Steve Austin returned to the WWE ring for the first time in 19 years at WrestleMania 38, where he faced Kevin Owens in a singles match. The match headlined night 1 of The Show of Shows and The Texas Rattlesnake won, in a hard-fought match.
On the latest Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T opened up about the possibility of Stone Cold Steve Austin returning to the ring once again, and possibly taking The Undertaker’s role as a big-name draw for stadium shows:
He continued:
Booker T feels that Austin is the last of the icons from yesteryear who can have the impact that The Undertaker had during his on-screen appearances.
Steve Austin is open to returning to WWE next year
In a recent interview, the WWE Hall of Famer said that he’s likely done wrestling in the ring, but is open to making an appearance at WrestleMania next year.
Next year’s WrestleMania takes place in Hollywood, and will once again be a two-night event. While Austin doesn’t expect to wrestle at next year’s show, there is speculation that WWE is doing everything possible to bring back his rival The Rock to take on Roman Reigns.
