What's the story with Stone Cold?

I remember hearing something on the radio about him not liking the direction his character was taking. I also thought it was funny that they were calling it the WWE. I was watching it every Sunday and Monday a few years ago, I was flipping through the channels and it sparks an interest, very entertaining. I lost interest after awhile, it was getting a little old. I haven't actually watched it since hmmm... been a long time.
