Unfortunate update following Stone Cold Steve Austin botch at WrestleMania 41 - Reports

There has been an update regarding Stone Cold Steve Austin's botch at WWE WrestleMania 41. The Rattlesnake has not competed in a match since his victory over Kevin Owens at WrestleMania 38.

During a recent edition of Fightful Select Q&A, Sean Ross Sapp discussed Stone Cold Steve Austin smashing into the barricade with his ATV at The Show of Shows. The crash caused a fan in attendance to be knocked to the ground after the Hall of Famer struck the barricade.

Sapp noted that the company was likely keeping the situation quiet and suggested that fans might not hear about it again unless a lawsuit is filed. Unfortunately for the fan in question, the wrestling insider added that if the company took care of the situation, there would likely be a non-disclosure agreement in place.

“I was told that we would likely not hear anything about that again unless a lawsuit is filed. Assuming WWE took care of the situation, it would almost certainly come with a non-disclosure. If they provided her any sort of monetary or benefit as a result of that situation, they almost certainly would have mandated an NDA," he said. [H/T: Ringside News]

Stone Cold Steve Austin and Bret Hart's iconic match from WrestleMania 13 was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year as an Immortal Moment.
