WWE Senior Vice President Bruce Prichard recently took to his "Something To Wrestle With" podcast and talked about a variety of topics such as how he wishes he could have stopped WWE Hall of Famer "Stone Cold" Steve Austin from leaving the WWE back in 2002.
Bruce Prichard said:
“[Steve] Austin in ‘02 [is who I wish I could’ve stopped from leaving]. Austin in ‘02. I wish I could have stopped that. I wish that never had happened, so, yeah. Definitely because Steve was the biggest in the business and he was upset at something that could have been talked through.”
Bruce Prichard also talked about why a dream match such as Sting vs. Undertaker never happened in the WWE.
Bruce Prichard said:
“Oh God, Taker-Sting, by 2015, that was dead in the water. Austin-Hogan [2002], you know, that would have been nice but obviously yeah, that didn’t happen but, the Sting thing with Taker… if that didn’t happen in 2001, 2002, why?”
