Measured 6-1.5 in lifts maybe.

6-0 peak and 5-11 today
rawdshaq said on 26/Jan/19
Guys lol Stone Cold said he was measured at 6'1 1/2", I don't think he is lying
Canson said on 16/Jan/19
@Brad: I think he was telling the truth with the 6’1” claim. He was easily that at his peak. Today may be 6’0” range
Bradley said on 14/Jan/19
Never over 6 foot. Another height liar. 6-2 is laughable.
FrankR1 said on 13/Jan/19
Steve Austin was probably never taller than 6’1.25”, and he might be 5’11.75” today.
Truth123 said on 8/Jan/19
I’d give him 6’0.5” and then he rounds up to 6’1”
He’s probably fluctuates between 245-265lbs
Truth123 said on 8/Jan/19
He looks 6’2” on his broken skull ranch show. Or maybe he’s just with average height people of 5’9”.

I don’t think he’s ever dipped below 6’0”.
rawdshaq said on 28/Dec/18
He said on his podcast with Big Show that he is 6' 1"
rawdshaq said on 23/Dec/18
Stone Cold is pretty honest yeah 6' 1" 1/2 seems right, maybe 6'2" when he was younger
michael loughrie said on 23/Nov/18
Tbh, probably like 5' 11"
Canson said on 22/Nov/18
@Christian: very possible
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 11/Nov/18
@Canson

That may be his max peak height. Today he doesn't look more than 184.
Salman gull said on 8/Nov/18
Rob i think he is 6 foot.
If goldberg is 6'2 then he is 6'
Goldberg towered him easily 2 inches, at RAW.
You should degrade him 1 inch.
RR said on 4/Nov/18
Stone Cold's height should read 6ft ¾ in (184.8 cm)

if hes 6'1.25 then arnold was 6'2.5 in 1999

Zampo said on 28/Sep/18
I think a solid 6'1 in his prime. Not sure if quite 6'1.25 (possibly at lunchtime) but don't think he dipped below 6'1.

@Tree: If we are going to compare him during different points in his career, maybe at about post 2001 when he came back after a year plus to sort out his long-standing neck injury, sustained in the late 90s. Not sure if he lost any noticeable height during that period.
tree said on 25/Sep/18
Its hard to tell from that clip with Sting the exact difference but Austin never looked any taller than 186.0 in his entire wrestling career.
I don't see any point in trying to find things from the early 90's,he became a huge star in 96,he was only 31 to young to loose height.
In 96 he looked 6ft1 with Bret Hart Click Here
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/Sep/18
No he looks maybe at most 1in but Sting most likely cleared 6ft2 in the 90’s (Rob even argues 6ft2½). With that I give a young Austin

Out of bed: 6ft2⅛(188.3cm)
Before bed: 6ft1⅜(186.4cm)

Watch old matches of him opposite William Regal. Similar situation
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 1/Sep/18
@Rampage

You can tell that Sting was noticeably a lot taller.

Looks pretty close to Sting (arguably a strong 6ft2) here. This is early 90's (Note that Austin has hair)
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 6/Aug/18
@Spencer

That's the very most I can see him next to John Cena. I think Austin was a bit taller than that at peak but lost a bit of height. Maybe 6'0.75" peak.
Bazza said on 22/Jul/18
Just watched stone cold documentary and i have to say he looks 6' foot flat.
tree said on 19/Jul/18
Rob you think Austin knows about height fluctuating from morning to evening?
That would explain why he thinks he was 6ft2,then 6ft1 and how he got a 6ft1.5 measurement,somebody should tell him lol
Editor Rob
Some measuring devices might also produce variation.

