Hell son, like good old Jim Ross would always say, "STONE CALL! STONE CALL! STONE CALL!!"
Well god dang, what was my famous line? Stone Call A-U-S-T-I-N-3-1-6 for the inside information from Mean Gene on the hotline, you mealy mouth summa mabytch.
Vince Mcmahon, with that stack of dimes he calls a neck, was trying to gimme a gimmick. He said I could be Chilly McPhone, Otto Von Answering Machine, or Ice Ringer. Well, I looked at that shyt and knew it was a rib. Then my wife (at the time) says "Steve, you better eat your damn steak before it gets stone....." And then the phone rang. Hell, I'm just a redneck who jerks off to the Rock even more than I jerk off to porno, but even my dumb ass was able to put 2 and 2 together. And Stone Call Steve Austin was born.
