Report: Big Surprise Planned For WWE WrestleMania 38
Who could it be?
Feb 16, 2022
While "Stone Cold" Steve Austin hasn't performed inside the squared circle since 2003's WrestleMania 19, The Texas Rattlesnake looks set to return to the ring at WrestleMania 38 in a match against Kevin Owens, with people within WWE reportedly talking like the return is a "done deal."
That might not be the only big surprise at The Showcase Of The Immortals, though.
Dave Meltzer reported on Wrestling Observer Radio that another "Austin-level" surprise is planned for WrestleMania and he speculated it could be Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker or Ric Flair.
"There's apparently one more surprise besides Austin still to come and it's supposed to be Austin-level and that's a pretty small list that could be Austin-level. I think Dwayne's (The Rock) got stuff going on so I don't think it's gonna be him. So who else do we have? Hogan, Flair, Undertaker, right? Is there anybody else still alive that would qualify at that level?" Meltzer said.
WrestleMania is set to take place on April 2 and April 3 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Beyond a Steve Austin match, Cody Rhodes, who is expected to sign with WWE, might also be in action at The Show Of Shows.
