No Punk-Stone Cold at WrestleMania … this year

Craig Hansen — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 07:30:19 +0000

Far more than the upcoming Cena-The Rock match at WrestleMania 28 in Miami, a potential “two eras” matchup that would definitely put butts in seats is a match involving C.M. Punk facing off at WrestleMania 29 with Stone Cold Steve Austin at Cowboys Stadium in Dallas. Combine that with Undertaker having what could be his final pro match that year, with The Streak potentially still alive, and you’d have a WrestleMania to remember.

But in a recent ESPN interview, Punk ripped on The Rock for not mixing well with other workers and crew backstage, a problem Austin never had but has been a frequent complaint about The People’s Champ since his days as a WWE regular.

Still, I get nervous when WWE starts booking main events a year away and more; after all, every WWE talent is one wellness policy violation, one bad fall on an ankle, or one back surgery laser away from sitting out for months while rehabbing. It’s risky business.

Upcoming RAW guest hosts

The WWE has released a list of upcoming guest hosts of RAW. The list includes a nice mix of celebrities from other areas of sports entertainment, as well as old familiar faces. Here’s the list:

Jan. 25: Psych stars James Roday and Dule Hill
Feb. 1: William Shatner
Feb. 8: NASCAR’s Carl Edwards
Feb. 15: Jerry Springer
Mar. 15: Steve Austin

The Psych stars ought to be entertaining, and Jerry Springer could be loads of fun; but the return of Stone Cold Steve Austin is really the broadcast to write home about. It makes all the short term health insurance NC has to offer seem insufficient; he may be retired for close to a decade now, but Stone Cold still dominates!
