Steve Austin On Potential WWE Return: If The Stars Aligned, I Would

“Stone Cold” Steve Austin would raise some hell in WWE if the stars aligned.

Austin returned to the ring at WWE WrestleMania 38, where he faced Kevin Owens in a No Holds Barred match; in doing so, he wrestled for the first time in nearly 20 years. Despite multiple reports that the company was pitching to bring Sustin in for WrestleMania 39, the show came and went without an appearance by “The Texas Rattlesnake.”

Speaking with The Associated Press, the WWE Hall of Famer briefly noted that he wouldn’t rule out making surprise appearances for the company moving forward. He also acknowledged that he had talks with WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H.

“If the stars aligned again, then yes, I would,” said Austin.

Austin also discussed his new show, “Stone Cold Takes on America,” which premiered on A&E on April 30. He described how he’s trying to do other jobs after just one hour of training, and the experience allows viewers to see a vulnerable side of the legend.

“There are some things I’m loving … and there are some things that I’m little bit of a fish out of water, and it’s painful,” Austin said. “But through it all, I think we had 12 or 13 people on the crew, and we traveled all around in an RV, and I drove every single mile.

“I was just trying to perform a job the best that I could — someone else’s job — on one hour of training. So yeah, man, I don’t like to use the word vulnerable, but I guess I’m a little bit more vulnerable than Stone Cold.”

Austin then opened up about how he had a “little bit of an identity crisis’ throughout the first few episodes, as he was trying to be Steve Austin, rather than “Stone Cold”, on the show.

“For the first few episodes, there was a little bit of an identity crisis on my part,” he said. “I live my life as Steve Austin, and so I’m not trying to be ‘Stone Cold’ in this show.”

“Stone Cold Takes on America.” airs Sundays at 10 p.m. ET on A&E.

Austin recently noted that another match could happen, but he’s not lobbying for it. Check out his comments here.
