Stone Cold Steve Austin: Five ways WWE could book The Rattlesnake for WrestleMania 39

At WrestleMania 38 Stone Cold Steve Austin beat Kevin Owens in the main event of night one, nineteen years after his last match in WWE.

The match and moment seemed like the perfect way for Austin to finally bring down the curtain on his legendary career. However, it may not be the last time we see Stone Cold in a WWE ring.

As reported yesterday, The Rattlesnake has not ruled out being in California for next year’s WrestleMania, stating if Vince gives him a call then he’ll be there.

GiveMeSport looks at five things the WWE Hall of Famer could do at WrestleMania 39 as WWE goes Hollywood.

Austin vs. (former) Austin

There are clearly some big plans for Theory in WWE, as seen by events in Dallas and his United States title win this past week. By next April, you’d fully expect Theory to have even more clout and a big WrestleMania match on the horizon.

They don’t come much bigger than facing one of the best of all time, in a match that could continue the story the pair had on night two in Dallas. Giving the young upstart the win too – by way of some shenanigans to protect the Stone Cold legacy – would add another smug string to the talented star’s bow. A Stone Cold selfie at WrestleMania would be the ultimate snap, too.

The Austin attraction

With The Undertaker and Triple H now fully retired, WWE no longer has that go to ‘attraction match’ for WrestleMania they’ve relied on in previous years. If Austin is waiting on Vince McMahon’s call, could he be that guy for as long as his body lets him? If so then the options are endless.

AJ Styles could add to his impressive list of WrestleMania opponents by facing Stone Cold. Could we see Viper vs. Rattlesnake for the first time ever? Or could WWE even bring out their biggest guns and
