Actually Austin was doing two separate tough guy gimmicks here
Backstage and in promos he's this brawler type who will attack you anywhere and has a lot of experience with streetfights. Like he occasionally works as a bouncer etc
In ring he's like this Japanese submission specialist type, like 80s njpw or ijpw or whatever. Hes exactly like bret hart, slow and methodical.
Playing both gimmicks make it confusing.
Moxley is kind of doing the edgy earring wearing brawler thing much better rn
