No Concrete Plans for WrestleMania 42-Yet
Despite the tantalizing hints, insider Sean Ross Sapp from Fightful Select recently addressed the growing rumors about a potential Stone Cold comeback at WrestleMania 42, scheduled for April 18-19, 2026, in Las Vegas at Allegiant Stadium.
Sapp stated that he has not heard any substantive discussions about Austin returning to in-ring competition for the Las Vegas extravaganza. However, he acknowledged that Austin’s wrestling future remains unpredictable, noting that previous comeback rumors-including speculation about rematches with Kevin Owens and Roman Reigns-had circulated months before they materialized.
“If there were any solid plans for Austin at WrestleMania 42, I likely would have heard whispers by now,” Sapp explained, adding that the timeline for such announcements typically provides advance warning within the industry.
