4) The Golden Boy’s Mugshot
Vince McMahon was not too pleased to see a picture of his golden boy behind bars. On June 15th, 2002, things got heated between Austin and his ex-wife, Debra. Debra was found bruised and hysterical by the police, while Austin had already fled the scene. On August 14th, Austin was arrested and charged with domestic abuse. Steve plead no contest and was given 80 hours of community service, along with probation. Debra finally spoke out about the whole situation years later. She claimed that it was an act of “roid rage”, telling Fox News that Steve had hit her three times and claimed the WWE put a “gag order” on her so she would not reveal the truth. The WWE did not respond to her allegations.
