What's the story?

Recently, Stone Cold Steve Austin revealed that he hadn't had a drink in over two weeks as part of a new diet. Along with a new workout regimen which includes some yoga, courtesy of Diamond Dallas Page, the Hall of Famer said it was the best he's felt in years, though news of him quitting alcohol didn't sit well with fans.

In case you didn't know...

The multi-time world champion shocked a lot of wrestling fans when he said he'd quit drinking. Stone Cold Steve Austin and beer go together like peanut butter and jelly. He even has his own brand of beer, Broken Skull IPA.

So to hear that he'd sworn off alcohol for a healthier lifestyle seemed to hurt the Stone Cold faithful. Thankfully, it seems he may have been misunderstood.

The heart of the matter

On the latest edition of the Steve Austin Show, Austin decided to confront the idea that he'd sworn off alcohol forever.

There ain't no room in my diet for alcohol at this point in time. I didn't swear off alcohol forever. Why in the f*** would I do that? I enjoy alcohol responsibly as an adult, so therefore I will probably drink until my final day on Earth.

Austin said that he's very serious when it comes to his diet, but is eagerly anticipating the day when he can drink again.

What's next?

If you'd like to keep up with Austin's diet and everything else he's focused on, you can listen to new episodes of the Steve Austin Show every Tuesday and Thursday at PodcastOne.

With Steve Austin finally putting this terrible rumor to bed, we can all sleep soundly at night knowing that when his diet is over, the Rattlesnake will crack open a cold one in celebration.
