GUEST: Kevin Zane DISCUSSED: Steve Austin in ECW The Renegades are back and they have a guest with them. Zach and Paul are joined by good friend, wrestling historian, and podcasting powerhouse, Kevin Zane. Kevin got to pick the topic this week and he brought one of the more interesting choices in the history of Wrestling Renegades. It's various segments from ECW Hardcore TV in 1995 (time codes included below). These segments provide the blueprint for what would become the biggest star in the Attitude Era (if not wrestling overall), 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin. But here, he's simply Steve Austin. See the man go through the transformation from angry over being fired via telephone to one of the best promo guys in the business. This is "The Genesis of Stone Cold Steve Austin".
