Dot Net reader Manuel Aguayo sent the following report on Steve Austin's appearance on NBC's "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" television show on Friday.

Fallon introduced Austin and they had a pretty cool entrance for "Stone Cold" where two doors opened from the floor of the stairs where the audience sits. It had a fog machine and fire flames. Austin came out to a huge pop and the entire audience consisted of members of the U.S. Navy. The audience seemed very familiar with Austin, and Austin asked for "Hell Yeah" and they responded.

Fallon spoke about the great "Macho Man" Randy Savage, and they showed a picture of him. Austin replied that he defiantly left his mark on the business, and that Randy Savage always had the intensity in the ring, and how he and savage did cross. Steve remembered TV tapings back in the day in Orlando that he did with Randy Savage in a 3-5 min match that he lost, but he never really worked a long run and would've been fantastic to work with him more.

Fallon asked to explain what "Tough Enough" is all about. Austin spoke about how they put 14 rookies in a mansion, and in his day he had it real hard to get in the business. Austin thanked Bill DeMott, Booker T, and Trish Stratus. Austin said the contestants had to go through him, and what it takes to make it, and it can be the start of something big start for them. They showed a clip from this week's "Tough Enough" where Austin is confronting the bottom three contestants. He was shown talking to Andy. After video clip finished, Fallon thanked Austin.
