The 'Bloodline Rules' stipulation of Sunday's WrestleMania 40 main event between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns allowed for several exciting surprise appearances. The jam-packed Lincoln Financial Field erupted when John Cena and the Undertaker made surprises appearances to assist the American Nightmare.
Many fans were expecting to hear the infamous 'glass shatter' and see Stone Cold Steve Austin hit the ring for one more confrontation with his greatest rival, The Rock. As it turns out, WWE did negotiate with Austin regarding this exact scenario. Unfortunately, the two sides could not come to a financial agreement, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
In the months leading up to wrestling's biggest weekend of the year, Austin was addressed the possibility of another WrestleMania appearance. He kept some hopes alive by saying "never say never," but now we know why it didn't materialize.

Steve Austin shocked the wrestling world by coming out of retirement at WrestleMania 38 (2022) and competing in his first match in 19 years.
It started with Kevin Owens calling out Stone Cold and inviting him to appear on the KO Show at WrestleMania 38. Austin accepted, but when he showed up for a talk, Owens had other plans in mind. An impromptu No Holds Barred match broke out and Austin got to show it's still a very bad idea to cross him.
Cody Rhodes defeated Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship in a match contested under 'Bloodline rules.' The specific rules were not laid out in person, but it was essentially a no-disqualification match.
The relaxed rules allowed for plenty of outside interference, with members of the Bloodline backing Reigns, and John Cena, The Undertaker and Seth Rollins evening the odds.
In the end, Rhodes 'finished his story' and ended the Tribal Chief's historic championship reign at 1,316 days.
