WWE 2K16: 10 Things You Need To Know About Stone Cold's Deal

5. Austin Will Be Getting Paid More Than Any Star In WWE 2K History

When Ultimate Warrior and Sting inked their deals with 2K, it was financially very good offers. But Stone Cold Steve Austin is a whole other level of star, and in the past has demonstrated that he's a very savvy business negotiator. He's experienced in putting together commercial deals, be it for a product, television show or film. Even in his wrestling days, he was one of the most calculated operators when it came to negotiating with Vince McMahon. That business acumen will have no doubt bagged Austin a very good deal to front 2K16. He doesn't come cheap and 2K will have had to pay a significant sum to secure his endorsement. It'll be way over what Warrior or Sting attained. Austin has said it many times in the past, the money needs to be right before he'll ever do business.
