The Rock finally gives a reason for overselling the Stone Cold Stunner

The Rock is notoriously one of the best to sell the Stone Cold Stunner, solely for how over the top he did it. Well, apparently there was a pretty good reason for it.

The Rock is one of the biggest names in WWE history, and had a ton of crazy moments throughout his career that will be remembered forever. One small thing that many won’t forget is how he used to oversell the Stone Cold Stunner whenever he battled with Stone Cold Steve Austin.

Fans always tend to bring up the great sells of the Stunner, whether it’s Shane McMahon, Shawn Michaels, Scott Hall or countless others. However, none top The Great One when they’re in the ring with Stone Cold.

Actor Hannibal Buress, who has done movies with The Rock in the past, brought up the overselling that The Stunner used to bring out of The Brahma Bull, and showed a compilation of just how crazy some of the sells got in the ring.

Well, The Rock definitely was listening to his Baywatch co-star, and finally gave a reason for why he used to do that in his matches with Stone Cold. Some thought it was to sell the legitimacy of the move, others thought it was just how The Rock was as a wrestler, but, of course, alcohol was the actual reason in the end.

After all this time, we finally have our reason, and it makes complete sense for beer to be the answer for it all. After all, we’re talking about Stone Cold Steve Austin here.
