As aforementioned, Chyna and Steve Austin were friends dating back to their time working together in the WWF.

As key components in the 'Attitude Era', both interacted heavily, especially when Austin was working matches against Triple H. One evening in Germany, things turned sour for 'The Rattlesnake' after he put his hands on the woman.

During a house show match in the late 1990's, Austin nailed Triple H with a Stone Cold Stunner. Looking to interfere and help her man avoid defeat, Chyna entered the ring. Stopping the dominant female in her tracks, Austin flattened her with another Stunner, sending the live crowd crazy.

Most fans enjoyed what they were seeing, but one man decided he didn't like Austin physically assaulting a woman. Jumping the barrier, he jumped on the wrestler's back. Saving the day, Triple H pulled the man off and floored him.

Incredibly, Austin said on his podcast he was under the impression that one of his peers had decided to play a rib on him, running out from the backstage area to interject.

That wasn't the case. It actually was an unruly fan unable to control his emotions!
