Stone Cold Steve Austin: WWE legend makes big claim for Drew McIntyre & Sheamus

Stone Cold Steve Austin says two current SmackDown Superstars will one day join him in the Hall of Fame. 

The Rattlesnake was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2009 and is one the most iconic Superstars of all time, so when it comes to predicting who could one day stand alongside him as a Hall of Famer, you can bet he knows what he’s talking about.

The praise continued for the pair from the 57-year-old, who believes that both Drew and Sheamus will one day join him in the WWE Hall of Fame.

Two super great human beings, and two Hall of Famers, and all these Hall of Fames that I’ve been in, they’ll go in as well.
