Kevin Owens Isn’t the First Canadian to Disrespect Stone Cold Steve Austin

Stone Cold Steve Austin is one of the most well-esteemed icons in WWE. For this WrestleMania 38, he is making a massive return on the Kevin Owens show, ready for anything, including a fight. Now, with days left for the big event, Austin is gearing up to face the one who prompted him to the ring after 19 years.

As the feud heating up, Kevin Owens threw major shade, pricking the Texas Rattlesnake on the last Monday night RAW. Owens kicked off the show, entering to the arena with Austin’s theme music, wearing the famous 3:16 shirt, shouting out his catchphrases and all. However, K.O. was not the first to do such a disrespect to the Hall of Famer. It was none other than ‘The Beast Incarnate’.

The Brock Lesnar Entrance with Stone Cold Steve Austin Imitation

The classic Stone Cold entrance is something that lives rent-free in any WWE fan’s heart. When there is the sound of a glass shattering, and the electrifying ‘I Won’t Do What You Tell Me’ resonating all over the arena, Austin 3:16 is the one who pops up. In SmackDown 2004, WWE Champion Brock Lesnar showed up cruising on a dirt-bike as if it was Steve Austin’s ATV that Lesnar stole.

Brock Lesnar rode the four-wheeler around the ring a couple of times. The Beast went on to the ring and did the iconic gesture with both fists in the air, standing on the corner padding. The segment was a few days before Lesnar faced Goldberg in WrestleMania XX. Also, Stone Cold was the special guest referee in the match.

Further, the Canadian teased Austin, saying, “Now, before I beat the hell out of Hardcore Holly tonight, I got a few things I wanna say to Stone Cold Steve Austin.” ‘The Beast’ teased Stone Cold by saying that the dirt bike that belonged to Austin is now his “Brock Lesnar Sportsman 700 four-wheeler”. However, the match ended with Goldberg emerging victorious and Austin giving them both a ‘Stone Cold Stunner’.

Kevin Owens Vs The Texas Rattlesnake

Steve Austin wrestled his last match in 2003 against The Rock in WrestleMania 19. After his defeat vs The People’s Champ, Austin retired from a long-suffering neck injury. But then, Kevin Owens kept on baiting Stone Cold with insults aimed at him and the state of Texas and publicly called him out.

As everyone anticipated, Steve Austin posted the video with WWE accepting the challenge. Later, he has been working out towards the KO show, all in for the big event, whether it’s a show, match, a fight, or a brawl. Moreover, the Canadian wrestler further taunted the ‘Texas Rattlesnake’s imitation of Austin 3:16 entrance. Now, it is going to be a hell of an event!
