Oh Hell Yeah! In the final segment of Night 1 of WrestleMania 38, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin was a guest on the KO Show. However, the segment deteriorated and Kevin Owens ended up challenging The Rattlesnake to a No Holds Barred match, which was accepted.
This was Austin’s first match in 19 years.
The two ended up having a true wrestling match, even spilling out and fighting in the crowd. Not only did Austin take a suplex on the concrete, but he even through Owens through a table near the end of the match. The finish came when each of them hit Stunners on the other, with The Rattlesnake hitting the last one for the victory.
Editor’s Opinion:
I have to say that I was in complete shock when this ended up being a match. I figured it would end up being a quick 30-second exhibition like we got with The Rock a few years ago in Dallas, but this was a true, straight up fight. Not only did Austin look great and provided a WrestleMania moment that will be talked about for ages, but Kevin Owens proved that he deserves to be considered one of the top workers in the world. WWE trust him completely as they gave him the main event spot with one of their legends!
