Austin was never 6'1" though, I agree on that. You would agree that's accurate late at night. I think 6'0. I agree, he's never looked 6'1". The Mexican mentors height list had him at cm. He always looked like a cm guy in his prime, even with his wrestling lifts. He barely looked taller than peak cm Michaels in their stare downs, and looked pretty even with 6 ft Bret Hart. I am including the fact that he was bald, even at that time, otherwise I would have him at a flat cm.
He still maintains good posture, despite a few surgeries by 54, so today I would have him at 6 ft, or 5' Good work dude, :D This is a lot more reasonable, and is much more arguable. We now also have Rawdshaq who seen him in person and said he was shorter than Seth Rollins who is max 6'0. Rob there seriously isn't a single chance he's 6'1. I don't know why you are ignoring all this recent evidence to suggest he's around 6'0" now, maybe even 5' We could all be wrong and maybe he's over 6'0" I have no clue what makes you suggest he's this height in Editor Rob.
I think today he could be , though I am not sure he is only cm That's around 6. Austin's head is slightly tilted up. Peak height for Stone Cold though, I really think 6'1" - 6'1. I believe a peak height for the Rock of 6'2. I don't believe the Rock had him by a full 2". Don't be fooled by the camera angles that were showed on TV. He looked 6'0" to me, I suppose he could measure 6'0. Btwthey look same height.
But Probably i give Austin cm now against cm listed punk. Maybe Not sure how tall Lynch is though. It's impossible!!! Count me as another. I mentioned last month that he can look now. If Rob lowered Triple H, what's stopping him from lowering Austin? In his prime I agree he was 6'1. Looking max 6'0" with 5'5.
An inch loss at 54 for a wrestler with neck problems is possible. I used to mention a lot how he got measured at 6'1. So my apologies. He is just no way in hell as listed.
We can all agree that there is zero chance he's 6'1. Unless Goldberg was never more than a strong 6'1" guy. There couldn't have been more than 1. He wasn't even a full 2" shorter than the Rock, who was at least a strong 6'2" guy in his prime.
Stone Cold was also obviously more than just 2" taller than Kurt Angel, anyone with eyes can see that. I could definitely see arguing 6'0. But I don't agree with 6'0" flat peak. Quite a few photos floating around Click Here Click Here. Stone Cold is barely looking 5'11" in those pics. Maybe Stone Cold is someone you should give a current listing to.
He's probably still and hasn't shrunk at all. He looks Rock was never taller than Funny how the Mexican mentors height list was accurate for them. He's obviously shorter than he's listed. I'm not denying that 6'0" could be his current height though. I know another actor Jeffrey Dean Morgon who is atleast 6'1" and has looked below 6ft with bad posture on an occasion.
I guess Stone Cold wasn't standing at his best in that photo, he looks 6inch shorter than the other man. He looks so short with He looks 5'9. That photo Steve does look 6'1" but remember that is wrestling. Stone Cold was max 6'0. Never 6'1". Steve Austin has lost some height but I doubt very much he is under 6'. We know Angle was 5'10" because Alex 6'0" met him in person and has a pic on the site.
Alex was measured in person by Rob. Steve was all of 6'1" at his peak and now down to 6'0. Mad respect for the man, but 6'1. He was measured at I spot a 1. I see you don't comment on him with Lundgren who Rob has also met. He doesn't look any more than cm shorter and Lundgren is a solid cm. Hence his 6'2" shoe claim. However the man himself admits that he has lost height and so I believe he is now under. Click Here Certianly didn't look over 6'0.

Wealthy Persons. Steve Austin. Please enter your comment! Please enter your name here. You have entered an incorrect email address! Austin entered a feud with The Undertaker that resulted in a number-one contender's match for the Undisputed WWF Championship at Backlash, which Austin lost despite having his foot on the rope when he was pinned.
The commentators struggled to keep Austin's opinions on a neutral wavelength, leading to the WWE apologizing to fans for the outburst and stated it was not part of Austin's current or upcoming storylines.
McMahon responded a week later on the same show playing down the outburst, claiming that Austin was merely the type of wrestler who was occasionally difficult to work with. For the remainder of , Austin kept a low profile and did not make any public appearances. It was reported, however, by the end of the year, Austin and McMahon met and resolved their differences. He then agreed to return to the company in early In an interview with WWE Raw Magazine, he announced deep regret over the situation that led to his departure and how he had left, and deeper regret over inaccurate speculation regarding his alleged grudges held against other WWE wrestlers, claiming he had no problem with Scott Hall rejoining the company.
However, he admitted he still held strong reservations about his singles match with Hall at WrestleMania only lasting seven minutes and felt the build-up to the match did not live up to the expectations of his fans or Hall's and was angered by speculation suggesting he disagreed with Kevin Nash re-joining the company, insisting he and Nash have always been good friends.
He, however, maintained his displeasure with the storylines and creative changes the WWE had imposed around the time of his departure. Austin confessed he had a major rift with Triple H's role in the company upon his return in but insisted as of they resolved their issues.
Also, he claimed a brief dispute with The Rock was resolved quickly upon his return, and that none of his disputes with the talent roster continued or played the major part in his departure. Austin would wrestle only one match between then and WrestleMania, in another short match against Bischoff on Raw. He entered a feud with The Rock, who returned about the same time as a smug, Hollywood sell-out heel.
On June 15, , Debra Marshall called the police to the couple's home and told officers that Austin had beaten her on the head, back, and legs then stormed out of the house before police arrived. According to police reports, Debra suffered a swollen cheek and eye and bruises to her back and shoulder. Austin called the house while officers were there and was told he was in trouble but declined a request to return to the house or report to the police station.
