“Stone Cold” Steve Austin was one of the top stars in the industry during the Attitude Era, but The Rattlesnake wrestled his last match when he was defeated by The Rock at WrestleMania 19.
Even though Austin has been retired since 2003 people still talk about the possibility of the former WWE Champion coming out of retirement for one more match.
Austin recently addressed a potential return match on the Steve Austin Show, and he said that in theory he could work one more match.
“For the last couple of weeks, down there at the RAW reunion in Tampa, down there at the Madison Square Garden show at Monday Night RAW – people always ask me, ‘Hey man, you’re still in really good shape. You got one more match left in you?’ And I tell them, ‘Man.’ I say, ‘You know, it’s a tough thing to think about.’ Physically, would I be able to have one more match? Yes, most definitely, and I could make it to that match without being injured. Although the risks are always there, just because I think all of the surgeries, I had… where I had the spinal stenosis, and getting that bone spur taken off my spinal cord – I’m in a good place. Nerves are feeling a lot better than they use to. So, you know, in theory, could I have a match? In theory, yes.”
Austin has made a few appearances on WWE programming this year, and he was recently added to to SmackDown’s big debut on FOX on Friday, October 4.
