Every athlete has their favorite teams or players from other fields. For example, Stone Cold Steve Austin is a renowned pro-wrestler, but he definitely has a favorite NFL team.

Now, there could be more than one team ‘The Texas Rattlesnake’ likes to follow. However, as he resides in Texas, there are two popular choices for him.

Stone Cold’s favorite NFL Team

The Lone Star State has two NFL teams, i.e. Houston Texans and Dallas Cowboys. Austin is a fan of the latter and even volunteered to quarterback for the team when Tony Romo was out.

Prior to becoming a pro-wrestler, Stone Cold wanted to become a pro-football player. He even played football at the University of North Texas in the 1980s. However, while he was a good player at the local and regional level, he couldn’t keep up with the players beyond that.

Stone Cold Steve Austin Supports West Ham United

Former player Kieron Dyer had invited Stone Cold to watch West Ham United’s game against Fulham. This was the first time he watched the game live and ended up loving what he saw!

“You will see me back at West Ham. I’ve got a new movie coming out next year so I will be back over. It’s been interesting for me to see how physical the game is up close.” (H/t Goal)
