Steve Austin ‘happy to’ make WWE WrestleMania 41 appearance if idea makes sense
“Stone Cold” Steve Austin would be happy to appear at WrestleMania 41 if WWE has an idea for him that makes sense.
Reiterating comments that he’s made previously, Austin told Fox News Digital that — with the event taking place in Nevada — he’s open to appearing at WrestleMania 41. Austin lives on a ranch that’s located south of Reno. Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas is hosting WrestleMania 41 on Saturday, April 19 and Sunday, April 20, 2025.
“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,” Austin told Fox News Digital.
If Austin does appear, it would be his first time being involved with WrestleMania since coming out of retirement in 2022 to face Kevin Owens in a no holds barred match. That was Austin’s first time wrestling in 19 years.
The 59-year-old Austin told Fox News Digital that, while he always thinks about having one more match, he’s “totally reality based” and believes that pro wrestling is a young man’s sport.
“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,” Austin said. “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.”
