Pat McAfee reveals that major WrestleMania moment wasn’t planned
WWE SmackDown commentator Pat McAfee collided with Austin Theory and Vince McMahon at WrestleMania 38. Following the bout, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin made his way to the ring and stunned everyone in sight.
McAfee defeated Theory in his WrestleMania in-ring debut but fell short to The Chairman of the Board. After hitting Theory and Vince with a Stunner, The Rattlesnake celebrated with the former NFL punter by sharing a drink with him. Austin surprisingly hit Pat with a stunner as well, which the latter never saw coming.
Speaking on his podcast, The Pat McAfee Show, the NFL veteran stated that he didn't know if Stone Cold was going to show up or hit with the stunner.
“I was sitting there just befuddled by everything that was going on in my life right there. You know, I’m not good enough in that business for everything that — there was a lot of trust that was placed upon me, I think, that [in] hindsight should not have been. Cause I’m in there like, ‘God damn, I should have been given a heads up.’ How many times have I done this? Three times? I’ve done this three times... they were really confident in me figuring some stuff out, I guess.” (H/T Cageside Seats)
