Logan Paul 'bothered' Stone Cold Steve Austin by revealing WWE legend turned down $1m WrestleMania offer
- Paul and Austin were both at WrestleMania for different roles in Vegas this year
- The former explained that he offered the icon the fee to dress as a Prime bottle
- Austin revealed he rejected the offer and frustrations about it being made public
Stone Cold Steve Austin has revealed he was legitimately annoyed by Logan Paul revealing his $1million offer to dress up as a Prime bottle at WrestleMania.
WWE is still on the back of its biggest show of the year, following a two-night event in Las Vegas last week that saw John Cena break the record for the most world championships of all time.
Austin appeared at the show, but for only two reasons - one being to acknowledge his Hall of Fame induction for his match with Bret Hart for their match at WrestleMania 13 - the first match to be inducted.
The second was to announce the attendance for the second night of the event, which saw him crash his ATV into a barrier on the way out.
But he could have been involved in a different way. Logan Paul recently revealed he had offered the star a seven-figure sum to dress as a Prime bottle, but Austin turned it down.
Speaking to Ariel Helwani, Austin confirmed the news, but suggested he thought it was personal business rather than something that was going to be public knowledge.

He continued: 'So since it's out there, yeah, I turned it down. I'm in the beer business. I sell Broken Skull Beer. And you know, we're in about 25 or 30 states.
'I don't know anything about his product. I don't know about the ingredients in it, if it's good, if it's bad, or whatever. So, you know, it just it wasn't my thing. So, you know, yeah, I turned it down just because I wasn't into it.'
'And that's no disrespect to him or his product. It's just not my gimmick, you know. Like I said, he's doing really well. Obviously he's hustling and he's going and getting it and more power to him. It just wasn't a great fit for Steve Austin.'
WWE usually have a giant Prime bottle next to the ring during events, while other stars have dressed in the Prime bottle before for Paul's matches - including KSI and iShowSpeed.
Paul faced AJ Styles at the event, coming out on top as he continues to impress officials in WWE.
He has also enjoyed matches against the likes of Randy Orton, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins since joining the company as a wrestler.
