WWE Rumors on Stone Cold, Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, McIntyre, Rollins, Lesnar, Breakker & LA Knight WWE is reportedly planning to honor the legacy of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin on 3:16 Day, which falls on March 16 and marks the anniversary of Austin’s legendary career. The event, which will take place on the upcoming Raw episode in San Antonio, Texas, is expected to feature a special tribute to the Hall of Famer. While sources indicate WWE is "very hopeful" Austin will appear, there is no confirmation he has been officially invited. The 61-year-old Austin, who last appeared on Raw during the 2020 3:16 Day celebration amid the pandemic, made a triumphant return to in-ring action at WrestleMania 38 in 2023, defeating Kevin Owens in a surprise main event. He also participated in WrestleMania 41 last year, driving an ATV to the ring and announcing attendance figures. His potential return for 3:16 Day could energize the show, given his enduring popularity with fans. Cody Rhodes is set to defend his WWE Championship against Randy Orton at WrestleMania 42 after a recent storyline involving Drew McIntyre. Rhodes won the title on SmackDown by defeating McIntyre, who had interfered in a previous match at Elimination Chamber. Originally, the WWE Championship match was planned as a Hell in a Cell match between Rhodes and McIntyre, but the interference led to a new storyline. McIntyre will now face Rhodes again at WrestleMania, with the match likely being a singles contest. WWE sources suggest there is no significant backlash within the company over the decision to crown Rhodes as champion before WrestleMania, citing his status as a top draw. The rivalry between Rhodes and McIntyre appears to be concluding, paving the way for a high-stakes matchup against Orton, a former ally and stablemate.#stone_cold_steve_austin #cody_rhodes #randy_orton #drew_mctiire #bron_breakker