He might know about fluctuating - generally this is something I have noticed, at least half the folk I've measured have knew about being taller in the morning.
tree said on 24/Jun/18
Rob the 6ft1 listning was better Click Here Click Here Click Here and with 6ft Bret Hart Click Here
WrestleGod said on 21/Jun/18
Nah Steve Austin is not this height, that’s triple h’s height and he dwarfs Austin quite a bit. Even in 2003 when him and michaels were in a segment he looked about a inch or so taller. I would say this is his peak, but actuality 1.82 - 1.84 max. Shoes give him a bit of height so yea that’s my take.
tree said on 20/Jun/18
It was never fake, but was shot at a low angle adding a few cm's to his apparent height.
Even the police helps Stone Cold to appear taller
RR said on 5/Jun/18

Sounds fair. Sorry for the hassle amigo. Austin does feel like he looks no more than 183-184cm. It could be true that Brett Hart is somewhere around at least 180-182cm nowadays. Cheers.

I have posted my photos with wrestlers on here numerous times, a simple search will find them. Bret in the times I met him was roughly my height (180-181cm), Austin over 6 foot probably 184cm

Seeing ring-gear doesn't show us what's inside... Matt bloom e.g who played Albert/a-train looks alot shorter in person out of ring gear than on tv
RR said on 16/May/18
Have you taken any pictures alongside any one of them? That you can share and post for us? Other then some random pic you found online? Even with their "ring-gear on," as you indicated, one can still see the kind of footwear they're wearing. This isn't necessarily the case for that picture you've provided. How can that be an equal comparison?

Rob... How long is this travesty going to go on for?

I have met Austin and Bret out of gear a number of times since 2001 and Austin is noticeably taller. Now its possible Bret lost height by 2001 but this photo is probably closer to how they measure up sans ring gear Click Here

stone cold looks about half an inch taller than bret in that video considering steve is bald. still, not really 6ft1.5...
RR said on 8/May/18
Can't anyone see that Arnold is taller than Stone Cold? How would that make him 6'1.5?

Stone Cold and Bret Hart's look to be about the same height at 6ft 0 (182.9 cm)

Try watching one of their matches together and they look to be about the same height.

No way his peak was 187cm i would bet my life on that.

Peak: 186-187cm
Today: 185-186cm

6ft1½ early morning, 6ft1 for the remainder
miko said on 23/Apr/18
He seems to have held his height very well. 6'1.5 is too tall for him, unless fresh out of bed.

6'0.75/6'1 range. 5 foot 11 is utterly absurd and trolling.
Micky said on 22/Apr/18
Back at their peaks, I think The Rock was about 1.5" taller than Stone Cold. Today both have probably lost a fraction.

I'll go with:

Rock - 190 cm peak, 188 today
Stone Cold - 186 cm peak, 184 today
mikeyup said on 21/Apr/18
he might be 6ft...
santgr said on 21/Apr/18
During their meeting in 1999 on wwe episode they looked really close in height. Assuming Arnold had lost a small fraction of height but he was still 6ft I believe Austin was 6ft1 during his peak. What's your opinion Rob?
santgr said on 12/Apr/18
Rob how possible do you think is 6ft0.75 for his peak height?
Phillip said on 7/Apr/18
In the old wrestling pic with Jake and Austin, Jake's heels are at least double that of Austin's. In the recent picture, there is about a 3.5-4 inch difference in height. Austin could have shrunk a bit or Jake could have the footwear advantage which is likely. I met Jake last year and he was wearing snakeskin boots with at least a 2 inch heel and I've seen Austin wearing sneakers a lot these days.
Danimal said on 2/Apr/18
Rob, he's WAY overbilled on this site. Alex and myself have been saying for YEARS that he is MAX 6'0" (I personally believe he's about 5'11.5" at best).

Is Austin lying about his height measurement? I suppose he wouldn't be the first...
RR said on 27/Mar/18
If you're so smart, how do you know it's a doctor who "clocked in" Mr. Stone Cold Steve Austin's height? And not his own fantastic wishful thinking. Where did you come up with that one I'm wondering?

We all have the right to express OUR own opinions. Maybe it's something you can't yet comprehend? We gave our honest opinions and now you're upset? WOW. Come on man! Living in your own bubble is tough sometimes.

... If it's not complicated they don't seem to get it. Keep It Simple Stupid.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Mar/18
That 6ft1½ anecdote sounded like it was a doctors appointment. No reason for him to lie and what doctor would measure his clients in shoes?

