Stone Cold Steve Austin may be more than just a spectator at WrestleMania 42 this weekend. According to sources via Bodyslam.net, Austin is currently scheduled to be backstage at the event in Las Vegas — with it remaining unclear at this stage whether that presence will extend to an on-camera appearance during the show itself.
The possibility of Austin making any kind of WrestleMania appearance is enough to generate significant speculation on its own given his history of delivering memorable moments at the Show of Shows. Even a brief cameo would likely produce one of the louder crowd reactions of the entire weekend given the volume of current WWE fans who grew up watching Austin in his prime.
Steve Austin Is Also Scheduled for WWE World Meet-and-Greet Appearances on Both Saturday and Sunday
The timing of the report is particularly interesting because Austin will already be in Las Vegas for WrestleMania 42 weekend regardless of any in-show plans. He has meet-and-greet appearances scheduled for both Saturday and Sunday as part of the WWE World fan experience activities — meaning his presence in the building is confirmed, with the only question being whether he stays behind the curtain or steps into the spotlight. WrestleMania 42 takes place April 18 and 19 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, streaming live on the ESPN App in the US and Netflix internationally.
