WWE Legend & Hollywood A-Lister Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson recently took to Twitter and praised WWE Hall Of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin for being a “tough SOB” in the ring.
A few days ago marked The 20th anniversary of Austin’s beer truck bath on The Rock, Vince McMahon & Shane McMahon. The Rock would remember his legendary WrestleMania 15 Match with Stone Cold Steve Austin, which saw Austin defeat The Rock for The WWE Title in a No DQ Match that had WWE Hall Of Famer Mick Foley (Mankind) as the special referee.
The Rock wrote the following on the match, “My tough SOB brother @steveaustinBSR was operating here with a legit broken neck so we had to be creative with keeping our physicality to a minimum until our big WrestleMania match. The result was one of the most entertaining segments to ever take place on LIVE TV.”
That tweet would then lead to The Rock defending Former WWE Writer Vince Russo.
Former Empire Of Soccer Editor & Wrestling Fan David Martinez would respond to the beer truck video and write, “You know, @THEVinceRusso catches a lot of crap, but segments like these are the ones that captured my imagination as a young fan and had me tuning in each and every week. The writing. The talent. What an amazing time to be a fan. Thanks to all involved!”
The Rock would then respond to Martinez and say that he had a great time working with Russo. The Rock said, “Not sure why @THEVinceRusso would catch crap over this. I had a great time working with that guy. I had some crazy out of box ideas and never once did he bat an eyelash. He’d always say, “f–k yeah let’s do it”. And we did. And we killed. Always fun!”
