Yes. But why are you so childish about this? Did you not get enough attention from your parents when you were younger? What's the catch? Punk's an asshole. We get it.

I rather see Austin come back for a match than The Rock or anyone else besides Chris Benoit.



But I dont want to see a 2 minute Stone Cold squash. I want a full match. I want a legit 15 minute banger from Austin vs Owens.

No surprise at all the WWE is apparently reaching out to Steve Austin. Not sure how interested I am in him vs. Kevin Owens though.

Yeah wow... I mean for 19 years it's swirled in the mind of most fans, who would Austin return against if anyone... and Kevin Owens? Well obviously he's a fantastic talent, amazing character and any mic work between them would easily be gold. Certainly worry about the match, Austin taking any of Owen's spots is a bit worrying. But if they have planned a match that pleased Austin then I'm sure it would please me. His standard has always been very high.

I wonder how much they are offering him for one match, I am thinking over 2 million, I just can't see him entertaining anything less, not even sure that is close.

Legit when I found out about this story I was like "no way".... like it's not happening. But as I read more about it I am thinking YES PLEASE. I mean seriously this is the only think that has been mentioned about WWE in YEARS that made me feel some kind of excitement. Sure the critics will say "yeah but what does this do for the young guys".... "He's taking spots"....


Austin can bring a guy like me, who really doesn't watch WWE anymore, back again for a huge show. Then WWE can hook me with their great young talent like Austin Theory and Rick Moss. It's their chance. Book a fucking excellent card around these draw matches that will pull in people because Austin is rasslin. Simple concept. Time to bring back some old fans and hookem with something good. Time for a really good Mania.

Actually I can see that too. Austin had that grocery store brawl with Booker that is so memorable. I could see something along those lines mixed with The Boneyard match. That thought is fine, I'll still tune if for it but it excites me much less than an actual match. And yes I realize that Austin in an actual match going 10+ minutes is highly unrealistic but anything can happen with the right roids or TRT.

Now reading that in addition to Steve Austin WWE is planning an additional "Austin level" surprise for Mania.
Quote:
“I don’t know which night he’s going to wrestle, but that is the plan. They pretty much started the feud on Raw. And there’s apparently one more surprise besides Austin still to come. It’s supposed to be Austin level. That’s a pretty small list of people that could be Austin level.


The Rock, I think Dwayne’s got stuff going on, so I don’t think it’s going to be him. So, who else do we have? Hogan, Flair, and Undertaker, right? Is there anybody else still alive that would qualify at that level?


Cena’s got stuff going on. That could always be a swerve, too, but I was told he’s got stuff going on. I don’t see Cena being at the level of an Austin.”

I was thinking about other surprises the WWE could pull out the other day, and I was thinking about how Drew McIntyre’s pretty aimless at the moment. Thought something between him and Batista could be somewhat interesting. Either as an opponent or a tag partner.

I also thought about it possibly being a woman. Someone like Trish Stratus is not “Austin level,” but would be a pretty big deal for them.

By the way, apparently there are rumors it’s going to be Austin vs. Goldberg, which makes WAY more sense than Austin vs. Owens.

Definitely a “dream match”. Could end up being Goldberg/Taker levels of bad. Also, won’t that be Goldberg fresh off the back of a loss to Roman?

I dunno, I think Austin is smarter than that. Yeah, I’ve got no clue how they go about it. Goldberg and Roman could be a disputed finish or Goldberg could come out and plan to announce his retirement, only for the glass to shatter. Who knows?

Forgot about Shawn Michaels as a possibility for the “Austin level” replacement. Kurt Angle is another possibility (if he’s got mobility).

They had a spot planned for Angle with the RK-Bro/Alpha Academy stuff. Could have scrapped that for something bigger.

Michaels would be interesting. Wash away the sour taste of his last match. HBK vs Styles? vs Rollins?

Yeah that could be a pretty decent starting point. “You going nowhere yet son, cos Austin 3:16 says “you’re next”.

Shawn Michaels vs AJ Styles couldn't possibly be bad. Don't know if it could even come close to the expectations, but I refuse to believe they could put on a stinker even if they were both doped up on somas like 1995 HBK.

Steve Austin needs to face a brawler where they can do all the window dressing in the world. He has not done a return match for all this time, and Austin has been so protective of his character over the years...he's not going to put himself in a position to embarass himself.

I’m thinking RKBro win back the Raw Tag Team Titles and face Rollins & Owens. Maybe Gable vs. Angle? That would get me wet. But Angle could also slip into the spot I suggested for Batista — teaming with McIntyre against Corbin & Moss or something.

I just can’t get past the idea of Styles vs. Michaels. It’s just too good.

I get ya, but it is Austin. There’s something fitting about him coming back as the old gunslinger. I think it works better now than it would have when he was in his 40’s.

Lol, it’s weird to think that Austin retired when he was 38.

I’m also down with them bringing back WCW and sending most of their guys north of 40 there to prop it up and have Raw and SmackDown be for guys under 40, so they have to do something with them. WCW can cost on star power and experience. And they’d have a pretty awesome roster — Styles, Orton, Lashley, Balor, Rey, Shelton, Miz, Kofi, Brock, Cesaro, Sheamus, etc.

Agree on both counts. That’s why I don’t really want to see Austin against a guy who orients their stuff around high spots, even if they are younger.

I had this passing thought today that the WWE might do a “Texas Legends” theme at Mania this year:

* Austin to face Goldberg in the biggest match of the show.

* The Undertaker to team with Drew McIntyre and give him the “rub.”

* Shawn Michaels to wrestle AJ Styles.

* Booker T to team with some babyfaces against a bunch of heels. As cluttered as it sounds, I could see something like Booker T, Street Profits & The Mysterios against Kurt Angle, Alpha Academy, Dolph Ziggler & Robert Roode.

I dunno, just a thought. That’d be a few old guys coming out of the woodwork, but it’d be a distinct theme for Mania, and they could be scattered out between the two nights. And it’s not like it doesn’t help anyone.

Of all the legends that could make a Texas Mania return you got the right ones. I think Booker T would be a great return especially if they marketed it as a big deal. Booker was either a main eventer or that level just under, so I think you gotta treat a return from him like a really big deal to get the most out of it.

Plus Booker is HUGE and looks awesome and I have no doubt he can do another high level match with the right opponent.

I would really hate to see Taker return but if it's gotta happen I'd probably find a tag match like you said, maybe even involving HBK, IDK. I don't really want to see Taker and HBK.
