Why Stone Cold Steve Austin’s Potential WWE In-Ring Return Won’t Be Embarrassing

Stone Cold Steve Austin returning to the WWE ring will be the ultimate cherry on top for the fandom in 2025.

Reportedly, during WrestleMania 41 weekend, The Texas Rattlesnake told more than one person that he possibly had one more match left in him and was ready to return to the ring under the right circumstances.

While numerous WWE Superstars are interested in being the one Austin faces in the ring, CM Punk’s name has been suggested internally.

Stone Cold Steve Austin will never embarrass himself

The Texas Rattlesnake is the man who led WWE through the Attitude Era, which is possibly credited as the company’s most popular era. Fans were in awe of his rebellious, anti-authority character. He became the face of the company and created iconic moments during his career.

While speaking on Behind The Turnbuckle Studios, Vince Russo revealed that if Stone Cold Steve Austin claims he has one more left in him, it’s because he is sure of it, and is not overcommitting himself.

I’ve been reading about this, and here’s the one thing you got to say about Austin. If he keeps talking about having one more match, he knows he’s got one more left in him. Steve Austin is the last guy that is going to go out there and embarrass himself. So, if Austin is saying that, I believe he’s got one left in him.

Even Jonathan Coachman chimed in with how seriously Austin takes the WWE product.

If there’s one guy out there that takes his performance and the in-ring product very seriously, it’s him. He has walked out on more than a few times because he didn’t feel like it was the right thing for his character to do.

There is no confirmation about Stone Cold Steve Austin’s return, and he has made peace with never wrestling again.
