Now that we’ve seen 2 legends come out of retirement and partially tarnish their legacies, who do you think will be the next currently retired wrestler (if any) to lace up the boots for a Saudi show?
I think there’s a chance for Steve Austin to do a tag match. He can stand on the apron for most of the match, get the hot tag, do a couple of kicks and punches, and then a stunner or two without even taking a bump. Maybe a reunion of the Two Man Power Trip vs. The Brothers of Destruction.
Mick Foley said he would come back for a Saudi pay day, but I don’t think WWE would let him given his condition.
JBL might be another potential candidate, but I don’t think he has the star power or mystique they are looking for to main event a show.
It’s almost like the people in Saudi Arabia haven’t realized that the rest of the world is in the 21st century yet…
So, let’s go with Owen Hart vs. Chris Benoit.
Hogan would absolutely try to do a match and WWE would absolutely justify this as a good idea. Would a doctor clear him?
In two old-timers matches we’ve seen Shawn look awful, Hunter tear a pec, Goldberg knock himself out, and Taker end his career looking sad and old and chasing blood money.
What will they do in 8 years time when this deal is coming to an end? Legends such as Dolph ziggler coming out of retirement to fight the hall of famer Sheamus.
