What’s the status of the relationship between Stone Cold Steve Austin and CM Punk?
WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin recently sat down with Adrian Hernandez. When asked about his relationship with CM Punk, Austin said they don’t talk a whole lot but considers him to be a really good friend.
“Oh, me and Punk are friends from way back,” Steve Austin said. “There was a picture back from probably in my heyday. And he’s a lot younger than I am, and we got a picture there together, and he’s just a young kid.
“And so I think he was a Stone Cold fan back in the day, and I’m a CM Punk fan. I’m a fan of his work and his promos Jesus Christ he can light somebody up. So we don’t talk a whole lot. We’ll send each other a text every now and then but we’re probably really, really good friends that don’t talk a whole lot and have a lot of mutual respect for each other.”
When asked if CM Punk would be his dream opponent for a potential final match, Austin was way less committal but said he’d be on the list.
“Oh man,” Steve Austin said. “There is so many potential great matches I’d have to draw a blank stare and think for a couple of minutes. But would he be on the list? Of course.”
