WrestleMania 38 saw the in-ring return of ‘Stone Cold Steve Austin after 19 long years. He defeated Kevin Owens in a ‘No Holds Barred match. He later returned the night two of the show and ended up hitting a ‘Stunner’ on Austin Theory and his mentor, WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, who botched the move. Austin appeared again on night two of WrestleMania and delivered Stunners to Austin Theory, Pat McAfee and Vince McMahon. Now, fans are wondering if he would be making an appearance at next year’s WrestleMania 39 as well. ‘The Texas Rattlesnake’ himself shared his thoughts on the matter.
Steve Austin talks possible WrestleMania 39 appearance
Austin and his business partners joined the Brewbound Podcast. The veteran star said that he imagines that he won’t be there in some capacity but as far as an on-screen appearance, that’s a decision of the WWE Chairman Vince McMahon. He said that if he gets the call, he says he’ll be there. Here is what he said:
Well [Austin laughed when asked if he’ll be at WrestleMania 39], for me to participate in WrestleMania 38, if you would’ve told me, ‘Hey man, you’re gonna be a part of WrestleMania 38. Not only that, you’re gonna main event night one,’ I would’ve said you’re full of sh*t and you’re crazy and there I was in Dallas, Texas, headlining main event on day one so, never say ‘never’ but I would really imagine that within the scope of that show, that’s gonna be a big show in a big time city and it’ll be a two-night event again so, I’m not — I’m sure I’m done wrestling per se, but as a part of WWE, I can’t imagine I would not be there in some capacity and I’m not booking myself on the show because I didn’t book myself on 38. That’s a Vince [McMahon] thing and I have a great relationship with him and if I get the call, I’ll be there.
It is now up to Mr.McMahon, whether he will summon Steve Austin when WrestleMania goes Hollywood next year. The Rock is likely to headline against Roman Reigns, so this would be the first WrestleMania to feature Austin and Rock since WrestleMania 32 in 2016.
