WWE also organised a special broadcasting of the KO Show with Kevin Owens being the host of the show for WrestleMania 38, and the guest of this show was none other than WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin.
The process of this segment has been built for quite a long time. There were rumours of these two athletes were going to face each other one on one at the grandest age of them all. But for some reason, Austin could not be cleared for the ring. So we had to remain happy with a segment only.
WrestleMania 38 Results – Steve Austin Vs. Kevin Owens
But a segment where Stone Cold Steve Austin is involved is equally exciting for the fans. And definitely we must give credits to Kevin Owens for promoting this segment throughout the time. He had been phenomenal throughout this time. Whatever he did was just amazing, and the way he picked up heat for the match was undeniably great.
Austin is out of action for nearly two decades. There had been numerous of him coming back to action for years. Fans thought this might have been the time. But once again they had to meet with disappointments. Still we would say it again, any statement that includes Steve Austin is equally interesting for the fans.
It was the main event segment of the night. Sheamus & Ridge Holland vs. The New Day had been cancelled from night 1. Maybe they had shortage of time. Austin is finally back. But it would be unfortunate if the return is for only one night.
Kevin Owens entered the ring first and cut a promo. Once again he disrespected Texas and then he took one hand on Stone Cold Steve Austin. He threatened him to hit him with a Stunner and pour beer on his head.
Stone Cold Steve Austin came out. What an amazing moment it was! The fans were extremely hooked up with the whole segment. The ‘What!’ chants remained throughout Austin’s promo. Owens then shocked the entire crowd by challenging Austin in a match, and that was not any match, he challenged him in a No Holds Barred match.
Austin accepted the match and the match was on! It was a dream come true moment for every professional wrestling fan out there. Owens had to carry the most part of the match, obviously. He took most of the beatings as well. They fought in crowd, on the ramp, on stage there were weapons. It was a fun match and it was booked for fourteen minutes.
But Austin took a lot of beatings as well, which was shocking. It is quite unfortunate that Austin is already 57 and he does not have a long career left. We seriously wish he could come back earlier. The match was really fun. We still cannot believe how Austin did it. We seriously wish there was Jim Ross on the commentary table.
Austin kicked out of a Stunner as well which was an amazing moment. At the end, Owens attempted to hit Austin with a Steel Chair which he missed and Austin pinned him after a Stunner. What an amazing moment we just witnessed! WrestleMania 38 will always be a special night for this match.
