Here’s Why WWE Hasn’t Done The ‘Stone Cold Podcast’ Since August

The Stone Cold Podcast, which is hosted by WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin, has been one of the most watched shows on the WWE Network since the very first episode back in December of 2014, where Vince McMahon was the guest. But, despite its popularity, it looks like WWE isn’t interested in doing another one anytime soon.

On Monday’s Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez talked about why WWE hasn’t done a Stone Cold Podcast since back in August, saying that it’s because of Austin’s interview with Dean Ambrose, which was largely described as awkward.

Alvarez: “This person wants to know why there have not been any recent Stone Cold podcasts – has JBL taken over? What’s the story?”

Meltzer: “The Ambrose one. I didn’t think it was a disaster, but many did.”

Alvarez: “So it was blamed on Austin?”

Meltzer: “They haven’t done one since. They were supposed to do it every month. It could just be that they want JBL. He at least knows the framework of what they want, and Steve tries to be real, and they don’t really want real. They want their version of real, which is different from actual real, and JBL will do their version of real.”

Prior to the Ambrose interview, WWE had advertised that Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker, and Sting for future episodes of the Stone Cold Podcast, and as of this writing, none of them have been guests. Of course, Hogan was fired shortly after he was announced as the show’s next guest, but the other two just simply haven’t appeared on the show.
