2. Snake-bitten: CM Punk meets Steve Austin
In the lead up to WrestleMania 30, many fans were clamoring for all sorts of dream matches to be on the card with arguably none bigger than a bout pitting two of the most beloved anti-heroes in WWE history against each other… but one man was thinking about that long before anyone else.
CM Punk’s longstanding admiration for “The Toughest S.O.B.” is no secret. He cites him as a guy who broke a glass ceiling in the WWE and a game-changer. In fact, during his now legendary “pipebomb” promo, he donned a ‘Stone Cold’ shirt in homage to the WWE legend.
While the two laid promotional groundwork a few times for a potential match-up, nothing ever came of it. In all likelihood, nothing ever will. That being said, fans can always look back to this surreal picture of the two stars and wonder “what if?”
