Steve Austin Speaks on Favorite Beers, RAW, Lots MoreThanks to Janet for sending us this conference call recap done with The Baltimore Sun's Kevin Eck with Steve Austin.

His favorite Raw moment: "I had so many classic moments with Vince McMahon and all the vehicles I got to drive. I think really one of my favorites was whacking Vince in the head with the bedpan when he was in the hospital. I really enjoyed my moments in the ring working angles with Bret 'The Hitman' Hart. Anytime I was in the ring with him was a lot of fun also, and he really kind of helped put me on the map in my career. Man, you're talking about 15 years. It's hard for me to pick a favorite. I remember when the show first started. It was just a different kind of wrestling show, a different kind of energy, and really just kind of reinvented the sports entertainment business."

How he's doing physically and why he hasn't gotten back in the ring to wrestle: "Where I'm at physically right now, I feel pretty dang good. When you last 15 years in the ring with my type of style, which was very physical, very aggressive, you're going to have some wear and tear. But where I'm at in my life, I feel really good. I'm down at my ranch right now. I've been deer hunting for three weeks. I'm heading back to Los Angeles tomorrow; I've got some projects going on there that we're going to start in January. I could probably, if I really wanted to and if I needed to, I could go out and get two hard years in the ring, but at this point it?s not worth it. I feel really good, and in 10 years when I'm in my fifties, I want to still feel this good, so it's time to hang it up."

Which young wrestlers will make the biggest impact in WWE: "John Cena just gets better and better; unfortunately, he;s sidelined with an injury. Ken Kennedy was doing really good there for a while, but I think he kind of lost track a little bit. I think it was too many people trying to give him too much advice, and he needed to go back to what he was doing, but I think he's going to get there. MVP, physically, as a mechanic in the ring, is really good. I like the guy. He still needs to think about the entertainment part of it. I think Randy Orton is really, really good in the ring. I'd like to see him a little bit better on the microphone still, and have an extra gear in his work, but he'd be one of the top guys. I could go on and on and pretty much go down the roster, but those are the guys that are up there right now. Umaga has really impressed me. All of the Samoan guys have always been great workers in the ring and he's no different. He's a great big man, and I wish they'd keep pushing him and using him even more than they are. He's really, really good."
