Stone Cold Steve Austin has always lived up to the expectations of his fans. From impressive promos to spell bounding matches, Austin has entertained the fans in every way. But he had hurt his parents once before he entered this professional wrestling business.

During an episode of Gettin’ Better with Ron Funches, the Texas Rattlesnake opened up about hurting his parents by dropping out of college. The WWE legend mentioned the reason behind his failure to complete graduation.

Steve Austin said, “I was working on a freight dock. My scholarship had run out, and I dropped out of college with 17 hours to graduate. I said, ‘Man, listen, research paper is just killing me. I want to do no more of them’. So, I just quit. And it hurt my parents because I would have been the only kid to graduate from college.”
