CM Punk makes it clear he wants to face Austin

[Cue]

GQ: Is that parallel to Austin why you wore a Stone Cold Steve Austin T-shirt when you were delivering that promo?

C.M. Punk: I do a lot of weird little things like that because people talk about it. I don't think it's any secret; I think the biggest match any wrestling company can do right now is C.M. Punk vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin. I've thought that since I was 15. I'm straight edge. I don't drink. I don't do drugs. I don't smoke. And that is the perfect protagonist or antagonist to Stone Cold Steve Austin, depending on how you want to spin it. It writes itself. You would have to try really, really hard to f*** that one up. The idea of being on television is to wear your T-shirt so people see it and maybe buy it. I had gone out previously in the night and wrestled. You throw your T-shirt on the ground, and I don't know what the hell happens to it after that. I came to the back, and I was looking for another T-shirt. I sent somebody to go and get one, and they came back with a XXL. I was like, "I'm going to be swimming in this thing." And it's always creepy when you're wearing wrestling trunks with a shirt because it doesn't look like you're wearing any pants. I had a Stone Cold Steve Austin shirt in my bag, and it fit me. I chuckled to myself and put it on. Am I planting seeds? I don't know. I can't guarantee to anybody that that match is going to happen. Do I want it to happen? Absolutely. [/quote]
This is gonna be epic! Make it happen, WWE!

I want to see this happen so bad.

It would definitely be some great fricken' television.

 

[Blue Warrior]

It would maybe not be the best match of all time, because Austin's a lil' out of shape right now, but it would draw a billion viewers

I think he's in excellent shape, I hope I'm in half as good of shape as he is when I'm that age.

We should all be so lucky.

 

[Blue Warrior]

Yeah, but you must admit he's not in the shape to pull a 5 star match.... But it would definitely be a great match considering Austin still has it.

 

[Deleted User]

For the last few years of his career he wasn't really in any shape, but his natural charisma carried him through.

With good timing and storytelling, it'll definitely be a fantastic match, especially with a guy like CM to help carry the load.

Watch WM19, again, Austin couldn't do squat in that match, but the story carried it home.

You should make an Austin vs Punk sig!
