Stone Cold Steve Austin was apparently “relieved” following his performance at WrestleMania 38 in a match against Kevin Owens.
Austin’s longtime friend Jim Ross recently discussed his appearance and match at the show on his Grilling JR podcast.
“I wasn’t gonna let the WrestleMania event pass by without checking out Stone Cold” Jim Ross began on the podcast.
“He and I talked going into that thing, and we communicated on Saturday after the show. He seemed to be real happy and almost relieved that he pulled it off.
“Steve and Kevin Owens deserve a hell of a lot of credit for what they did. To show you what kind of ballplayer Austin is, he hadn’t been on the field in 19 years. He didn’t look like he missed a step” the former WWE commentator added.

“They kept the match within their lane. I thought that was really smart how they strategized and laid out that much.
“It was just absolutely a masterpiece in my view. Kevin Owens deserves a lot of credit as well. You have to have a dancing partner to make these things work, and Steve had a great dancing partner” Jim Ross concluded.
