Rattlesnake's return By Zack Zeigler Written: March 5, 2007Monday night on Raw, the familiar sound of breaking glass that signals "Stone Cold" Steve Austin’s entrance reverberated through the speakers of the sold-out US Airways Center in Phoenix. As Austin descended toward the ring amid a booming applause that shook the arena walls, the question of who would be the special guest referee at WrestleMania 23’s Battle of the Billionaires was definitively answered. Stone Cold realizes he’s been away from a WWE ring for quite some time. Regardless, if anyone believes that an extended absence is enough to take the venom out of the Texas Rattlesnake, Austin dares them to think again. In fact, the former WWE Champion told WWE.com that he will emphasize his point live and in person on ECW from Tucson (10/9 CT tonight on Sci Fi), where he plans to raise hell and toss back a few—beers and ECW Superstars, if need be.
It’s anticipated that the mudhole-stompin’ Texan will show up to reveal his views on proper officiating. But given his history with Mr. McMahon, can Austin call the Battle of the Billionaires down the middle? Will past bias cloud the Rattlesnake’s judgment? Expect some “stunning” answers when Stone Cold visits the Land of Extreme tonight on ECW on Sci Fi.

Expect the ratings to skyrocket tonight. Plus nice that nothing is mentioned about the rest of the show in this preview. Way to bury the whole roster WWE!

If I was booking tonight's show, here's what would happen. I would steal something that TNA did awhile ago.
Vince McMahon is seen looking through the corridors for Austin. He then enters a room and sees Steve Austin and The Sandman playing chess. Austin beats Sandman at chess.
Austin: Good game you bastard.
Sandman then downs a beer and smashes it over his head.
Sandman: Let's play again.
Austin: Stop wasting the beer!
Then Vince interupts and they go on with it. Basically, they have to have something with Austin and Sandman tonight.

I don't know how, but I posted an ECW thread with a similar title without noticing yours. Freaky.

I wonder if they even mention Austin's past in ECW. He was there between WCW and WWE and, was at the first ONS but, it wouldn't be unlike them to say that this is Austin's first time in ECW either.
They could have the New Breed, who are McMahon's vision of ECW, attack Austin, an ECW original and McMahon enemy, only to be saved by the Originals setting up that Wrestlemania match?

That would be fun. As such, expect Sandman to not appear.

I only hope that Austin confronts the New Breed.
Austin: So...you are this Thorn I've been hearing about. You go to bite clubs with your freaky bat chick there.
Thorn:....yes.
Austin: What?
Thorn...I'm not falling for this.
Austin: What?
Striker: Mister Austin, this is absurd.
*Stunner to Striker*
Austin: You may be a disgraced New York teacher, but I hate all teachers.
Thorn: What?
*Austin stares at Thorn*

I like how the preview makes no mention of the RVD/Burke match that was announced on Raw.

There are further speculations on whether or not the fans will drink beer tonight.
