Stone Cold Steve Austin's return to WWE 2010 - Will he stun Raw?


With the impending guest host job coming up by WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin, speculation can begin as to just what Austin will contribute to Monday's show. It's definitely one to look forward, unlike the past three weeks which have seen hosts giving us magic tricks, bull riding contests and talk show segments gone bad. Austin's capable of doing plenty of damage within the 2 plus hour time slot for USA on Monday. So what will go down? Will Austin unleash the stunner?

Wrestlemania 26 is just two weeks away, and the buildup continues for various matches. One such match is Vince McMahon v Bret Hart, the match that is 12 years in the making. Austin will officiate the official contract signing and you have to wonder if he's going to get further involved. Since he's yet to be announced as part of Wrestlemania, but still could become part, it makes sense something's coming from the Rattlesnake. However, with WM26 so close, it seems hard to believe he'd hit a Stone Cold Stunner on Vince McMahon, because that gives fans a payoff before Bret Hart gets his hands on Vince.

It's possible he could hit the Stunner on both Bret and Vince, but that might look bad for Austin to stun an already injured Hitman. Then again, it didn't stop Undertaker from applying the Hells Gate submission hold on JTG in the ring on this past Friday's Smackdown. So we very well could see Austin stun both guys. We could also see him stun a guy not even involved in WM26, but at this point with 9 guys in the ladder match, there's not many options. I guess a stunner on Jillian Hall could go down for the fans' entertainment.

At the very least, I'm expecting Austin is added to the Vince-Bret Wrestlemania match as the "impartial" special guest referee. He'll likely cite the fact that in the past weeks Vince has been playing dirty and that he knows how the Chairman can be. Stone Cold and Bret Hart also have history in the ring. Austin will use his power as Raw guest host to appoint himself the ref for the WM26 match, perhaps adding more allure to the match and card. It seems a bit late to introduce a star of Austin's caliber into WM26, but as they say better late then never?
