WWE Universe is still celebrating the Austin 316 day dedicated to the iconic Stone Cold Steve Austin. 3:16 Day is a day when WWE celebrates perhaps the greatest superstar’s career in the company. The date falls on March 16 as this date (3/16) matches the Hall of Famer’s iconic speech following his King of the Ring winning promo. Last year, WWE threw a celebration on Raw on this occasion while, this year, they are celebrating it, virtually.
WWE Hall of Famers Steve Austin and Triple H took to Twitter a few hours ago to remember their first-ever pay-per-view singles match against each other on the occasion of Austin 316 day. Triple H re-tweeted WWE’s video from the In Your House 11: Buried Alive pay-per-view on October 20, 1996, in Indianapolis, Indiana. The opening contest of that night saw Austin defeat Triple H in a match that went just over a quarter of an hour.
