Austin put that notion to rest this week on his podcast, which you can check out at this link, and he noted that despite the trademark issues he and WWE remain on good terms.
Austin said he spoke with a WWE lawyer, and was told there were some trademark issues WWE needed to protect, and they did, and there are no hard feelings on Austin’s end.
Austin also said there are many “great things” to come from he and WWE but didn’t go into detail, telling fans to “stay tuned.”
