Steve Austin Declines Full-Time WWE Role, Focuses on Ventures Beyond Wrestling

Published on

Wrestling legend Steve Austin recently made it clear that he’s not interested in a full-time role with WWE at the moment. Despite his willingness to discuss business, Austin expressed his reluctance to return to the demanding lifestyle of constant travel that comes with a full-time position in the wrestling industry.

During an appearance on the SI Media Podcast, Austin was asked if he would consider working with WWE as an announcer or manager. His response was a firm no, citing his unwillingness to spend his life back on the road. “I rode that road hard. I loved that lifestyle, I worked my ass off, I put my body on the line, and I ran hard. Now, I’m at a place where I’m still living life,” Austin said.

Austin, who last competed at WrestleMania 38, defeating Kevin Owens in an impromptu match, and stunning Vince McMahon, Austin Theory, and Pat McAfee on the second night, is currently involved in various ventures. He is in the beer business with three beers under El Segundo Brewing Company, works with Kawasaki Motorsports, and has other private ventures. He expressed his contentment with his current lifestyle and his reluctance to return to the road.
