Stone Cold Steve Austin on The Howard Stern Show

Like John Cena before him, Steve Austin appeared on The Howard Stern Show this week. Here's a recap:

- Howard promoted his upcoming segment by saying he hears Steve was married and divorced again and that he should have listened to Howard years ago and that Austin is a loser at love.

- Howard said he actually enjoyed the movie Condemned and said that Steve is allowed to be "Stone Cold" again because he is working with Vince McMahon.

- Howard kidded that he was surprised the movie looked good because he felt Vince knew nothing about films, but this film was all action and it worked.

- Steve Austin said this character is closest to his real personality.

- Howard discussed Steve's love life and Steve said he couldn't talk about his last relationship due to legal issues.

- Austin said the script came to him first and he was the one that brought it to Vince.

- They discussed Steve's on/off relationship with Vince and that he left over creative decisions on WWE RAW.

- They discussed Austin's love of hunting and that, while hunting, Jim Ross contacted him and that opened the door to his return.

- Steve said Vince has always be straight when it came to money and that Vince never lied and pays everyone what they are worth.

- Howard asked Steve if he hated Hulk Hogan. Steve said he did not hate Hogan, but felt the match would suck because of Hogan's style of being non aggressive and Steve said he would need to win if that match would ever happen.

- Austin brought up TNA Wrestling and discussed whatever Hogan is doing and said that he doesn't think anybody is competition to Vince, but thinks competition is good for the industry.

- Discussed The Rock. Austin said he has not heard from him in years and has no idea what he is up to. Steve said he doubts he'd play a "gay character" like Rock did and that Steve wants to be an action hero and does not care if he is typecast.

- Howard predicted this film would do well between US box office, foreign and DVD.

- Eric The Midget called and asked Steve if he will be part of WWE TV/PPV's and said he has a long-term deal but won't ever be a regular again. He said he "might" be at Wrestlemania 24 because its' a huge event.

- Austin put over Ken Kennedy as a great talker and up and comer.

- A caller confused Debra with Sable and asked Austin if Brock Lesnar was living with his ex.

- Robin asked if the other two movies did well and Steve said he did not know numbers but knew John Cena "kicked ass" in DVD rentals and was number-one several weeks. Howard confirmed that that was true and is where the money is for action films.
