Stone Cold Steve Austin names two SmackDown stars he believes are future Hall Of Famers.
There isn’t many opinions in pro wrestling that hold the weight Stone Cold Steve Austin’s does. When he speaks, fellow wrestlers and fans listen, and now he’s made his opinion known about two of SmackDown’s top stars at present.
While speaking with Bill Apter, ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin talked about attending the recent Reno, Nevada WWE house show. In the main event of the show, Drew McIntyre defeated Sheamus. Austin stated that he believes both McIntyre and Sheamus are future Hall Of Famers.
“Drew and Sheamus headlined the card and they had a tremendous main event, They went probably at least 20 minutes, almost like an anything goes match, and they tore the house down. They were a great main event and everybody loved it. Drew McIntyre is still doing great things. Hell, Sheamus, I love where they’ve got him figured right now.”
They came back after the match and said, ‘Hey, what do you think?’ I said, ‘Come on, guys. Y’all got 40 years of experience between you. Y’all have been in the business longer than I ever was. What can I tell you guys? You’re two professionals!’ Two super great human beings and two Hall of Famers. In all of these Hall of Fames that I’ve been in, they’ll go in as well.”
