I know it has something to do with Steve Austin but I don't know what. Please don't call me stupid because I didn't watch wrestling during the Stone Cold years. Where did it derive from or does he just simply like math ratios? Best answer gets 10 points.

At King of the Year 1996 Steve Austin fought Jake Roberts in the finals of the tournament. At the time Roberts was doing a Bible believing gimmick and would quote scriptures during promos. So after Austin beat Roberts in the finals Austin gave a promo where he said "You talk about your psalms, talk about your John 3:16.well Austin 3:16 says I just whooped your ***." After that night Austin 3:16 spread like crazy.

3:16 is a quote from the bible:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
However austin used this 3:16 to insult Jake "The Snake" Roberts:
Austin's genuine rise to super stardom began on June 23, 1996, when he won the WWF's annual King of the Ring single-elimination tournament on PPV. After toppling Marc Mero in the semi-finals, he defeated Jake "The Snake" Roberts in the final, who was then incorporating a moral, Christian message in his gimmick. After the match, Austin cut a promo during his coronation which viciously mocked Jake's reformed lifestyle, telling Roberts:
"You sit there and you thump your Bible, and you say your prayers, and it didn't get you anywhere! Talk about your Psalms, talk about John 3:16... Austin 3:16 says I just whipped your ***!"
Austin 3:16 ultimately became one of the most popular
catchphrases in wrestling history. Austin would later turn face, as spontaneous fan support for him grew larger by the week.
Here is that moment that made him famous for life:

It's a blasphemy of John 3:16: "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him,
should not perish, but have everlasting life."
Some (all) people should leave mocking the Bible alone, it's kinda
like going out and playing with a bottle of nitro, just for "fun."
