Austin vs Lesnar WrestleMania 32: 10 Most Compelling Factors
7. The Stone Cold/Paul Heyman Podcast
"If I was gonna fight Brock Lesnar, I would beat his a**. You sit there with this little grin on your face, but I think you know how it would go down. I'd have to think about it, but the person who would really have to think about it is Brock Lesnar. I don't think he'd want to take all the momentum and all the good stuff you all have done to roll in to 105,000 people and get his a** smoked. I would open a can of whoopa**on Brock Lesnar's a**. We could discuss it".
During the last ten minutes of Paul Heyman and The Rattlesnake's sitdown, it was like a switch had went off, as Austin suddenly snapped into his Stone Cold character. It felt like he was almost about to open up a can of you-know-what on Heyman. That feeling we all got watching Austin turn the volume up is exactly what makes this proposed match so special.
Conversely, it was a moment we all figured was coming, but never imagined would be that good. There are only a few big money matches on deck in WWE right now, with this being biggest one. This podcast dumped gas on the fire.
