Guest Report post Posted June 15, 2002 Seeing as Austin is now gone, still hard to believe if you want the truth. Well what was your favorite memory of the texas rattlesnake? I know he had a lot of great moments but pick one or a couple and post em. - The night after Breakdown IYH 98 when Austin lost the WW(E) title and ruined McMahon's crowning of a new champ. I marked out soo much when austin drove that zambodie (sp?) in to the arena. Classic Austin. - Forget which RAW it was but when Bret Hart had that "broken" leg and Austin got to bret in the ambulence and kicked his a--. Good stuff - Austin attacking McMahon in the hospital. The bedpan hit to the head was great. Funny stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Brian Report post Posted June 15, 2002 WM 13 watching him bleed. Lots of summer of 1997 memories. Austin counting his own pin. Stunner on Shane with the beer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 15, 2002 The Zamboni. Yes. That is really my first real memory of Austin after I started watching wrestling again after just stopping caring in mid-1995. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 15, 2002 WM XIII match with Bret Spraying Vince and Shane with beer Singing with Angle SS 96 match with Bret Luring Bret out of retirement Bret/Austin feud (his best feud) I'll miss the old Austin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 15, 2002 Favorite in-ring moment would be Wrestlemania 13. Favorite non-ring moment would be him arguing with Angle over who loved Vince more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted June 15, 2002 The Raw that you were talking about where Austin kicks Bret's ass is my favourite. It was funny how he was saying all this stuff like, "I said I was gonna beat Bret Harts ass all the way to Canada and thats just what I did." which was getting crazy pops while he added the line "And I did it all without the help of any of you fans", still trying to be heel.

Guest y2jailbait Report post Posted June 15, 2002 When he jobbed to Brock les...............Oh wait, neva happened! Besides that "incident", id say his royal ass kicking he gave to the Nation Of Domanation at IYH Degeneration X. STUNNER ON THE TRUCK YO! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Cataclysm911 Report post Posted June 15, 2002 I think that my favorite Austin moment was his shoot interview in ECW where he made fun of Hulk Hogan & Dusty Rhodes amongst other people. Match wise, it has to be his Wrestlemania match against Bret Hart because it was such a good match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted June 15, 2002 When he caused part of the roof to drop on X-Pac's head. That was some funny shit. Also, the time that him and Kane threw Paul Bearer into the sewer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted June 15, 2002 Didn't he and Kane lock Taker in a meat locker and have him committed that night? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 15, 2002 Didn't he and Kane lock Taker in a meat locker and have him committed that night? Steve Austin was put in the freezer, but wasn't locked in. Austin saved Kane from being thrown in a body bag, by knocking the Taker out with a shove, then he lokced the Undertaker in the freezer. Then at the ned he threatens Paul with scissors, and decides to take him outside, where he throws him the sewer. Kane was commited two weeks later by Vince.

Guest godthedog Report post Posted June 15, 2002 i didn't become an adult wrestling fan till 2000 so i wasn't part of the whole austin craze, but his match with angle at summerslam '01 made a believer out of me. austin's desperation was palatable, i don't know if he's ever been as good as he was that night. i can still watch that match & never get sick of it.

Guest mickberna Report post Posted June 15, 2002 My favorite moment was when Austin chaired the ever-lovin' shit out of the Rock to put him away at WM X-7. That and the Shane mouth-full-o'-beer stunner when he introduced Steve Blackman (!) as Austin's assailant. That was awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 15, 2002 My favorite Austin moment would also be the Shane/Austin/Blackman incident from Unforgiven 2000. I was there that night when he returned and damn if the roof didn't come unglued when the glass shattered! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrEvil Report post Posted June 15, 2002 - his KOTR acceptance speech "You're goin on about Matthew 4:12, John 3:16. Well Austin 3:16 says I just whipped your ass." - the video promo he cut before the WM 13 match with Bret "Pink and Black, what the fuck is that, Austin 3:16 is gonna kick your pink and black ass. You want mercy, you will beg for mercy.... ain't gonna get any." - the crimson mask pass out in that match - the skits with Vince and Angle - his run as paranoid leader of the alliance (for the most part) - singing "Margaritaville" with The Rock. As much as I hate sports entertainment bullshit that was great because of how funny it was, and because of how there was no way to tell which one of them or when they would snap and hit their finisher out of nowhere.

Guest Report post Posted June 15, 2002 I was there the night he came out with the beer truck and gave Vince, Shane, Rock, Etc, the beer bath. Austin destroying Lita with a chair. Anything between Him and Bret Hart. Austin calling out Booker T. Tazz jumps in the ring. Austin looks at him and says, "Unless Booker T got real short and real fat, real fast, you don't need to be in here." Alliance Austin talkin crap to Debra how if he sees Angle he's gonna do this and that, then Steph slams the door and he almost jumps out of his skin. "Damnit Steph! You scared Debra!" The whole Hugging war was too damn funny. Get the "What?" Video to see "bloopers" of the skits. Funny shit seeing Austin & Vince cracking up laughing. The first time he ever used the "What?" thing. Huge Morris did all he could from laughing. Austin laughing, "I feel like CRAP!" Austin trying not to laugh while Steph and the Alliance was singing to him.
