WrestleMania 41 will take place in Las Vegas, Nevada, next year. Stone Cold Steve Austin has given a major tease about the event.
Stone Cold is one of the biggest stars of the attitude era. His edgy and arrogant character quickly got over with the fans. Austin was well-known for his long-standing feud with Vince McMahon, which resonated with the fans.
Sadly, Austin's in-ring career came to an end due to his ongoing injuries. For many years after his retirement, he made sporadic appearances on WWE television to deliver stunners to other stars. However, he would make his in-ring return for a one-off match against Kevin Owens at WrestleMania 38.
With The Rock's involvement at WrestleMania 40, many fans expected him to return against and confront his long-time nemesis, but that never happened. However, WrestleMania 41 is set to take place in Las Vegas, Nevada where Austin is currently residing.
