Comedian Dan Soder has revealed that Peacock purchased an animated series for WWE Hall of Famer Steve Austin. It was written by Soder and Dan Saint Germain.
Soder claims that WWE and Peacock are holding up the project that was made during the COVID-19 pandemic.
During an appearance on Barstool Radio, the comedian shared the news and claimed that for the last 17 months, he has been asking WWE and Peacock to figure out the logistics of finally getting it released publicly:
“Some bullsh*t right now and me saying publicly will kind of push it thorough, or I’ll just completely fuck the deal. But at this point, I don’t give a f**k. During the pandemic, Dan Saint Germain and I wrote a show with Stone Cold Steve Austin that was a cartoon, and we sold it to Peacock. But now WWE and Peacock are bullshittin. It’s been 17 months on the sidelines, and I keep calling these motherf**kers, being like, ‘This is gonna be f**king funny,’ and Stone Cold is like way on board. We’ve developed the show with him, not with the WWE. I used to get Stone Cold calling me. Dude, Stone Cold is in my phone, and he would call me….It’s dark and weird [the project]. That’s why Stone Cold liked it. He was like, ‘Y’all are funny as hell, man.’ He’s the f**king man. He would just be calling. ‘I was shooting sniper rifles, so what’s going on?’”
Here’s the story: @DanSoder teamed up with @steveaustinBSR to create a cartoon on @peacock. But bullshit with them & @WWE is holding it up Don’t know who/what is the reason it’s not happening but nobody is doing anything about it, bc there’s no pressure. So everyone tweet at them pic.twitter.com/8yaPLTmR3E
