Austin walks out!

[Tenbatsuzen]

Apparently, Austin got pissed with an angle they were running with him and BROCK~! so he decided to take his ball and go home, which is why Raw was so messed up last night.

I actually liked Raw, there was a lot of fun stuff, but two questions...

1) Where does Trish get off saying that *Molly* has a big ass? THat's like Pot, Kettle, Black.

2) What did Jeff Hardy say when he interrupted Chris Harvard?

From WWE.com:

<b>Stone Cold Steve Austin walks</b>

On March 18, 2002, the day after WrestleMania, without company approval and without notice, Stone Cold Steve Austin walked off the job and failed to appear at WWEA›??s Raw show in Montreal. Stone Cold Steve Austin was advised by WWE management that this was unprofessional and unacceptable. After a two week hiatus, Austin returned to work.

On Monday, June 10, 2002, Stone Cold Steve Austin again failed to appear for the scheduled Raw event in Atlanta, instead choosing to return home to San Antonio without notice and without company approval.

Although Steve was unhappy with his characterA›??s creative direction, Steve made the personal and unprofessional decision not to report to work to address his concerns.

Therefore, Stone Cold Steve Austin is no longer an active member of WWE's talent roster.

I hope Austin's not falling into that - can't differ between character and reality - look what it did for Bret Hart. Plus if Austin walked in '98 or '99 that would have been huge. But in 2002 his career has already peaked and he's on the decline. I think it's a bad move on his part.

Jeers to me, Nerts on you!

Where does Trish get off saying that *Molly* has a big ass? THat's like Pot, Kettle, BlackBecause Molly does have a fat ass, and Trish doesnt.

As far as Austin, I think it's a bad move for him to walk out. I mean there is plenty of talent that would LOVE to get the air time Austin would get. His story line with NWO sucked, his story line with Flair sucked, and he couldnt stand to get an ass kicking by Brock because he's afraid of actually letting him be "the next big thing". It's a shame when egos get in the way.

i assumed he didn't want to go up against brock because they never fought before and since brock is a newbie, and austin's neck and knees are held together with paste, it could be trouble. at least tell him who he's gonna fight before he gets there

is this a work? they talking about this on the show confidential this weekend so maybe it's a work.

i don't know what he's figuring. there's nothing wrong with jobbing. it builds character and people will forget about it once you get that next big win.

I think it's real, but they are going to turn it into a angle.

The WWE never EVER talked about shit like this on tv if it was real.

The WWF hasn't needed Austin since he left due to his neck surgery. He's a semi-impressive wrestler when 100%, now he's a joke with the dick-to-the-mouth Thesz press. Now if Rocky would finally sit the fuck down too, maybe we'd see some real action in the ring...

And if Hart had just walked away when he was unhappy, we'd remember him as one of the all time greatest, instead of a crybaby....

Because having a Goldberg did <I>so much</I> for WCW's future. I don't blame Austin one bit for refusing to help create another monster....

wife beater or no, Austin <b>SAVED</b> the WWE, and wrestling, period. They should be treating him better, instead of coddling Hogan, who tried to destroy the company.....

[synthfiend]

What I don't understand is the man fought back from a neck injury to do just walk away? Why would it be so easy for him to walk if he fought as hard as he did to get back into the game? The problem with the whole Steve Austin thing is that there's no real logic to it.

Stop asking the Fiend how he feels! He never feels good and he hates you ALL!!

[TheKnicks23]

Yeah hes too much of a wuss to stay on for any longer. The WWE is much better without him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