I’m sick of these stupid trolls.
RR said on 20/Feb/18
Even in this clip, circa 1999, Arnold is still taller than Steve. Assuming Arnold was still 6’1.5” peak, he clearly edges out Steve by a considerable margin.

I supposed that was a peak Trump looking at this clip look over a decade ago. Peak Trump is closer to 6'2 and camera angle deceive him to look an inch taller with head tilting up a bit.
miko said on 24/Jan/18
Austin was 1.5' taller than Vince McMahon on RAW25 and was taller than Shane too.

Vince is likely 5'11.5 range these days and Shane 6'0.75/6'1 range.

Canson said on 16/Dec/17
@Rampage: Christian puts in work. he looks objectively and uses height charts and puts attention to detail. he’s like me in that he will assess lower than Rob has them listed but because most are a bit higher than they should be esp if rob doesn’t meet them in person even some he has met are still high but to be fair from a 5’8 vantage point assessing someone some 8-10” taller isn’t easy. Tyler mane is an example had him 6’8 after he met him then Ali Baba pics and mane claiming 6’7 were what made the decision to bring him down to 6’7”. Danimal while I respect him He is inconsistent. Robbins claimed 6’4 1/2 and is shorter than stern even today as well as Barkley being physically measured 6’4 5/8. I know two people who’ve met Barkley and both say he’s 6’4-6’5 one is 6’3 the other 6’2 and was a NBA Scout (my former AAU coach as a matter of fact). Yet he swears Barkley and stern downplay their heights. I do agree with Danimal tho on many of his other assessments such as Will Smith 6’1 and Rock being 6’2 today as the same 6’3” friend that met Barkley has stood next to The Rock and said he’s an inch shorter than he is.

I don’t think stone cold was ever 6’2”. Everything i see makes him 6’1 range peak max should be the 6’1.25 peak could be 0.5” less today
Ken_6ft7(shoes) said on 7/Nov/17
Dang I always thought this guy was atleast 6ft 3
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 6/Nov/17
Christian you habitually shave at least half an inch off everyone without providing a shred of evidence. Danimal however goes to both extremes. He thinks Tim Robbins is 6ft7 and that Scott Bakula was 6ft2. I could go on.....they're blanket statements. You think Austin was 6ft1, that's fine. I on the other hand look at his claims then look at how he fairs with other guys then and now...to me he looks 6ft1 now and in the 90's was a bit taller.
Editor Rob
surely that 2 was a slip up, Bakula has only ever claimed to be 6 foot.
miko said on 29/Oct/17
Steve is a tough one at times. I think its fair to say he's around the 6'1 mark standing tall, not sure he's over it though.

After he had neck issues he had the tendancy of standing badly with his neck tilted which didn't help him height wise but when he did stand up tall he was clearly well over 6 foot, and held his own with most of the 6'2 WWE guys. Even in his staredown with 6'0 Bret Hart he was standing poorly and was still taller.
Canson said on 29/Oct/17
@Christian: this one is tough. I’m stuck myself. Maybe a peak height was 6’1 or near it or he could’ve been claiming shoes to say 6’1.5 and rounded up to 6’2 from that.

@Rampage

Well, you can't talk either Rampage. You think that Austin was possibly 6'2", and that's just as erroneous as Danimal's 6'0" estimate. Austin was never over 6'1", just look at him with 6'2.75" Rock and 6'1.75" Triple H during the 90's/early 00's (the two guys who you like to inflate to 6'3.5" and 6'2.5")

He's never been over a flat 6'0".
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Sep/17
Could he have been 6ft2?



Looking at stuff from the 90's he does give a 187-188cm vibe at times. Holds up well with 6ft3-4 guys in the ring. I certainly would not hesitate to give him 6ft1½ peak (6ft2 early morning). Today he still looks around 6ft1 and injuries-wise he's among the worst.

His peak height was 6'2" and his present height is 6'1.25".

