The match includes CM Punk and Stone Cold Steve Austin, but it’s far from set.
Recently, Fightful Select was able to obtain the details on the possible match and where it stands.
Upon CM Punk’s return to WWE this past Saturday, there were several in the company pushing for the possibility of CM Punk to take on Stone Cold Steve Austin. So much so, that we’re told that Punk had even had discussions about the possibility.
One source in the company had indicated that many ideas have already been floated between CM Punk and WWE. If all went well, the ideal scenario would see Punk flying to Austin to go over ideas.
Those close to Austin say that they’ve never heard him mention any personal issues that the two would need to get over.
Back in 2022, Stone Cold returned to the ring for the first time in nearly 20 years to have a match against Kevin Owens at Wrestlemania 38. It was a No Holds Barred Match that lasted just over 13 minutes. Steve Austin won the match.
Punk and Austin had words for each other back in 2012 when they were both promoting a WWE video game.
Unfortunately nothing came of this match, as Punk was out of the company just a few months later.
It’s been on a lot of people’s wish list as a dream match for a long time, and now it seems closer than ever before to actually happening.
Could we finally see it? Maybe. Bodyslam will keep you all updated as the situation unfolds.
