10 Dream Steve Austin WWE WrestleMania Matches We'd Rather See

This one could happen now.

Imagine the backlash if WWE announced that KO wasn't Austin's opponent and they were replacing him with big Bill. It'd be fierce, but this dream bout actually sounds like the kind of thing Saudi Arabian royalty would pay to have on one of their shows rather than 'Mania.

It's one of the only major WWF vs. WCW matches that Vince McMahon has left. He's plundered that market to the point of excess over the years, and yet fans of a certain age would pay attention if Austin vs. Goldberg was advertised. These alpha males were often compared to one another during the 90s, so there'd be instant interest.

Austin would be capable of working a short, explosive match with Goldberg. They'd only need to go for five-seven minutes (think Bill vs. Brock Lesnar at 'Mania 33) and that'd be enough to satisfy. Would Steve be all in if the one-off salary was high enough?
