“Stone Cold” Steve Austin is a smart businessman, but he knows when something isn’t the right fit. Logan Paul recently claimed that Austin turned down a $1 million offer to wear a PRIME bottle costume and now Austin has revealed why he turned down that offer in the first place.

While speaking to Ariel Helwani, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin was asked if it was true that Logan Paul offered him money to dress up in a PRIME bottle costume and that he turned it down.

The Texas Rattlesnake stated that if Logan Paul mentioned it, he wouldn’t say Paul was lying. He thought it was a private matter but now that it’s public, he admitted he turned it down. Austin explained that he sells Broken Skull beer and doesn’t know much about Logan Paul’s drink, so it didn’t interest him. He made it clear he didn’t mean any disrespect to Logan or PRIME, it just wasn’t for him.

Austin added that dressing up in a PRIME bottle wasn’t his style. While he admitted that Logan Paul is hustling well and working hard, the opportunity simply didn’t fit who Steve Austin is.

“Man, if he said that, I’m not gonna call him a liar. I just thought that was personal business, but since it’s out there—yeah, I turned it down. I’m in the beer business, I sell Broken Skull beer. I don’t know anything about his product, the ingredients, or whether it’s good or bad or whatever. It just wasn’t my thing. So, you know, I turned it down just because I wasn’t into it. No disrespect to him or his product.

No man, that’s not my gimmick. He’s doing really well—obviously he’s hustling, and more power to him—but it just wasn’t a great fit for Steve Austin.”

At the end of the day, Steve Austin wanted to protect his own brand and simply felt Logan Paul’s PRIME didn’t suit him at all and fans completely understand why he turned down the offer now.
