Bengaluru, March 8: WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin has been challenged to make an appearance at WrestleMania 38 in his hometown of Dallas, Texas.

For weeks now, Raw Superstar Kevin Owens has been on a rant against the residents of Texas which is the home state of Wrestlemania, this year. This week, Owens hosted a KO Show to mention how he has the biggest, most stupendous edition of The KO Show planned for WrestleMania 38.

Owens added that he knows his guest has to be “some lowlife from Texas.” After blasting some of the Texas-billed wrestlers like WWE Hall of Famers JBL, Booker T, and Shawn Michaels, he finally called out Steve Austin to be his guest at the 'Mania KO Show.

The Prizefighter wants to beat the hell out of this person in his home state and give him a Stunner that the world would talk about for years. He also thinks that Austin 3:16 doesn’t have the guts to show up but he proceeded to issue the challenge, yet again before ending his promo.

Following this main event segment on Raw, WWE has now announced that Steve Austin will be responding to Kevin Owens’ WrestleMania 38 invitation at 12 pm ET, tonight. The belief is that Austin will come out of retirement for a match against Kevin Owens at WrestleMania 38 but that is yet to be confirmed.

In more news for Wrestlemania 38, WWE has announced a change to the already announced matchup for WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles.

Over on Raw, Liv Morgan and Rhea Ripley defeated WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Carmella and Queen Zelina Vega in a non-title bout. Per the stipulation of the match, Morgan and Ripley have been added to the WrestleMania match, making it a Triple Threat since Ripley pinned Vega, one of the champions.

Thus the Triple Threat lineup will now feature Morgan and Ripley vs. Sasha Banks and Naomi vs. the champions, Carmella and Vega. WWE has also confirmed that this title match will be held on Night Two of WrestleMania 38, or WrestleMania Sunday.
