A few years back, Stone Cold Steve Austin appeared for an interview on Reality Check on PeopleTV‘s YouTube channel. He played a game named ‘Off Cast on Blast’ where he shared one good and a bad habit of the celebrities shown on the titantron.
When Vince McMahon’s picture came, Austin talked and praised his former boss. Moreover, Austin also shared how their feud in WWE helped Mr.McMahon complete his lifelong dream of entering the ring for a match.
Austin said, “My feud with him really helped the Stone Cold character, achieved the heights it did. I would have great things without that feud but with that feud and working for Vince and going on that ride with him because his father never wanted to become an in-ring performer.”
He added, “He started working with me, he got a chance to live out his dreams and be the boss at the same time. So he was having his cake and eating it too.”
McMahon wanted to be a pro wrestler initially, but his father Vince McMahon Sr. forbade him from doing so. However, once he started having matches, The Chairman has not looked back and had a decent in-ring career too with a Royal Rumble and WWE Championship win.

He’s a very unique individual and I absolutely love the guy.”
