WWE Hall of Famer "Stone Cold" Steve Austin recently appeared on the “First We Feast” Youtube channel to talk about a number of topics such as why he thinks WWE legend The Rock was the best talker during the Attitude Era.
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin said:
“You cannot overlook The Rock. When he first arrived on the scene, he was this good-looking, third-generation babyface and people just didn’t take to him. They’d say, ‘Die Rocky Die! Die Rocky Die! He started wearing the silk shirts and he started referring to himself in third person and working that eyebrow. And he electrified and captivated crowds with his catchphrases, his cadence and his delivery, and his message and calling everybody ‘jabroni. He commanded the audience’s respect, attention and elicited the response that he was looking for from them.”
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin also talked about how fellow WWE Hall of Famer Jake "The Snake" Roberts had some kind of presence about him.
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin said:
“Once Jake got in the ring, he commanded your respect. He had this presence about him, and he’s one of the most economic, efficient workers out there, where he didn’t do a whole lot, but everything he did meant something, and he was always working for that DDT.”
