 Well, it's a new regime now and as such, it appears Theory might be going back to his proper name. WWE Raw star Theory will reportedly once again be known as Austin Theory, courtesy of WWE.

 This is of course inspired by the ending of arguably the greatest match in WWE history, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs Bret Hart in a Submission Match at WrestleMania 13. While both did essentially the same thing on paper, there are the storytelling nuances that make this merely an impression[...]

Fresh off of his well-earned retirement from the ring and his equally well-earned induction into the WWE Hall of Fame last week, WWE legend The Undertaker reportedly has one of his next ventures with the company already lined up and admittedly, it's not the most original idea in the world. The Undertaker on Peacock's Broken Skull Sessions[...]

 That is until the announcement of a return to action of sorts for "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, which brought sales up, and that brings me to my next issue. WrestleMania used to be marketed as "the showcase of the immortals", a stage where legends were born and made their names  Hulk Hogan became immortal when he slammed Andre[...]

 The heel tag team dominates the babyface Champion throughout until he turns them against one another and then capitalizes for the win. Hold on a minute… 👀#ICTitle @humberto_wwe @AngelGarzaWwe pic.twitter.com/Pz67jYcg5W — WWE (@WWE) April 2, 2022 And Ricochet does just that, before hitting the 650 on Angel and the Recoil on Humberto for the pinfall to retain.

 Let's take a look back at "Stone Cold" Steve Austin versus Bret "Hitman" Hart in a Submission Match from WrestleMania 13.

The speculation about WWE Hall of Famer "Stone Cold" Steve Austin having a return match at next month's WrestleMania has run the gamut from "maybe?" to "definitely!" to ultimately what we got this week, which was a confirmation that Austin would be live on the show, but as a part of a KO Show segment with Kevin Owens[...]

Kevin Owens finally laid out the official challenge on WWE Raw this week: he wants Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania… as a guest on the KO Show Yes, Owens called out Stone Cold to end WWE Raw last night, but not, as many were expecting, for a match Instead, Owens wants to interview (and[...]

The news that has wrestling fans of all ages absolutely buzzing this week is the reporting that WWE Hall of Famer "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is on the verge of making an in-ring comeback at this year's WrestleMania event in Dallas, Texas  This would be a monumental moment for WWE, not only because Austin is their most[...]

 "Vince and I have had a love/hate relationship for the last 20 years, but it's been good.  We've got a lot of water under the bridge."  He continued that he sees Vince differently than how he sees other people he's worked for, including UFC's Dana White, saying "I look at Vince as more of a father[...]

 So what's the WWE to do after they already promised the most "stupendous" WrestleMania ever?  Well, if last night's big reports are true, it looks like they're turning to their biggest draw in history, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, in hopes of a comeback. It's being reported WWE wants "Stone Cold" Steve Austin to return to the ring at April's[...]

WWE Hall of Famer "Stone Cold" Steve Austin retired from in-ring competition on March 30, 2003 at Wrestlemania XIX  That's just about 19 years ago now and in WWE time, that's nearly three generations ago  Brock Lesnar, John Cena, and now Roman Reigns have all served as the "face of the company" in the post-Austin WWE, yet apparently, fans[...]

 There was only one problem… it wasn't really Santa. While McMahon may have had an ax to grind with Santa, there was one more person who had punished him much worse and much more often throughout his life than Father Christmas… and that, of course, was jolly old "Stone Cold" Steve Austin[...]

 With the "showcase of the immortals" returning to Texas for the first time in six years, who better to market the event than WWE's most famous and beloved Texan ever, who also just so happens to be the most popular wrestler of all time?  I'm of course referring to WWE Hall of Famer "Stone Cold" Steve[...]

 Recently, former wrestlers have started getting into the G.O.A.T.-naming game, most notably yesterday, when The Undertaker specifically laid out the four men who would appear on his wrestling "Mount Rushmore."  And now today, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has joined the fun and made his own list of faces he'd carve into his imaginary wrestling "Mount[...]

 WWE are the ones left looking silly in all of this and honestly, they should have just returned Netflix's money instead of insinuating (pretty damn heavily) something they were not capable of producing. All of this reminds me of a similar situation with the WWF Fully Loaded pay per view event in July of 2000, where all of[...]

 For Steve Austin, it took seven years of trial and error, setbacks, and adversity across numerous different promotions until on the night of June 23, 1996, a now "Stone Cold" Steve Austin was crowned the WWF's King of the Ring and was expected to cut a post-match promo live  What happened next, improvised live on[...]

How can AEW grow professional wrestling during a time some see as the beginning of its demise? Will wrestlers still function as "independent contractors" and not employees, as was once discussed? Will being on national television force AEW to restrain its content even before it's made its way to TNT's airwaves? PodcastOne Thankfully, "Stone Cold" Steven Austin[...]

Whether it's mild humor, or a full blown absurdity fest ala Danger 5, this property is too ridiculous to take seriously. Third, Patrick Warburton needs to play Steve Austin, whether your adaptation is live action or animated. I'm happy to say that Dynamite managed to check off two of those requirements, and since it's a comic book[...]

Pictures for a crisp and cool $7.2 million. While no official reason has been given by either Szifron or WB, the rumblings are something along the lines of "creative differences".  Three years is kind of a long time to develop something like this before realizing the directions aren't the same, but who knows *casually looks at Solo:[...]

Too much of wrestling fashion is big and bombastic looking — having these as understated alternatives is very appealing. Superstars like Shawn Michaels, The Undertaker, Sasha Banks, John Cena, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Finn Balor, and so many more have designs available they held a fan vote on Twitter earlier this year to see what designs[...]

Chris Jericho appeared on a recent episode of Stone Cold Steve Austin's podcast, and the two apparently spent a significant chunk of time complaining about WWE's backstage interview segments It seems that the pair feel that the backstage interviewers are robotic, and also that they end in a weird way that doesn't help the show[...]