@Anon2

You think Austin's similar in height to Cena, yet at the same time you think Triple H's 6'2", lol. If you say Austin's about 6'0.5", then you must also admit that Triple H's 6'1.25" today, as he was only 0.75" taller than him in 2011. Click Here

Christian-6'5 3/8" said on 2/Sep/17
@HeightcrazyRed6ft

I know, people exaggerate the amount of height loss that wrestlers experience when they have surgeries, as an excuse so they can make them as tall as they want them to be. Austin was never anywhere near 6'2". He was always no more than a flat 6'1" and today perhaps 6'0.75", or even 6'0.5" like RR said.
Christian-6'5 3/8 said on 1/Sep/17
@jay

Adam Carolla is nowhere near 6'2". Michael Rapport is the one that's legit 6'2" maybe 6'2.25" and he was way taller than him. Click Here
Anon2 said on 1/Sep/17
I feel like 186cm barefoot is too much for Austin. I can buy a flat 6'1'' at most. I wouldn't be surprised if he measured 184cm either in the afternoon.
@HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 1/Sep/17
Austin talked about his neckfusion, that they used his own bonematerial and how it gets the space between the cervicals back...
How can that cause heightloss, noway!
It makes him struggle to turn his head, but in fact it makes him even taller than before and avoids heightloss over the day from disc-shrinking.
jay said on 1/Sep/17
to all those saying austin isnt 6'2 check out the picture of him standing next to adam carolla who is 6'2 i have a friend who saw austin at civic center just before he went away for his surgery . my friend is 5'11 he was in the front row and austin walked by him he said back then the guy was around 6'2/3ish i could believe after his surgery her got wacked down 6'1 but dude is 6'2 just remember when you saw him on t.v next to mcmahon they use angles mcmahon is 6'1 not 6'2 also mick foley is 6'2 and they're eye to eye in alot of shots together
Vegas said on 24/Aug/17

Danimal said on 16/Aug/17
Steve was barely 6'0" barefoot. He began wearing big boots when he hopped over to the WWF in 1996. This is what he used to look like next to 6'2"-6'3" Rick Rude in WCW:
-------------------------

Rudes a couple of inches taller Vince McMahon 20 years ago (who you claim was legit 6'2) and Vince has footwear advantage given he is wearing combat boot type footwear...this video outs rude at 6'4 minimum based on your estimation of vince Click Here

I met Austin a number of times over the last 15 years (last time a decade ago) but he was solid 6 foot then in normal sneakers

@smoosh
Austin is not shorter than the (women or men) on his tv show from what I've watched. All those people who claim they are 6'0" and 6'1" and 6'2" are more like 5'10" - 5'11".
I'm 6'1.75" barefoot, and when I size up to people who claim they are 6'1" and 6'2", I end up being 3-4 inches taller than them. Get the heights right!

I think a bit over 6ft3 for Rude is likely and could pull off 6ft4 at times. Had a great build and great posture. Apparently, not a guy you'd want to cross...
Edge said on 20/May/17
The Rock never looked more than 2 inches taller and he was 6'3 and HHH never looked more than 1 inch taller and he was maybe 6'2 if he's lucky. Steve always looked around 6'1 with these guy's and others so he's probably around 6 feet even today.
6'1-6'1.5 Guy said on 19/May/17
For example, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson always looked 4 cm taller (but not more than 5 cm) and it gives me the idea that both were typical 6'1 and 6'3 guys at their peak.
And since now they are both slightly lost in growth, then 189-190 cm (6'2.5-6'2.75) for The Rock and 184-185 cm (6'0.5-6'0.75) for Stone Cold is most likely.
Eagles said on 18/May/17
@Death
First off that's a bad name to choose to go by for a height debate. Secondly Steve Austin ain't 5'11". I'm sorry you're 5'11" but Steve Austin is over 6'0". Also, your statement that most athletes are not shorter people is ridiculous.

Rude definitely looked 6'4" next to Steve Austin. He was without question at least 3.5" taller. Honestly, I think Austin was more like 6'0.5" and looked taller in his boots that he'd wear in WWE when he was not in his tights. But, Rude claimed 6'4" and he looked almost 4" taller than Austin. Also, Austin didn't look much taller than 5'11" Brother Love or 5'9" Ricky Steamboat. I think Austin's height should be lowered to 6'0.5". There is just no way in the world he was 6'1.25" next to 6'3"-6'4" Rick Rude. That's not even up for debate.

