Jade Cargill, the current WWE Women’s Champion, is also excited for the Hall of Fame festivities. She told Pak Gazette Digital that she was a big fan of WWE’s Attitude Era and was hoping to meet “Stone Cold” Steve Austin.
“I hope he’s there because I want to meet him,” he told Pak Gazette Digital in a recent interview. “He’s one of those people, other than Paul Heyman and Booker T, Paul Heyman I thought I had to meet him. How did this guy survive so long? He’s larger than life. He’s a natural with that. I have to meet him, I have to take a picture with him, talk to him, I have to do that.

“And Stone Cold is the other person. I really hope he’s there in the Hall of Fame. He was there last year. But I couldn’t like him, there were so many people crowding him. And just seeing Stephanie (McMahon) get her flowers is something unique. I love that for her.”
Austin was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2009 as a wrestler. Last year, he was included as part of the immortal moment wing. His match with Bret Hart at WrestleMania 13 was included last year. He is one of eight wrestlers to be in the Hall of Fame multiple times.
