“Stone Cold” Steve Austin mistaken for Goldberg at Denny’s, hilarity ensues
Back in the day, it was easy for a casual viewer of the Monday Night Wars to mix up “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and Goldberg. After all, they’re both large, bald and bearded men. It would appear that, twenty years later, one Denny’s had yet to get the memo.
Just got mistaken for @Goldberg at Denny’s this morning. I’ve never been so insulted. #whosnext? pic.twitter.com/J00swcYHBd

Goldberg, who joined Austin in the WWE Hall of Fame this year, responded to this case of mistaken identity in kind, and a playful back-and-forth ensued between the former Universal and WWE Champions. The exchange ended with Goldberg offering to literally send waffles to the Broken Skull Ranch.
Hell....you should’ve thanked them for the compliment...😬 Plus I’m a #WaffleHouse kinda guy. https://t.co/0oc8BuyUWC

Hard to find a Waffle House in Cali. Thanks for the message. I am still traumatized by the whole incident.

It might not be the Austin vs. Goldberg dream match we’ve always wanted, but it’s delicious all the same.
