Stone Cold Steve Austin Comments On Possible Match w/CM Punk, Confirms Tough Enough Season 2

News

Stone Cold Steve Austin is one of the WWE’s most outspoken legends, and he recently spoke to the UK Daily Sun. Here are some highlights:

On CM Punk
I really enjoyed it. It was like a breath of fresh air. He’s telling it like it is. He’s got himself a good contract now and they are treating him like the top guy that he is.

On WWE storylines
You know when you’re going along with candy coated storylines, and something organic comes along, it’s a good chance to make a lot of money. They threw HHH in there, and I just hope they play their cards right. It was an interesting PPV (Summerslam) – I saw Del Rio coming but it will be interesting to see it working out.

On a possible match with Punk
Look I’ve heard the same things and I’ve said that were I to do it CM Punk would be the man I would like to do it with. All the stars would have to align for that to happen – it would have to be good for me financially, good for me in terms of execution and storyline.

Obviously it would have to be good for WWE and work out for CM Punk too. I’m not starting up anything here, but could it happen? Yes. Will it happen? I don’t know.

Austin also confirmed that Tough Enough would be having a second season.
