As a seasoned gamer of wrestling, who has witnessed the highs and lows of WWE for decades, the prospect of Stone Cold Steve Austin returning to the ring at WrestleMania 41 is nothing short of exhilarating. The thought of seeing Austin square off against CM Punk, a dream match long-awaited by fans, sends shivers down my spine.
Even though WWE’s WrestleMania 41 is yet to come, there have been hints about what might transpire at “The Grandest Stage of Them All.” It appears that The Rock’s grand comeback this year, where he partnered with Roman Reigns against Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes, has sparked interest among other stars to make a dramatic return. In Philadelphia, fans anticipated a showdown between Rock and Austin, two formidable rivals in professional wrestling. However, the main event saw The Undertaker emerging from the shadows and attacking Rock instead.
In a chat with The Athletic, Stone Cold Steve Austin hinted that fans might see him back in the wrestling ring within the next year. “I’ve said I won’t leave Nevada,” Austin shared. “But guess what? WrestleMania next year is taking place in Las Vegas, and that’s in Nevada.” Although he’s mostly out of active competition, Austin made a comeback for his first match in 19 years at WrestleMania 38 in Texas against Kevin Owens.
In November, there were rumors that WWE was considering a match between Austin and CM Punk after Punk’s return to the company, with the two reportedly in contact. Austin has now addressed these rumors, neither confirming nor denying the possibility of a comeback. If he does return, it would be under specific conditions, as the match between these two iconic wrestlers has long been anticipated by fans. However, due to Punk’s departure from WWE and Austin’s contentment with his rural lifestyle and occasional wrestling engagements, this dream match never materialized.
With Punk making his first televised singles match appearance since long ago this weekend, it sets the stage for potential conflicts to unfold. Initially, he was slated to fight Seth Rollins at this year’s WrestleMania, but that didn’t materialize due to an injury sustained in January. This encounter could very well be a marquee event for the performer who hasn’t yet headlined the biggest wrestling spectacle of the year during his career.
