Police were called to the home of WWE superstar Steve Williams, better known to most as "Stone Cold" Steve Austin from World Wrestling Entertainment last night.
Apparently Austin had attacked his wife Debra, but was not at the house when police arrived at approximately 4:00am.
Debra had a welt under her eye and bruises on her shoulder and back. She said things like this has happened before, but she was reluctant to call police due to Austin's celebrity status.
**Update on Austin Fired Situation**
From WWE CONFIDENTIAL:
Vince McMahon said the door is not open for Steve Austin to return because he has a responsibility to uphold for WWE share holders, fans, and him looking in the mirror at himself. He said it would be completely unacceptable for someone to walk out on WWE twice in 4 months and then be welcomed back with open arms whenever he decides to grace them with his presence.
Jim Ross compared Steve Austin walking out on WWE to John Wayne being a coward in a big fight - he never saw it coming. He said Austin went through a broken neck (which he said with some vulgarity), a terrible divorce, and loads of personal and professional problems while in WWE and for him to walk out on WWE and go home when they hit a bump in the road is just cowardly.
Overall, the interviews basically explained everything already known to those who follow news on the internet, but did confirm that this is not a work and that Steve Austin won't be coming back to World Wrestling Entertainment anytime soon - if ever.
