The man is still a legend. Being a televised product, wrestling is going to be seen by a lot of people on any given week. While the modern shows may not have the same audience that it did before, there are still a lot of people who are going to be watching week to week. That can make wrestlers into some major celebrities, with some of them being actual pop culture icons.
With very few exceptions, no wrestler is above or even near Steve Austin. He is one of the true icons of professional wrestling and became one of the biggest celebrities in all of pop culture at the peak of his career. That was over twenty years ago though and Austin’s star power has gone down a little bit. However, he is still someone who is going to be known because of how big he was back then and how many things he still does these days. That list of things has now grown.
Austin is featured in a new music video by Bad Bunny for the song Quien Tu Eres. Austin appears near the end of the video in a fight scene, during which he gives two people Stone Cold Stunners and drinks beers in his signature way. The song itself is performed in a combination of English and Spanish and marks Austin’s first time appearing in a video for Bad Bunny.
Well what else would it be? Check out the music video featuring Austin:
Opinion: There is something to be said about the fact that Austin is still considered someone who belongs in a role like this sixteen years after his in-ring career came to an end. If nothing else, it is impressive that he still looks intimidating enough to play the role. Austin reached a level that no one has ever reached in wrestling and it has given him a career far after his time in the ring came to an end.
