Adam Stephen Kelly of Rolling Stone is featuring an interview with WWE Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin asking what he would like to see in today’s WWE product.
“People go into that arena and they know the fix is in. They know what pro wrestling or sports entertainment is. That being said, they want it executed to the highest level so that they can suspend their disbelief and buy in, and so in a world of make believe you make people believe in you. It’s as real as it can be. It’s not about trying to relive the Attitude Era, it’s not about putting up middle fingers or using four-letter words, it’s about creating a character that people can buy into and believe. Someone they either love or hate, but they’re emotionally invested in. That’s what I would like to see.”
