Vince McMahon is the smartest person I've ever worked with

He's the smartest guy I've ever worked with. And I always tell everybody I've learned more working with Vince McMahon than I have anywhere in my life, including, you know, damn near five years of college.

Austin consistently maintains this stance in every interview, reflecting his subjective professional experience.

Nick Saban is the greatest coach to ever coach anything in any sport

Can we say in any sport, Nick Saban is the best coach to ever coach anything?

While subjective, Saban's 7 national titles (at the time) and dominance in the hardest era of CFB make this a valid, though debatable, stance.

Nick Saban can truthfully guarantee every recruit a national title if they come to Alabama

If Nick Saban walked into your living room at any point in the last 14 years, he could say to you and your family, you will win a national title if you come to Alabama, and it is true. You can look at it, 09, 11, 12, 15, 17, 20... You are guaranteed to win a national title.

Historically accurate for Saban's Alabama tenure up to 2021.

Nick Saban would eventually win a national title for West Virginia if he finished his career there

I think I would love to see Nick Saban at some point go finish his career at West Virginia. Just like maybe once he turns 75, get the end of the run for Saban, have him bring a couple titles to the Mountaineers.

Saban eventually retired from Alabama following the 2023 season and did not move to another program.

I will never wrestle another match in my life

I'll never wrestle another match in my life... I'll say it. I'm done. Never's a long time [but] no, it ain't worth it... I got the wrestling bug out of my system.

Incredibly incorrect. Stone Cold Steve Austin returned to the ring for a full-blown match against Kevin Owens in the main event of WrestleMania 38 on April 2, 2022.

My dream hypothetical match would be against Bruiser Brody

Bruiser Brody would be really high on my list. It'd obviously be in prime Stone Cold brawling years... because that's the only way a Stone Cold could have matched up with the power, force, size, and strength and wild man tactics of a Bruiser Brody.

This is a subjective preference for a hypothetical scenario.

Today's wrestling has lost the spontaneity and sense of urgency of the Attitude Era

To me, it's just maybe, I'm not picking on today's product, but I just think the spontaneity is lost. Like that feeling that anything could happen is lost. And if you bring it back and create that excitement, I don't think you need to go to filling up this with that or crushing things. Sense of urgency I think is the most important part.

Subjective critique of an entertainment product.
