Stone Cold Steve Austin on his WrestleMania 38 return
Last year, fans got to witness the Texas Rattlesnake competing in a WWE ring once again after 19 years. He faced off against Kevin Owens at WrestleMania 38 in a No Holds Barred match.
Speaking with Justin Dhillon of The Wrestling Classic, the Hall of Famer was quick to compliment his WrestleMania 38 opponent.
"They presented a storyline or a short angle with Kevin Owens, who I absolutely love, who is golden on the mic and awesome in the ring.

I love Kevin Owens, and I was happy to share the ring with him," Austin stated. [H/T: WrestlingNews.co]
