Steve Austin Wishes TNA Good Luck Against WWE, & More

WWE Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin appeared on Hardcore Sports Radio this week and discussed TNA Wrestling challenging WWE on Monday nights. Despite the fact that Austin is aWWE guy through and through, he says “competition is great for the business” and hopes TNA can give WWE a run for its money.

“I wish the TNA people all the luck in the world because it means more of the boys have jobs and it gives fans an alternative” Austin said.

“TNA has a lot of the WCW pieces in place (Hogan, Bischoff, Flair, Sting, The Band), but Austin doesn’t know if TNA will ever be able to reach WCW’s popularity peak. “I don’t know if we’ll ever re-create that Nitro-Raw war,” he said. “WCW kicked our ass for two years, then we smoked their ass and never looked back and put them out of business.”

Even though he wishes good luck for TNA, he knows it will be close to impossible for them to realistically push them to the brink like WCW did. “I don’t think anyone will ever come close to really giving true competition to WWE because they’re so far ahead of the game, they’re rooted in their system, and they’re a winner.”

Also, Austin posted a number of messages on his Twitter page regarding his appearance as the guest host of RAW last night. “With 2 weeks to go to mania, had to work within story lines. Couldn’t give stunners to everyone, they have a huge ppv . promoted DAMAGE,” Austin said. “The pg thing is a real deal. great direction for the wwe. a wise decision. although that took 92% of my vocabulary away.”
