Regarding TNA wrestler Shark Boy's parody of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Austin had this to say in an article in today's Miami Herald: "I've heard about it. It doesn't anger me. If a guy is able to make a living on a rip-off, a spoof, making fun of me, whatever. I'm still with WWE. More power to him." Austin also notes that he probably won't be involved at WrestleMania 24. Austin said, "There was a pitch thrown at me for WrestleMania [24 in Orlando], but I turned it down. I'd like to go to the Hall of Fame and see the guys get inducted. They got enough talent in WWE that they don't need me for WrestleMania, and it's not my desire to go back into the ring."

That's how I figured he'd react to Sharkboy. I mean what is he going to say that he's pissed and come off as whiny? Not really his style plus since this isn't a situation where TNA is a hard core rival or the WWE it makes it even less important to him.

As far as Mania goes, I'm not overally disapointed, as he said he doesn't really need to be there. However John Cena also said he wouldn't be ready in time for WM, so I wouldn't rule Stone Cold out yet, although I have no idea what they'd do with him. Seems like recently the WWE is trying to keep their stuff under wraps more than usual.
