It takes a brave person to flip off the Baddest Man on the Planet. Luckily, 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin wasn't just any bald S.O.B.

Mike Tyson wasn't exactly in the dark about the business of pro wrestling in the lead-up to working opposite The Texas Rattlesnake in 1998, but that doesn't mean he was 100% certain what was going to go down when he came face to face with the fiery Bionic Redneck. As Tyson confessed himself to the WWE Network in the Meeting Stone Cold documentary, the former World Champion boxer had no clue what Austin was going to do when the combustable elements met in the middle of the ring for the very first time.

As he put it:

"I don’t know what happened! I had no idea what’s gonna happen, this guy’s a psychopath. Next thing I know, he’s given me the bird."

It's rather hilarious to note that it was the infamous fighting personality who was the unsure party when these two megastars finally collided. But when all was said and done, Iron Mike and "Cold Stone" kissed and made up in time to make some more headlines at WrestleMania XIV.
