Steve Austin's love of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was a joke, but it's still real to me dammit

Steve Austin "playing" The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

I'm so sorry to have to tell you this, but like so many things in wrestling, 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin's love of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was, if not fake, then scripted.

During an interview with Fox Sports analyst Ryan Satin (via TheGamer), Austin was asked about whether his professed love for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was real. "Zelda," Austin said with a laugh. "That was like a rib. An inside rib. My producer says 'hey, say this.' And it stoked so much stuff on social media, so it's like an inside rib."
