Although Stone Cold Steve Austin is no longer competing, he still tunes into WWE programming when he can and never shies away from sharing his opinion.

Often, it's praise for those that are doing fantastic work, and Braun Strowman is one who looks to have impressed The Texas Rattlesnake this year.

OPINION

However, the WWE Hall of Famer also provides constructive criticism where he feels certain WWE stars can improve, and even questions some of the decisions from WWE as not everything they do is perfect.

When Austin gives you praise, though, it must be a good feeling and he's now revealed which four current WWE stars he enjoys watching the most.

In an interview with Ring Rust Radio, Stone Cold was asked how much WWE content he needs to watch for his podcast. He revealed that with the company now putting out countless hours per week, it makes it difficult for him to consume it all.

He said: "It's hard to watch because three hours of RAW every Monday and then two hours of SmackDown, but because I am still involved with the business, I try to watch as much as I can."

FAVOURITES

While there's been plenty of criticism directed towards WWE for keeping RAW at three hours, the endless content hasn't put Austin off completely as he revealed that Brock Lesnar, AJ Styles, Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura are the four he enjoys watching the most.

He added: "Brock Lesnar is an absolute beast. I enjoy watching him and seeing what AJ Styles is up to next. Waiting to see if Finn Balor will continue to find his way.

"Waiting to see what they will end up doing with Shinsuke Nakamura and give him a green light push with that great background he brings from New Japan Pro-Wrestling."

Nobody can really argue with who Austin has selected. Even though The Beast Incarnate is a part-time star, he's still a big draw while AJ Styles is arguably the best on the planet right now who consistently puts on the greatest matches.

Balor and The King of Strong Style have endured a tough couple of months based on recent booking, but they're simply too good to be wasted with an important few months ahead.
