Austin 3:16 and rise to superstardom (1996−1997)



Austin in 1996.


Austin's genuine rise to superstardom began on June 23, 1996 in Milwaukee, where the 1996 King of the Ring pay-per-view took place. Austin began using his trademark finishing maneuver, the Stone Cold Stunner, and with this new technique he won the King of the Ring tournament,[5] receiving the push originally intended for Triple H. After toppling Marc Mero in the semi-finals, Austin defeated Jake "The Snake" Roberts in the final.[5][23] At the time, Roberts was portraying a born-again Christian, so after the match, Austin cut a promo during his coronation, telling Roberts:[24]
“ You sit there and you thump your Bible, and you say your prayers, and it didn't get you anywhere! Talk about your Psalms, talk about John 3:16... Austin 3:16 says I just whipped your ass! ” "Austin 3:16" ultimately became one of the most popular catch phrases in wrestling history
