WWE Hall of Famer, Steve Austin, holds multiple Royal Rumble records, including the most wins in the marquee match of the event. Apart from his Rumble records, Austin’s profound knowledge about the wrestling industry makes him one of the most valuable people in professional wrestling.

Recently, Austin appeared on the latest episode of WWE’s The Bump. Host Kayla Braxton asked him his opinions on the winners of the Royal Rumble 2021.

Austin first gave his opinion on the ‘EST’, who has seen a meteoric rise in her career since last year. WWE even broadcasted a Chronicle episode focusing on her journey, and Austin watched that.

To hear her backstory and where she came from, and where she came from, and the struggles that she overcame, and how goal-oriented… she is… And the EST thing about being the greatest, being the fastest, being the strongest… I mean that to be such at such a young age and to think of something that; that’s an incredible marketing ploy right there.

Austin thinks that Bianca Belair is one of the smartest persons in the company.

“She has a great look, tons of athletic ability and so much charisma,” Austin said. “Bianca Belair is going to be around for a long time. She is going to reach very, very high levels.”
