WWE Hall of Famer and three-time World Championship Wrestling (WCW) World Heavyweight Champion Diamond Dallas Page recently spoke to GiveMeSport.com. During the interview, Page revealed that the storyline that was given to him back in 2001 where he was stalking The Undertaker and his now ex-wife Sara was originally pitched to "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, but Austin refused to do the angle:
āI hated the idea at first. Iām trying to be a team player and this is Hollywood so to speak, weāre trying to blur the lines of reality and not reality ā youāre not really stalking her ā but thatās the role you want me to play in a world where some people believe what the sā is! When youāre doing something like a stalker idea, they built this storyline and couldnāt get anybody to do it ā thatās the real deal. They wanted [Steve] Austin to do it. And Austin is like āfā that!ā and he told me about that later and I was like āYou couldnāt have called me up and said that to me?!'"
