Stone Cold Steve Austin is well known amongst both WWE fans and performers for being able to knock back one or two drinks, and one star who recently admitted to struggling to keep up with him was Ric Flair.
Prior to the 25th anniversary of RAW in 2018, the Nature Boy was freshly let out of the hospital and was told by doctors to take it slow in order for his body to fully recover.
However, whilst speaking on his To Be The Man podcast, Ric Flair revealed that he had a heavy drinking night with Austin after the special episode of RAW.
"My time had come and gone. I had just gotten out of the hospital and I hadn’t really drank that much at all. Hell, I was with Austin and I had 10 micheladas, went upstairs and had an anxiety attack and I thought I was gonna die. I woke up, was fine, so I did it again the next day." H/T Inside The Ropes
2022 was no doubt a year to remember for both Austin and Flair as both iconic stars made their surprise returns to the ring after multiple years away from the action.

"I never thought about that. That would be something. That would be something. I mean Steve Austin, he looks great. He always stays in shape. But it would be very exciting for me personally to see Steve in it," he said. [16:05 - 16:20] H/T Sportskeeda
