Steve Austin was once a Million Dollar Champion, but he’s not looking to be a million-dollar mascot.
Logan Paul revealed that he offered Steve Austin $1 million to wear a PRIME bottle costume at WrestleMania 41. The costume has been used on WWE TV before, including IShowSpeed wearing it at WrestleMania 40. During a new episode of his IMPAULSIVE podcast, Paul said that Austin didn’t go for the offer, but thinks it would have been a great payoff.
“Bro, we offered Steve a million dollars to be the PRIME bottle. He didn’t do it, so instead, he fuckin’ ran a poor woman over with an ATV,” Logan Paul quipped. “[He’s never wearing that costume]. Ever! That’s why we offered him a million. ‘Bro, do you want to get in this bottle?’ I don’t think he considered it for a second. [The WWE Universe would] kill him, but it would be so [great]. Imagine it, he takes the mask off of the PRIME bottle and it’s Stone Cold?
“He could’ve done anything [at WrestleMania], which is why I think it would have worked ultimately. Maybe one year. I’m just saying, bro, like… [agrees it’s so much money] for doing nothing!”
Paul said that the idea was for Steve Austin to “toast” with PRIME instead of the beers he typically chugs for a “Stone Cold Beer Bash.”
Logan Paul defeated AJ Styles at WrestleMania 41 on Sunday, although he got an inadvertent assist from Karrion Kross. Austin also appeared on stage on Saturday night with Bret Hart and the other 2025 WWE Hall of Fame inductees, sans Lex Luger. Austin and Hart were inducted for their WrestleMania 13 match as the inaugural “Immortal Moment” Hall of Fame selection.