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/May/17
We don't know what the ground level is like in that clip and Austin is leaning a bit. In other photos/clips the difference isn't as big. Rude was billed 6ft3-4 and usually looked it with other 6ft1-2 guys. I think Rude at 192cm and Austin at 186cm is still reasonable.



Rob, what do you think?
Editor Rob
a good 6ft 3 is still possible there.

Peak: 6'1"
Now: 6'0.5"
Sam said on 23/Mar/17
His 6'1 claim is fine for a peak height but I don't think he was ever taller than that. Struggling to look 6'1 with Hogan, so yeah, probably lost a fraction and can at times appear nearer 6'0 in some cases. Its possible Austin went with both heights if he measured 6'2 morning and 6'1 night, hence his 6'1.5 claim.

255lbs
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 20/Feb/17
250lbs in his hey day. Today he's 270lbs range....
Jackie Knife said on 18/Feb/17
272 lbs is pretty believable for Steve circa 2003-2004. He was MASSIVE back then. A lot of people simply don't understand that muscles plus fat weigh much more than they can imagine. As a co-general manager of Raw, Steve (being out of shape) could easily hit 270 pound mark. To me he looked even heavier than Goldberg during their "friendship" angle
Danimal said on 17/Feb/17
6'1.5" in shoes. No way is he that height barefoot. No way. 6'0" barefoot MAX.
Here he is in NORMAL dress shoes (not his usual clunky boots) next to a PRE-shrunken Vince McMahon in 1998:

Vince still taller than him when Stone Cold was in his clunky boots:

Realist said on 16/Feb/17
6'1 and 250 is right
Death said on 16/Feb/17
haha 272lbs?!?
Go look at guys that are 250 and have low body fat, they are monsters at 250 and right around the 6' mark.
He's got a good build but he's also got a good 30lbs of fat on him it shows in his stomach but with a lot of muscle, it just isn't obvious. I'd bet his weight at around 230-240lbs.
Hunter McIntyre is listed as 6'2 and in shots you can see he's obvious several inches taller than Steve. Hunter is definitely hitting 6'2 there's no doubt in my mind.
Steve Austin is probably dead on 5'11 same as myself and just like myself, has had spinal injuries. I used to be just a quarter inch shy of 6'1 before wrecking my back. Nearly 20 years later I measured myself a few months ago and was dead on 5'11

Wrestlers are notoriously shorter in person and generally speaking, athletes tend to be shorter guys so he's often around people several inches shorter than him and is still just a very big guy. People will always assume I'm 6'1 and I'm just not but, people like to add 2" to their own true height so there ya go.
Eagles said on 13/Feb/17
"Straightahead" says Goldberg is 235lbs today. If that's true, then Lesnar is only 255lbs... let's stop down grading these pro athletes size. You see them from a distance in a ring/cage on tv. You may be their height or taller, but you ain't larger nor stronger.
berta said on 13/Feb/17
that photo with hogan is great for height comparison. it looks like barely 7 cm to me. just that photo alone is evidence that he need a peak height. cant be 186 today in tat case hogan is about 193. i think barely 185 today is good. lost half inch. as a wrestler at his age. that is pretty good actually
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Feb/17
Maybe was 6ft2 early morning peak.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 6/Feb/17
Rob, how likely is 6ft1½ peak and 6ft1 flat today?




I reckon it's possible considering he's had his share of ijuries
Editor Rob
I think it is likely at least peak he could clear 6ft 1, maybe he was rounding up when measured near 6ft 1.5...
Wrs567 said on 5/Feb/17
Flat 6'1'' is the best, just look at him next to Miz and Hulk

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 2/Feb/17

Ice said on 2/Feb/17
Always looked too tall for a flat 6'1 IMO

that photot with 184 the miz was strange he actually onlt looks 184 in it. cant really been measured 187 these days? maybe in the morning , hm. peak although i think 186 is right. i think he need peak height of 186 and 185 today?
Wrs567 said on 25/Jan/17
He is just a tad taller than The Miz, if Miz shaved his head

Click Here

6'1'' flat is the best for Austin

Also, in the mugshot picture the camera is underneath Austin making him appear 6'3''

In reality he isn't even 6'3'' in that picture

If the picture was taken from a fair angle, he would be about 6'2'' at best. I'm sure he was also in boots
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 20/Jan/17
If he's around 6ft3 in the mugshot then he can't be less than 6ft1
Mike said on 15/Jan/17
I saw Austin on Hermosa beach about 12 years ago. I'm 6 foot 1 inch 250 and Austin made me look small. He is a bull.