On August 14, , Austin was arrested and charged with domestic abuse. Marshall told Fox News that Austin beat her three times and that the incident was the result of roid rage.
She also stated that WWE knew of the abuse, working to conceal the bruises on her face, and kept her from revealing that Austin hit her, as it would cost the company millions of dollars. Austin responded to the incident in through WWE Raw Magazine, citing his regret over their relationship breaking down and stated his love for Marshall.
He also ridiculed allegations that the incident was alcohol-related. One of Austin's taunts during the Attitude Era was to show the middle finger. In August , Austin cut a promo, debuting his catchphrase "What? Rikishi admitted to being the driver because "he did it for The Rock".
Rikishi felt that Austin occupied the top spot in the company and with Austin gone, The Rock, a fellow Samoan, would finally be able to ascend to the top of the company. During the match, Austin attempted to drive his truck into Rikishi, who by that time was a bloody mess. Before he could, he was stopped by officials, with the match being deemed no contest. Austin was kayfabe arrested and later bailed out by Commissioner Foley. During a handicap match against Rikishi and Kurt Angle, Triple H came down with the apparent intention of teaming with Austin.
After clearing the ring, Triple H smashed his sledgehammer over Austin's head and revealed it was him behind the whole scheme, devised to shield the WWF Championship from Austin and end his career. At Survivor Series, Triple H had plotted to run Austin down again during their match but his plot failed when Austin lifted Triple H's car with a forklift, then let it drop 20 feet.
Austin won his third Royal Rumble in January , last eliminating Kane. On September 13, , Austin married wrestling valet Debra Marshall. Austin filed for divorce from Marshall on July 22, , and the divorce was finalized on February 5, Austin also emerged victorious against The Undertaker at SummerSlam.
Austin refused to count for either man and attacked both towards the end of the match. McMahon later fired him, although Austin got revenge by kidnapping McMahon and dragging him to the middle of the ring at "gunpoint", which ended up being a toy gun with a scroll that read "Bang! The Undertaker interfered and hit Austin with a shovel, earning Austin a disqualification victory. However, because the title would not change hands via disqualification, The Rock still kept the championship.
With this victory, Austin qualified for the Royal Rumble. Austin's next definitive chance to exact revenge on Mr. McMahon came during the Royal Rumble match. During the Royal Rumble match, McMahon slipped out of the ring and into the crowd as Austin chased him down.
It turned out to be a trap as McMahon led Austin into the lobby restroom where he was ambushed by members of The Corporation. Austin was injured and taken away in an ambulance. With Austin gone and not in the Rumble match, McMahon joined the announcers' table in calling the match. Austin won the Royal Rumble, lastly eliminating The Rock.
The next night on Raw Is War, Austin interrupted Vince McMahon in his presentation of Mike Tyson, who was making a special appearance, over the objection of McMahon referring to Tyson as "the baddest man on the planet". Austin flipped off Tyson, which led to Tyson shoving Austin much to McMahon's embarrassment, who began to publicly disapprove of the prospect of Austin as his champion.
This was Michaels' last match until as he had suffered two legitimate herniated discs and another completely crushed at the hands of The Undertaker in a casket match at the Royal Rumble. On the Raw Is War after Austin won the WWF World Heavyweight Championship, Vince McMahon presented him with a new title belt and warned Austin that he did not approve of his rebellious nature and that things could be done "the easy way or the hard way".
Austin gave his answer in the form of another Stone Cold Stunner. This led to a segment a week later where Austin had pledged a few days prior in a meeting to "play ball" with McMahon, appearing in a suit and tie, with a beaming McMahon taking a picture of himself and his new corporate champion.
The entire thing was a ruse by Austin who in the course of the segment proceeded to tear off the suit, tell McMahon it was the last time he would see Austin dressed like this, punch his boss in the "corporate grapefruits" and take another picture of the two of them while McMahon was doubled over in pain.
In April , it appeared Austin and McMahon were going to battle out their differences in an actual match, but the match was declared a no-contest when Dude Love made an appearance. Austin managed to retain the title despite McMahon acting as the referee and his "Corporate Stooges" Gerald Brisco and Pat Patterson as timekeeper and ring announcer, respectively. McMahon continued to do everything he could to ruin Austin and he finally scored a big victory for his side at King of the Ring. Austin lost the WWF Championship to Kane in a First Blood match after The Undertaker accidentally hit him with a steel chair while the ref was incapacitated, despite Austin having knocked Kane unconscious and thwarted an earlier intervention by Mankind.
Raw Austin has also appeared as the cover athlete for several video games, including WWE 2K During the Royal Rumble match, Austin was originally eliminated by Hart, but the officials did not see it, and he snuck back into the ring and eliminated Hart by throwing him over the ropes, winning the match himself.
Austin was eliminated early from the four-way match at the event after injuring his knee, and Hart would eventually go on to win the match and the championship.
At WrestleMania 13, Hart defeated Austin in a highly acclaimed submission match with Ken Shamrock as a special referee. During the match, Austin had been cut and was bleeding profusely from his face, but he still refused to tap out when Hart locked in his Sharpshooter.
Austin finally passed out from blood loss, still held in the Sharpshooter, and lost the match. After the bell, Hart continued to hold the Sharpshooter on Austin, who despite his wounds refused any assistance back to the locker room, thus turning Hart heel and Austin babyface in a rare double-turn. However, Austin portrayed an anti-hero instead of a traditional babyface. Austin faced Hart once again in a street fight on April 21 episode of Raw Is War, injuring his opponent's leg with a steel chair during the bout.
