"Stone Cold" Steve Austin Officially Accepts Kevin Owen's WrestleMania Invitation


-- On Monday's episode of WWE Raw, Kevin Owens called out "Stone Cold" Steve Austin to appear on the KO Show at WrestleMania 38's Night One. Owens has been trashing the state of Texas for a couple of weeks with all signs pointing to a confrontation with Austin at the PPV. Today, WWE posted a video message from Austin where he officially accepted Owen's challenge of appearing. Austin first talked about wrestling his last match 19 years ago - a loss - and he has had to live with that defeat since then. He states that Owens has woke up something deep within him that he kept buried for 19 years and how trash talking Texas has gotten his attention.

"Whether you want to call this a KO Show, a match, a fight, a brawl, whatever. I will guarantee you this. In Dallas, Texas, where I started my career, at WrestleMania, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is gonna open up one last can of whoop-ass on you, Kevin Owens. And that's the bottom line, cause Stone Cold said so."
