• Hey everyone, it's me Matt, your valued LOP newsboard administrator editor, with a recap of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin's appearance on Punk'd.
  
  I was all set to tape this episode, but I got the times screwed up and ended up taping the one where they got the guy from Napoleon Dynamite.
  
  Anyways, I ended up staying around for the season finale episode of Punk'd, where they first managed to get rap star Bizarre (bad spelling?) and Ashley Simpson (if that girl could get any more punked after the whole SNL situation). Finally, it was time for "The Texas Rattlesnake" to get his.
  
  The whole skit was based on Austin's manager (who was setting him up) saying he couldn't find his cell phone, and thought he left it in the car. The asshole boss (played by one of the Punk'd crew) questioned the valet (another Punk'd crew member) and then fired him, thinking that he stole the phone, all the while verbally abusing the poor guy.
  
  Austin was soo in character that I have to wonder if he is any different at all when he leaves the spotlight of the WWE and heads home. He called the parking lot boss an asshole and a stupid son of a bitch, but he was doing it in his in your face quiet "Stone Cold" way. Finally, a waitress (also a Punk'd crew member) found the phone and returned it, but the parking lot boss was still giving crap to the valet. Finally, as you can tell that Austin is getting a bit pissed, they let him in on the fact that he has just been Punk'd. Austin laughs and delivers a straight faced serious promo about he just got punked to end the show.
  
  Overall, not a bad segment, though I enjoyed the one where they blew up the Rock's trailer and got him ready to kick some ass before they let him in on the joke.
