Steve Austin has mentioned in passing on his podcast that he will be in Dallas, Texasessentially the Texas Rattlesnake€™s backyardfor the WrestleMania 32 festivities, and you damn well better recognize that the Bionic Redneck isn€™t returning for just some throwaway segment. If Steve Austin is returning to the WWE, even if only for one night, it will be something substantial that is worth emotionally investing in. His segment with The Rock and Hulk Hogan has gone down in history as one of the best kickstarts to the event€™s history.

The bigger question is whether or not Stone Cold Steve Austin will be setting up something in an in-ring capacity down the line. Austin is an intelligent businessman and he won€™t say no to a nice payday, which WrestleMania 33 is certain to be in Orlando at the Citrus Bowl. We all know that he has at least one more match left in him, but finding the right opponent could take some patience and time when it comes to building such a match. Could you image the boos Roman Reigns would get by looking Stone Cold dead in the eyes from across the ring?

The Network deal he has set up with his Steve Austin Show podcast is paying dividends for the Texas Rattlesnake at the moment, so his relationship in the company is great. Personally, it€™d be interesting to see him return and screw Vince McMahon one last time by helping Shane McMahon win his match for control of the company, though it€™s unclear if the double birds could fly in a PG era.
