Steve also says he is through with wrestling. Below is where he talks about his transition from wrestler to actor:

Austin on going from pro wrestler to Hollywood actor:

"This is what I'm pursuing full time. I'm through with wrestling. Wrestling was one of the best jobs, the most fun I've ever had in my life, and I had a good time doing it. Fifteen years on the road, it's time to do something else. I have a three-picture deal with WWE Films. I'm trying to find the number two movie right now that we can start shooting ASAP. I'm working on certain projects myself here in Los Angeles, trying to find a script to work with other people, so that's what I have my sights set on. That's what I want to do with the rest of my life. I had a ton of fun on The Condemned and I learned so much. I also realized that I have a ton more to learn and improve. I remember my first wrestling match... I was pretty much terrible, but I turned into being a very good professional wrestler. My goal is to turn into a very good actor, but the only way I'm going to get there is with a lot of repetition."
