Retired professional wrestler Steve Austin, better known by the ring name Stone Cold Steve Austin, returns here once again to answer another fan question in another classic shoot interview. This time, Austin shoots on who he would choose between Michael Jordan or LeBron James, via News Brig:

“Michael Jordan came up and well it’s still my era but I grew up on Michael Jordan and I’ll never forget we were at Cleveland Gund Arena when LeBron had just gotten drafted and he was a rookie and he was sitting on the front row in the crowd while we there at the Gund Arena.”

He added, “Of course he ascended right to the top just like everybody thought he would. I think he’s one of those once-in-a-lifetime performers. Same with Michael Jordan. Because I was such a kid back in the day when Jordan was around, I looked up to him.

“I was a younger guy back then. I appreciate what LeBron’s doing and bringing to the game, he’s unbelievable. But for me, just because Jordan has that mystique, I just got to go Michael Jordan just off the mystique. Both guys are phenomenal,” Austin said.

Los Angeles Lakers star and reigning NBA Finals MVP LeBron James is coming off of his fourth title and at age 35 last season, averaged 25.3 points, a league-high 10.2 assists, 7.8 rebounds, and 1.2 steals while shooting at 49.3 percent from the field.
