WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently explained on his Hall of Fame podcast why he believes WWE chose to use the KO Show segment featuring “Stone Cold” Steve Austin to close out WrestleMania 38: Night One.

You can check out Booker’s comments below:

Booker T on Steve Austin returning at WrestleMania 38: “I am just looking forward to seeing one of my old compadres come back. One of my all-time rivals, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Kevin Owens. I always said that I wish I had Stone Cold Steve Austin’s entrance. I always felt that was top-notch, maybe one entrance in the business. The glass would break, Stone Cold would come right out, oh man, he looked like a badass. This dude here, that’s what I want to be a part of. So to see that right there, hear that music, and see Steve make that walk one more time, I think that’s worth the price of admission.”

On why Steve Austin should close out Night 1: “I say we do it that first night and get it done, let’s see how this thing plays out. Just Steve Austin coming back and hearing that music play that first time. You’re not going to get a bigger pop than that. So I say utilize that one pop that one night, and let’s see exactly what we’ve got left in the tank.”

On why Stone Cold appearing should headline tonight’s show: “I am not going to sit here and say I don’t want to see Ronda and Charlotte in the main event. Especially with the Me Too movement going on. I’ll get a lot of trouble for that. But I don’t know, of course, that match is main event caliber, main event material. But we haven’t’ seen Stone Cold Steve Austin for almost 20 years in the squared circle doing something. For me, from a promoter’s perspective, if Elvis came back, Elvis would be in the main event. It’s just that simple. If Stone Cold is coming back, you give Stone Cold Steve Austin that respect. More than anything, for what he’s done for the business. If he’s capable of going out and having a match, you let him do it.”
