Agreed with Sandman even though it might increase the under-age drinking population.

I agree with this. Not because of any lack of talent on Austin's part, but the WWE wouldn't push the boundaries with him. He'd be a really solid talent that could talk playing a PG character that would not really connect with people on nearly the emotional level that Stone Cold did.

And that's not me taking a shot at PG, just that Austin's rebellion against tradition, of sorts, in the late 90's really helped turn over a new era. With the WWE as adjusted as they are now (which creates a paradox in discussing this scenario, really, given how much Austin has had to do with their success), I doubt he'd be given the same opportunities.

No shit. What I mean is the gimmick of Y2J or the Millenium Man... In terms of era-specfic gimmicks, Y2J takes the cake.

I'm struggling to think of a date in our life times where a gimmick could be based on it.

Maybe 2012, he could be a mexican wrestler prophet called Apocalypto...
