The incredible and absolutely wild main event of Night Two of WrestleMania 40 simply had it all.
Well almost.
Despite being a match that saw John Cena, The Rock and The Undertaker interfere in the Bloodline Rules madness, the lack of one particular individual during Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns’ WWE Championship showdown left some feeling a little disappointed.
Not enough to ruin the night, of course. But adding a certain glass breaker and ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin to that wacky contest would have turned an already fantastic show closer into a true GOAT contender.
Annoyingly, WWE was also reported to be in secret talks to bring in ‘The Texas Rattlesnake’ for the epic conclusion to Night Two, and the company incredibly squandered the opportunity to add some Austin to the night because they couldn’t reach a financial agreement. according to the icon.
Watching ‘The Deadman’ chokeslam ‘The Final Boss’ to hell after the sound of his legendary gong hit was a great substitute, sure. But many were clearly hoping to see ‘Stone Cold’ in Philadelphia.
Can you imagine the sound Austin and Rocky would have heard for the last time before Cody finished his story?
What could have been, huh?
