Throughout the history of professional wrestling, the phrase 'you suck' has been uttered on numerous occasions. Just ask performers like WWE Hall of Famer, Kurt Angle.

Of course, this might logically lead a wrestler to wonder, 'why exactly do I suck?' After all, fans aren't always clear and concise when voicing their disapproval.

Conversely, Steve Austin tends to be very clear when verbally sparring with an opponent. In fact, he once told The Rock, 'you don’t suck because these people say you do, you suck because Stone Cold says so.'

Well, that certainly clears things up, doesn't it? The Rock sucks because 'Stone Cold says so. No ambiguity there.

In essence, the comment manages to be both insulting and yet very informative. Austin always understood that it was important to provide clarity when insulting a man (or woman), which is one of the many reasons he's considered a master of the craft.
