WWE Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin has been confirmed for WWE World during WrestleMania 41 weekend in Las Vegas. The Texas Rattlesnake will appear at the fan experience on April 19 and 20.

The Fanatics Event Twitter account announced the news, revealing that Austin will be at the Las Vegas Convention Center for the two-day event. Fans will have opportunities to purchase tickets for autographs and photo ops.

OH HELL YEAH! 🔥 It’s only fitting we drop this announcement today. “STONE COLD” STEVE AUSTIN 🍺 is headed to WWE World this April 19 & 20. Tickets to purchase autographs and photo ops will be on sale Tuesday at 11AM ET.

Ticket sales for the Austin meet-and-greet will begin Tuesday at 11 AM ET.

WWE attempted to involve Austin in WrestleMania 40 weekend last year, but he did not appear at the premium live event.

Cody Rhodes previously extended an invitation to Austin for WrestleMania 41. However, Austin himself stated he has not discussed any appearance at the Showcase of the Immortals with WWE officials.

Austin’s current confirmation only covers the WWE World fan experience event. There has been no announcement regarding any potential role for him at WrestleMania 41 itself.

Montez Ford has responded to the outpouring of support following the Street Profits’ WWE Tag Team Championship victory on SmackDown. Ford and Angelo Dawkins defeated Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa on the March 14 episode to claim the titles.

The championship victory marks the first time in four years that the Street Profits have held gold in WWE. Their win has generated significant positive reaction across social media.

Ford shared his appreciation through a message on Twitter, expressing gratitude to fans for supporting their journey back to championship status.

Very overwhelmed by the love, appreciation, text messages, calls, videos from everyone. It means a lot to mean so much to many people.

Thanks for being with us for the entire 4+year journey of getting our titles back. We celebrating all week till the wheels fall off.

Thank you GOD & thank you to the entire fanbase. God Bless yall & job’s just starting. -Tez.

The Street Profits defeated Gargano and Ciampa in a hard-fought contest on SmackDown, ending their opponents’ championship reign. With this victory, Ford and Dawkins add another title run to their WWE resume.

WWE has not yet announced which teams might step up to challenge the new champions for their first title defense.

Lilian Garcia announced she will no longer serve as the ring announcer for Friday Night SmackDown. She shared the news through her Instagram following the conclusion of the March 14 broadcast from Barcelona, Spain.

Garcia revealed that while stepping away from weekly SmackDown duties, she will remain with WWE in multiple capacities. Her new role includes handling ring announcing for all Saturday Night’s Main Event specials, which occur quarterly on NBC and Peacock.

The veteran announcer shared details about her transition in an Instagram post after her final SmackDown appearance.

Just finished announcing SmackDown in Barcelona, Spain and it was absolutely incredible!! Gracias por todo el amor España! ❤️ But now I have some news that this was my last show as the full-time SmackDown announcer. A new era is upon us BUT I will still be with the company as I will be announcing for all @wwe Saturday Night’s Main Event shows on @nbc & @peacock , singing at certain special events, AND currently working on other show ideas with WWE! 😉 WWE is my home so stay tuned as a new chapter begins… I invite all of you to continue this journey with me as we share it together!! 📖🤸🏼‍♀️ Bottom line, thank you and I love you dearly!!!! 💙🥰

Garcia originally returned to WWE on the October 21 episode of Raw, resuming her role as a ring announcer. She subsequently moved to the SmackDown brand earlier this year before this recent change in responsibilities.

WWE has yet to announce who will replace Garcia on the Friday night program. Alicia Taylor currently serves as Raw’s ring announcer, while Mike Rome handles announcing duties for NXT.

The announcing roles have been fluid recently, with Garcia filling in for Rome on NXT and Rome appearing on Raw before returning to NXT the following night.

This change represents another adjustment to WWE’s broadcast team, though Garcia will continue to maintain a presence with the company through her new specialized role.
