I was referring Eric telling him that a guy in black trunks and black boots "never getting over." This was before the injury.

Austin was always good. Only thing he needed improvement on was his promos and working with Pillman did a great deal on that front. The plan was going to be putting him with Harley Race, and he DEFINITELY would have improved on the mic with him.