Austin looks like he is in shoes or boots in the mug shot which makes him 190cm or about 6'3"

Austin: 186-187cm
Goldberg: 189-190cm

Goldberg was the 6'2" 266lbs. skinhead, Austin was the 6'1.5" 252lbs. skinhead when they beer bashed. They weren't exceptionally tall but they were exceptionally large. They represented the wwe.

Currently Goldbergs about 6'1.5" 262lbs, and Austins about 6'1" 258lbs
O.J. said on 7/Jan/17
Met him in person 5.5 years ago and he was easily 6'1. If Austin is under 6 feet today, I'd be shocked.
TK 723 said on 4/Jan/17

Austin is actually not out of shape I think.

I don't think he has gained more weight at all. If you watch his Video Podcasts, he still looks great for his age.

I'd guess him at around 254 lbs.
Derek said on 17/Dec/16
1)McMahon was 6'2" and Austin was clearly shorter. He also was slightly taller than Shawn Michaels.

2)He was BILLED at 252 lbs at his peak in 1997-1998. Legit he was probably 235-240.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 16/Dec/16
He's gotta be minimum 260-265lbs
MDV said on 16/Dec/16
272 lbs is very heavy. I' don't know if he is really that big.
I mean today he is the same height as Cena (he lost 0.5 inc) and 22 lbs bigger? He has a big belly but he lost tons of muscles in chest and arms. While Cena has the biggest arm and forearm that you can ever imagine and a big chest. If today Austin is 272 lbs is because he gained fats in his belly.
Peak was between 6 ft 1 and 6 ft 1.25 and 240 pounds
Today is between 6 ft 0.5 and 6 ft 0.75 and 260 pounds for me
Editor Rob
his claim is believable...but I think it could be in boots/clothes/wallet
Wrs567 said on 16/Dec/16
He is not taller than Cena and the Miz! back on tough enough in 2011 Cena and Austin were the same height, Austin also had shoe advantage

And with the Miz on Raw he looked the same height, maybe he was a tad taller. That would still put him at 6'1'' flat
Smoosh said on 14/Dec/16
272lbs? What the hell? Hes probably not even 230lbs, what Steve Austin are you lookimg at? Hahahahah
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Dec/16
Rob, is 272lbs closer today?




He looks noticeably heavier than 20 years ago…
Editor Rob
yes Rampge, near 270 range...he's got a more more weight than 10 years back.
Smoosh said on 12/Dec/16
Just an observation. On his broken skull ranch show, they show the competitors heights and everytime one of them is listed as 6'1 they are always taller than him, everytime, this includes the women.
Linke said on 10/Dec/16

this guy seems like a guy that dont really lie about his size. acould have been measured 187 early on the day.
Attitude said on 14/Nov/16
About 6 feet tall beside Mike Tyson. However, Austin does stand shorter near shorter people. So it is hard to say for sure. Always looked a tad shorter than McMahon. He was also shorter than Mick Foley. 2-3 inches shorter than HHH and The Rock
sa344 said on 12/Nov/16
As tall as 6'1.25''?

