Stone Cold's in-ring return was nothing short of miraculous
Over the years, a long list of in-ring legends have broken their retirement for one last hurrah. Austin made it a point to keep his retirement intact all these years, and refused to return on several occasions.
It all changed at WrestleMania 38 when he appeared on The KO Show. The segment headlined WrestleMania Night One and fans couldn't believe their eyes when Kevin Owens challenged Austin to a match.
A referee was called to officiate the match and the two stars kicked off a "No Holds Barred" match. A vicious Stunner ended Owens to a loud pop from the fans in attendance, and Austin celebrated the victory with a bunch of beer cans.

On Night Two, Vince McMahon defeated Pat McAfee in an impromptu match and kicked off a celebration with Austin Theory. To the WWE Chairman's horror, Austin's music hit and out came the WWE legend. He hit Stunners on everyone in his path, including McMahon himself. The boss massively botched the sell and it made for quite an amusing visual.
Austin's last match before WrestleMania 38 was way back in 2003. He lost to The Rock at WrestleMania 19, in what was their third outing at The Show of Shows. His big return was nothing short of a treat for his longtime fans who wanted him to have his big farewell moment.
