During the peak of the Attitude Era, The Undertaker began hounding Vince McMahon's family, talking about a higher power who was behind it all. Vince McMahon pleaded with his longtime enemy Austin to help him fend off The Undertaker and The Ministry.
Later, in one of the most shocking reveals of all time, Vince turned out to be the higher power. This led to Linda McMahon and Stephanie McMahon coming out on the ramp and leaving Vince horrified by stating that they had appointed Stone Cold as the CEO of WWE!
The disturbing storyline took a hilarious turn as Austin completely changed how WWE's Stamford HQ and its employees worked. The changes that Austin made included beer drinking contests among the employees and dropping manure inside the office.

Austin didn't remain inside Stamford for long, but the storyline managed to leave a lasting mark in the annals of WWE history.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