He was looking the same height as John Cena and The Miz not too long ago

He also called Kurt Angle like 6'0'' on his podcast lol

The 6'1.5'' measurement was probably in shoes or something

I can't see him over 6'1'', maybe peak 6'1.25''
Bill said on 10/Nov/16
Prime 6'1.5

2,75" shorter than Hogan here. Austin´s peak height was about
6-1,25 - 6-1,5. 6-0,25 - 6-0,5 is more realistic for Austin now.
Christian-196.2cm (6ft5.25) said on 26/Oct/16
Still pulls off a solid 6ft1 today. If 6ft3 Rock was billed as 6ft5 and 6ft2 HHH at 6ft4, it would only make sense that Austin should have been billed at 6ft3, not 6ft2.
Brandon said on 19/Oct/16
Maybe 6'1.25"-6'1.5" peak
And 6'0.5"-6'1" now

Had a chat with his ex wife Jeanie Clark she said said Steve was 6'2 and she is 5 foot. She also has a book out about her life in the wrestling world and with Steve looks to be very interesting and gives a different look at Steve Austin.
josh jeffords said on 8/Oct/16
Hes a big guy unless hes standing next to Dolph..
Id guess he is telling the truth about loosing .5 bodybuilding is rough on the body.
Also lots of WWE stuff which he never looked small with big guys and looked big with normal people.
On the other hand he does often wear boots thats why he occasionally looks 6 2 and change.
Michael said on 30/Sep/16
6-0,25 now.

MIncer said on 24/Sep/16
Rob do you think he was ever 6'2?

not as convinced with that one, I think if he measured over 6ft 2 it would have been a sneaker measurement.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 17/Sep/16
He could pass for 6ft2 in the early 90's. Looking similar to Sting in this match from I'm guessing no later than 1993 (Austin had hair)

The Man said on 28/Jul/16
260lbs is a joke. He looks slimmer now than he was in his prime. I would say max 240lbs. He is nowhere near Rock's weight, as he is shorter and has less muscle tone.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 28/Jul/16
By the sounds of it, he got measured by a doctor. So his claim is valid but is more than likely taken at an earlier time. Question is whether or not he could have been that mark for real in his 20's?
RP said on 27/Jul/16
IMO...he got measured & weighed with shows on & fully clothed. So, if that's the case ? 6'1-1/2" & 272 lbs would make him barefoot 6'0-3/8" to 6'0-1/2" & stripped down to his underwear (true bodyweight) 265-267 lbs.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 13/Jul/16
I think he could be up to 270-275lbs today and was his billed 252lbs for real back in the day. Probably one of the guys closest to his billed stats give or take a couple of centimetres and a few pounds.

jtown said on 3/Jun/16
He is not, I repeat, not 272 or even close. If he's truly 6'1.5 id give him 210 220 at most.

********************************************************************************



No chance,
I´m 183 flat evening and currently 223lbs, I´m not even close to Austin at WM32. Austin would be 250lbs without his big belly, 272 sounds legit.

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 15/May/16
Out of bed: 187-188cm
Before bed: 185-186cm

6ft1½ at 10:00a.m. is likely. Remember in centimetres it's 186.69cm so he'd already be down from his out of bed height

Editor Rob: the 186 mark for him might be reasonable.


Agreed
Austin never looked only 6ft flat, he still looks taller than 6´0.5" John Cena.
Johan said on 1/Jul/16
Hmm an upgrade. I thought he was 6ft 1 peak and down to 6ft 0.5 nowadays. He is right that he has shrunk a bit but Im not buying he was ever 6ft 2.

Probably got measured in shoes imo.

I'm not as familiar with his personality as others who followed wrestling or his radio show, but he seemed genuine that he got the 6ft 1.5 , if it was barefoot I'd be a bit more surprised, but not outrageously so.

Rob, that quote hasn't appeared.

Click Here - stacking up very well beside Goldberg and The Rock. Around 6ft1-2 in this picture.
Click Here - Again, looking very close to Goldberg.

Austin does not look under 6ft1 and I think he may very well have gotten measured at 6ft1½ at 10-11am. Perhaps he was that for real in his 20's-30's and was 6ft2 in the morning? With that neck injury...a bit of height loss is believable.

Austin is 50 years old today. Guaranteed he lost a bit of height. Age plus his surgeries. I think he was a solid 6'0.5 guy in his younger days but nowadays not over 6'0
Height183 said on 17/Aug/15

I can't imagine Stone Cold being taller than me today. If anything, I would be a few mm taller than him.

At his absolute peak he probably would've been a decent 184cm.
