WWE SmackDown star offers to be Stone Cold Steve Austin's tag team partner (Exclusive)

Is Steve Austin set to make an in-ring comeback?

Jinder Mahal is willing to join forces with Stone Cold Steve Austin if the WWE Hall of Famer wants a new tag team partner.

Austin is scheduled to appear on The KO Show with Kevin Owens on the first night of WrestleMania 38 on Saturday. It is currently unclear if the segment will remain a talk show or whether The Texas Rattlesnake might face the RAW star in an official match.

Mahal spoke to Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Riju Dasgupta about a variety of WWE topics ahead of WrestleMania. Discussing Austin’s return, the former WWE Champion volunteered his services if the legend needs a helping hand:

“Who knows, he might need a tag team partner? I volunteer myself! So yeah, it’ll be an awesome moment and I can’t wait to hear the glass shatter and [see] Stone Cold Steve Austin come out at WrestleMania in Dallas, Texas, his home state,” said Mahal. [2:48-3:03]

Mahal discussed several wrestling topics in the video above, including Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns, The Undertaker’s advice, and his opinion of Hulk Hogan.
