Earlier this week, WWE Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin revealed on his Steve Austin Show podcast that he won’t be attending WrestleMania 31, but will be watching the show from the Broken Skull Ranch in Texas.
According to sources in WWE, the company was caught off guard by Austin’s announcement. WWE had plans to use Austin this weekend once he arrived in California.
No word yet on why Austin isn’t coming to Santa Clara, but we’ve heard that it’s been a hot topic of conversation amongst WWE staff this week.
