How Did Stone Cold Steve Austin Break Sylvester Stallone’s Neck?

Apart from entertaining the pro wrestling fans inside the squared circle, the Texas Rattlesnake, Stone Cold Steve Austin, appeared in several movies in Hollywood. During his acting career, Austin worked with several big names of the industry and Sylvester Stallone is one of his former co-stars.

Austin and Stallone appeared together in the movie ‘The Expendables’ in 2010. Sylvester Stallone played a major role in that film and was also the director of the movie.

But unfortunately, Stallone injured himself while filming a fighting scene for the movie with the WWE Hall of Famer.

The veteran actor suffered a hairline fracture in his neck and had to undergo a very serious operation afterwards. He also got a metal plate inserted in his neck following the unfortunate accident on the sets of ‘The Expendables’.

He told FHM magazine, “Actually, my fight with Stone Cold Steve Austin was so vicious that I ended up getting a hairline fracture in my neck. I’m not joking. I haven’t told anyone this, but I had to have a very serious operation afterwards. I now have a metal plate in my neck.” (h/t: The Guardian)

But it was not the first time that the veteran actor had suffered an injury while filming. Previously, while filming for Rocky IV, he suffered an injury as well. Speaking of Austin, there are rumors about him returning to WWE at WrestleMania 38.

Will Steve Austin appear at WrestleMania 38?

WrestleMania 38 will take place in Dallas, Texas. Thus, fans are hopeful that Austin will appear at WrestleMania since it will be held in his home state. The Texas Rattlesnake had made several sporadic appearances in the past, but has not been seen on television for the WWE in a long time.

According to various sources, WWE is reported to be interesting in making Austin a meaningful part of WrestleMania 38.

However, it will not be in a wrestling role. Austin retired from in-ring action in 2003 because of multiple injuries. But even a small cameo at WrestleMania 38 will certainly bring a smile to the face of several WWE fans.
