While Steve Austin can make a strong case he is wrestling's G.O.A.T., he would not be served well to step into an mma cage.

Steve Austin was a tremendous professional wrestler, trained by no less than ring general Chris Adams. But his actual combat sport experience is non existent. As much as we love the toughest S.O.B. on the planet, we'd have to say he wouldn't do well in MMA.

And that's not even factoring in his numerous injuries accumulated throughout his illustrious career. Everyone can see the knee braces, but his neck was also injured by Owen Hart's botched piledriver. Steve Austin has no business in an MMA cage, and he knows it.
