They had a window for Austin vs. Punk and Austin never budged from his retirement.

This roster does not have no bigger then life superstars like Austin, Rock, Hogan, or Cena. Talent yes, but the crossover mainstream love as those guys? Nah...

The only thing I’d drop a full $60 for if it was built right for a legit ppv is Austin/Brock but that window passed 10 years ago. The Punk/Austin buildup and promos would be 100x better than the actual match itself so I’d feel no need to buy it.

When you talk about Hogan/Rock it’s really about icon passing the torch to another icon at wrestlemania, so Cena already had that with Rock before. (Icon in the sense of crossover appeal not icon like Undertaker being a carnie icon with his undefeated streak). To that end, Jawn is beginning his crossover transition out to Hollywood so really the way they built things it would have to be either Brock or Roman versus Cena with a good year long build for it to successful, otherwise it’s just another PPV match.

Is he one of the few wrestlers in history to retire and actually not budge on his decisions?

Of course you have Brock brutalized the top faces all night..Roman, Bryan, Owens, Taker...but then have the Rock's music hit while Taker is getting beat up....crowd would go absolutely next level for that.

Cm Punk is garbage. Has the WOAT elbow drop. Not one of but the absolute WOAT. No way a top guy can have a WOAT manuver. Also Austin punked CM in the interview with jim ross for the video game a few years back. Austin is cutting a promo and CM Punk is sitting there smiling being sarcastic as if Austin wouldn't beat the shyt out of him in ring and probably in life
