Steve Austin Talks More About Comeback Comment, CM Punk And Brock Lesnar As Potential Opponents

On Stone Cold Steve Austin's most recent podcast, he addressed recent rumors that he'd be making a WWE return, and also touched on a few names that he'd like to work with.

Comeback talk regarding Stone Cold Steve Austin is always a hot topic, and he added fuel to that fire recently by saying he was "training for a comeback." Hearts were broken last week when he and his wife stated on his podcast that he was actually training for a comeback to Gold's Gym, because he didn't want to work out there while out of shape.

Nevertheless, Austin hasn't ruled out a potential one-off match at WrestleMania, but said he wasn't planning a comeback. A listener mentioned CM Punk, Brock Lesnar and John Cena as interesting opponents.

Austin called Cena a "living legend" and said it would be great to work with him. Austin also called Lesnar a "wrecking machine", and said he would love to do a match with him or Punk. However he said that he didn't want to entertain the thoughts of the rumors that he'd be returning.

With WrestleMania 32 slated to take place in Texas, many have speculated that WWE and Austin want to do business, with his tongue-in-cheek comeback comment adding fuel to that fire. Unfortunately for fans, that is nowhere near a lock.
