Stone Cold Steve Austin opens up about his only regret during his WWE WrestleMania 38 match

Stone Cold Steve Austin returned to in-ring competition after around two decades at WrestleMania 38. He defeated former WWE Universal Champion Kevin Owens in a No Holds Barred Match.

During a recent interview with The Takedown on SI, the veteran spoke about his match against The Prizefighter on The Grandest Stage of Them All. Austin noted that although the crowd was very loud, he regretted not savoring the moment and working the fans in attendance even more:

"And when I went out there, I think I couldn't hear the crowd as much as I wanted to. When I watched it back, the crowd was into it. It was very, very loud, yes, but I wish I would have taken more time, savored more moments, and worked the people a little bit more than I did. I think I was in a space of not knowing what I had and trying to be a little too frantic. I could have slowed down drastically and made that better. And I wish that I would have. I haven't told too many people that, but I told you," said Austin. [H/T: SI]
