OK here is the latest on the Austin-WWE fiasco. Austin attended last night's SmackDown! tapings in his home town (San Antonio, TX), but we do not have any more on that right now.
There has also been some scoop released on the new deal both parties are negotiating toward. Apparently, WWE want the rights to the "Stone Cold" name so if Austin branches into anything like Hollywood, then WWE will also benefit, much like they are doing with the Rock.
This is said to be what is causing the tension between Austin's new lawyer and Vince McMahon. Austin's lawyer wants to keep the WWE deal and potential outside projects completely separate.
