The iconic "Stone Cold" Steve Austin returns to WrestleRant Radio to shoot the breeze with Graham "GSM" Matthews about his new Stone Cold Takes on America show on A&E, life after wrestling, his line of beer, staying busy and why he didn't compete at WrestleMania 39, what it would have entailed exactly, if he's leaving the door open for another match, thoughts on LA Knight, how to combat the "What?" chant, and more!
GSM and RJ Marceau have plenty to discuss regarding "Superstar" Billy Graham's passing, the official announcement of AEW Collision on Saturday nights, the rumored brand split for it and who is advertised to appear, CM Punk's latest holdup with AEW and if he'll actually return in time for the show's premiere, the finals of the World Heavyweight Championship Tournament set for Night of Champions and if there's a chance AJ Styles could win, Mustafa Ali becoming number one contender to the Intercontinental Championship on Monday's Raw, Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa challenging Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship and whether it's the right or wrong call, where the Bloodline storyline could be headed and if Cody Rhodes will factor in at all, the Becky Lynch vs. Trish Stratus feud, and the return of Ronda Rousey falling flat.
