During an interview with Paul Heyman on the Steve Austin show podcast, Austin admitted that he would be tempted to return to WWE for a match against Brock Lesnar.
The two were discussing how Brock has not reached his potential as a wrestler yet, and when Heyman brought up the idea of Austin returning to face Brock, Austin said he would have to pause and continue that conversation off the air. Heyman joked that the news would be the headline coming out of the show.
Obviously Austin remains tremendously popular, has a good relationship with WWE, just appeared at WrestleMania 30, and always seems to leave the door slightly open for one more match. In the past, he has teased that he would return if the money and situation is right. Of course, Austin is also 49 years old and it remains a question if he can physically handle a return given his medical history.
Here is what Heyman tweeted:

Part two of the interview was released on the “Steve Austin Unleashed” version of the show yesterday. Here’s an official description: “WWE’s Paul Heyman aka Paul E. Dangerously talks to Steve about the demise of the ECW, the WWE conference call that got him fired, the craziest workers in the business, the Heyman Hustle, think tanks, and Vince McMahon’s sneezing issues.”
