He’s kind of a legend. There are certain names that keep coming up in the history of wrestling greats and Steve Austin is almost always on that list. Austin was a master at just about every aspect of wrestling and his style certainly got him some attention over the years. Various things that he has done over the years have become iconic, and you can still see them around today, which was the case this weekend.

There are several things that Austin is noted for and one of the biggest is beer. Austin was famous for drinking several beers after a match, often declaring a beer bash to end his shows. It was such a big part of his persona that he has released his own brand of beer in his retirement. Austin and beer go together, and now another kind of athlete is paying a bit of a tribute to him.

You might recognize this. Check out a pretty cool Austin tribute:

The Miami Dolphins have posted a video of wide receiver Mack Hollins arriving to the stadium for Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Upon arrival, Hollins, in an Austin shirt, is thrown two beers, which he opens up and pours into his mouth ala Austin’s signature pose. The WWE Twitter account retweeted the

Opinion: This is the kind of thing that always makes me smile at least a little bit. Austin might have retired over seventeen years ago, but his legacy is going to be around for a very long time to come. Kids who grew up watching him are going to remember all of the famous things that he did and Hollis would likely fit into that age category. It’s great to see wrestling getting attention like this, even if it is just something quick and fun.
