Stone Cold Steve Austin was originally scheduled to be in The Undertaker’s place at WrestleMania 40 during Roman Reigns vs. Cody Rhodes, but Austin couldn’t do it due to his family.
Austin has mentioned in recent interviews that he’s open to being a part of WrestleMania 41.
He reiterated this once again during an interview with FOX News, but noted that he would only return if what WWE has in mind makes sense.
Here’s what the former 6-time WWF Champion said:
“I said something about it this year just because it’s 400 miles down the road. I do spend several trips a year in Las Vegas, so, to think that WWE’s biggest signature pay-per-view event is 400 miles away, in a state that I live in, that I’m going to be there, make a couple of appearances, I’ll be promoting my beer if they, WWE, reached out and said, ‘Hey, maybe you want to do something,’ I’d be happy to do it as long as it makes sense.
But to get in there, put trunks on, and to try and be the guy that I once was… I did that, two years ago and tried to do something but I never had a ring to practice in. But there’s so much going on.
They got such a stacked roster with so many great superstars these days that they’re not going to have any problem filling two nights of entertainment.
But if I got out there and be a part of it on one hand and do something positive that works for the company and works for what they want to do, and it satisfied a crowd, I’d be happy to.”
WrestleMania 41 takes place on April 19 & 20 in 2025, at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada.
This is going to be the second WrestleMania to take place in the Las Vegas area, with the first one being WrestleMania IX in 1993.
