I do vaguely recall that "second fiddle" comment, but I don't think it was about Jealousy so much as it's just a business decision. Austin is all about drawing the most money possible.

Having Rock and Austin on the card (and not face each other) is a bit of a waste.

the fact is austin made himself second fiddle to the rock and hogan by doing all those lame "authority figure/gm" roles, he deluded himself as anything special by being on the show doing the same thing for years and years, plus he always had to one up the active guys on the roster and beat them up, he only took one l and that was to brock, which led to him walking out like a bytch

austin's return dont really mean shyt to be honest, big deal he'll come back with his plain black t-shirt, his jorts, his kneebraces, stun somebody who can never get him back and drink a beer on the turnbuckle, that shyt got played out by 2000

This is pretty much it. With his reality Show and his movie filming schedule his time pretty much spoken for already. He'd be more than willing to do something for them if his schedule allows it and if the idea is worthwhile. He has active career outside of WWE and he cant drop everything just show at the drop of a hat like Foley or Flair. He covered this on a episode of his podcast.

Basically. He made it perfectly clear when answering a fans question as to why he wasn't on 'Old School Raw' that due to his schedule, he cannot be called upon short notice to make an appearance in general.

He was 100% right on walking out on a clean pinfall to brock lesnar in a fukking king of the ring qualifying match on raw with no buildup

Sort of agree. Dude had every right to nix the idea but fukk just up and leaving like that with no notice, came across as a total bytch move to me :manny:

Austin doesn't want to play second fiddle and he shouldn't have to, I'm a huge Rock stan but let's be real, this is one of, if not the GOAT we are talking about right here

when Austin does come back, if he does, he should be in the highest profile match or whatever the fukk he does should be top of the card, period. Having him return for some bullshyt completely defeats the whole purpose since he's been gone for almost a decade now

again you should realize this isn't 1998 anymore, he isn't huge draw like he used to be.

Don't know about second fiddle but I do know that Austin has stated on Twitter and in interviews that he's not fond of the product right now. He probably saw how disappointing the Rock's return was and that sealed it for him and was like ":smh: EH-EH!" .

just to clear the air..reason why he missed the raw 1,000 was he had surgery and didnt want to be on tv with crutches
RAW 1,000 And Why Stone Cold Steve Austin Wasn’t There – Steve Austin, Broken Skull Ranch

and the reason he wasnt on wrestlemania was because he was busy filming grown ups 2 since his scenes were dealyed due to that surgery during the buildup and was filming redneck island in mexico during wrestle mania
