Steve Austin’s Message to the WWE Locker Room

From Wade Keller:

“(An) interesting atmosphere backstage,” Austin said. “High degree of professionalism, but afraid to speak up and piss someone off. Hopefully these cats will start taking chances – or taking chances within reason… Now, it’s true that the Powers that Be do not believe in certain people. It’s up to the talent to make management believe in them. There is a pretty thin roster of talent in that locker room. There’s a lot of guys and gals. But, when talking about the cream of the crop, you’re talking about the best… The doors are wide open.”
