The Rated R CMStar
Guest
WWE quietly announced today on their website that WWE Hall of Famer Steve Austin will guest-host the March 15 episode of WWE Raw, which is two weeks before WrestleMania 26.
The Mar. 15 episode will air from San Diego, Calif., which is about 125 miles away from where Austin lives in the Los Angeles area.
WWE featured Austin in video packages multiple times during tonight's WWE Raw episode to hint at Austin being a future guest host.
Austin was featured in historical video recaps of WrestleMania 14, which is when Austin won his first WWE Title, as part of the Shawn Michaels vs. Mike Tyson storyline that played out on tonight's Raw.
WWE also aired a Hall of Fame video package on Raw to promote ticket sales for the 2010 Hall of Fame. The video focused heavily on Austin being the "main event inductee" at last year's Hall of Fame ceremony in Austin's home state of Texas.
Well, at least we'll get Austin. It's hard to believe it has been almost an entire year since we saw him.
