Steve Austin Update; Latest On A Possible Dream Match Against CM Punk At Wrestlemania

maybe you need to go back and watch SCSA matches with Brett Hart…they also didn't call him The Ringmaster for no reason when he first debuted in WWE, sure the later half of his career he was a brawler , but Austin has tech ability.

Well ‘dream matches’ are dubbed so for various reasons. Hogan-Rock or Rock-Cena for example were called for the stardom of both parties and not necessarily for in-ring athleticism. If Taker-Sting ever squares off it would be another dream match- one because these got big in rival promotions, were both extremely respected figures, both at least at some points had mystique in their gimmick and because so many people have drooled in fantasy of their build up and encounter already that its a dream match irrespective of how it turns out in the ring.

Now for Austin-Punk, both ascended up the ladder with ‘shoot’ promos and anti-establishment attitude and have great charisma and promo-cutting abilities. Yet the contrast as you said is one being beer-holic and the other straightedge. And while Austin was a brawler on his prime, he did put decent technical matches at the beginning of his career. Also the level of story-telling that he and Bret executed at WM 13 is unparalleled. And even if the Punk-Austin confrontation is a brawl, Punk can still manage it as evidenced in Punk-HHH in NOC 2011 (Although Austin’s fitness will be a question). From any angle you see it, its a dram feud where the great build up eventually culminates into a dream match.
