Stone Cold Steve Austin Officially Challenged For WrestleMania 38

There’s your answer. WrestleMania is on the horizon and that means it is time for WWE to find something to make the show feel as important as possible. That is often easier said than done but now the company seems to be putting together some of their bigger ideas. They still need a few more major concepts though and that is what they seem to have set up this week.

This week’s edition of WWE Monday Night Raw opened with Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens failing to win the Raw Tag Team Titles. As a result, the two did not have a path to WrestleMania, but Owens said he had an idea. At the end of the show, Owens said that he wanted to put on the biggest Kevin Owens Show of all time at WrestleMania. Owens issued a challenge to Steve Austin to be his guest. This comes after rumors of Austin wrestling another match at the event, with Owens insulting Austin’s home state of Texas for several weeks. There is no word on if Austin will appear before WrestleMania.

Opinion: As much fun as it would have been to see Austin get back in the ring, there are only so many ways to have that take pace. Austin has been out of the ring for the better part of twenty years and that is a heck of a long time before making a comeback. Let him come out, say his catchphrases, hit a Stunner and drink beer. That’s what he does best and there is no reason to risk having him go out there and embarrass himself.

What do you think of the idea? What do you see happening at the show? Let us know in the comments below.
