He mentioned how Brock Lesnar attacked him on RAW a week before and dubbed Austin as a lousy referee. He also stated that it wouldn't surprise him if Goldberg and Lesnar got together at WrestleMania and beat Austin down.

McMahon then ordered Austin to get on his ATV and leave the arena immediately. Austin responded by chasing McMahon on his ATV and threatening to run him over in the backstage area. McMahon pleaded to Austin to spare him, but The Rattlesnake wasn't in the mood to hear anything.
He proceeded to drive the ATV up on McMahon's limo, forcing the boss to leave the arena himself moments later. McMahon's wish didn't come true at WrestleMania, and it was Austin who hit Stunners on both Lesnar and Goldberg at Madison Square Garden.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
