Stone Cold Steve Austin hasn't wrestled in the WWE since 2003, but his popularity remains strong.

The iconic superstar will appear on the cover of the company's video game, "WWE 2K16," which will be released Oct. 27.

Even though the WWE has transitioned from Austin's Attitude Era to the PG Era, it's just not the same when you see the Texas Rattlesnake with his middle fingers down.  Yet Austin was thrilled about being on the cover.

"I thought it was probably one of the coolest things I've done," Austin said. "Any time Stone Cold does something, it brings a little attitude and swagger. And that's the bottom line, because I said so."
