Stone Cold Steve Austin had an amazing No Hold Barred match at WrestleMania 38 against Kevin Owens. The 57-year-old WWE Hall of Famer also took many bumps as he battled ‘The Prizefighter’ all over the arena.

As he returned after 19 years and became the oldest man to win in the WrestleMania main event, ‘The Rattlesnake’ may have had a little body pain after the match.

Famous WWE commentator Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler shared a picture of him with Austin backstage on his Twitter account. He also provided fans with a message from The Rattlesnake.

“Steve said he thought of me during his Wrestlemania match, saying, “Hotdamn! Now I know why King still wrestles so much…it’s still fun!””

72-year-old Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler, a contracted commentator with WWE, is still an active wrestler on the independent circuit. His last match was in March 2022 against Scott Steiner at USA Pro 29th Anniversary Show.

Jerry Lawler has won over 150+ Heavyweight Championships all over the independent circuit and still wins.
