Steve Austin says he wishes he could have faced Hulk Hogan

“Right off jump street, if I went back to recent history, I’ve got to say Hulk Hogan because [he was] one of the biggest draws in the history of the [professional wrestling] business and everybody thought that match between ‘Stone Cold’ and Hulk Hogan should’ve happened a couple of years back. It never did just for whatever reason and I didn’t feel like stepping back in the ring and I think Hogan was ready to go. I wasn’t and so I never got a chance to wrestle the guy and it would have been fun to be in the ring with him. So I’d say Hulk Hogan right off jump street and I would say because Bruno Sammartino was so highly respected back in the day, if I could go back in time to throw another guy on the list, it’d be a guy like Bruno Sammartino.”
