10 Most Heated WWE Crowd Reactions Ever
10. Monday Night RAW - March 22, 1999
Steve Austin was so hot during his run as The Man in the Attitude Era that his crowd reactions probably warrant a list of their own - but this was perhaps the most memorable moment of the epic, industry-shaking Mr. McMahon rivalry.
The Rock had already riled the crowd with his typically peerless stick work, promising to end the career of the "biggest piece of Texas trailer park trash walking God's green earth", before McMahon installed him as guest referee for that night's Steve Austin Vs. The Big Show main event. This naturally displeased Austin, prone to laying waste to the ring and dropping everybody in his proximity with the Stone Cold Stunner.
But this was the WrestleMania XV go-home show. It needed something to drive last minute orders, and Austin delivered, driving to the ring in a Coors Light beer truck - nearly removing the TitanTron from the arena rafters in the process.
McMahon sold it with his mouth agape. Austin filled that mouth with beer as the crowd went bananas even by Attitude Era standards. The selling of McMahon, Shane and The Rock made it - they swam in the bath like beached fish in a scene so good it actually excuses the obnoxious calls by cave-dwelling message board morons to BRING BACK TEH ATTITUDE ERA.
