Over the past few weeks on WWE Monday Night Raw, Kevin Owens has been trashing the state of Texas, which is being done to build towards a match with Steve Austin at WrestleMania 38.
However, Dave Meltzer noted on today’s Wrestling Observer Radio that Austin had not agreed to the match, but only to a confrontation. Austin will be on the show but the only thing he has committed to so far is a confrontation.
“Steve Austin and Kevin Owens, they will have a confrontation but it is not clear if that will be a match or not anymore because it’s essentially up to Austin at this point. They want the match. They thought they had the match and Steve – you know there’s a reason he hasn’t wrestled for 19 years and I just know that as of Friday he had not agreed to do the match even though it was on the books. Now it’s on the books as a confrontation.”
