'Stone Cold' Steve Austin has shared a story of when the Big Boss Man missed his mark, during a live event in St. Louis, MO.Ā
"We was working an angle and I donāt remember who I was working with; but, Big Bossman was supposed to run out there andĀ hit meĀ with a chair to cause me to lose the match. We get in the spot. Itās at the end of the match. Thereās no Big Bossman. Heās nowhere to be found. That big bastardās supposed to run out there and cause me to lose the match so we can get off and start working an angle together, so here comesĀ JerryĀ Brisco.
Those old school guys werenāt really good with chairs because they didnāt really use chairs in theirĀ generationĀ and they didnāt sling āem like we would sling āem in the Attitude Era⦠so he comes out there and hits me with this weak ass chair shot. I got to go down. IĀ get beat. I really wanted him to kill me with that chair so IĀ look better; but, anyway as Iām getting to the back, Iām like, āWhere is he?ā.
Here comes Ray. He had been in the back talking to Undertaker while the match was going on.Ā I guessĀ Undertaker was in the main event or had already wrestled and man, IĀ litĀ into Big Bossman. It was the loudest cuss job Iād probably ever done in the history of the business and I never ever lose my cool like that, never in a million years. I really uncorked on Ray because I was really upset he wasnāt there. Not only did he mess up the match⦠but that nullified our angle that we were supposed to work and I was looking forward to working with Ray. He was such a great guy and aĀ great bigĀ man."
