Foley/Heenan Turn Down WWE Offer, Austin Return Update Submitted by Matthew Boone on Wednesday, January 15, 2003 at 2:52 PM EST
WWE invited Bobby "The Brain" Heenan to the RAW 10th Anniversary for last night. Heenan turned down the invitation for the one-time appearance, believed to be because his health is apparently getting bad once again.
Mick Foley was also invited to the special last night, but he as well choose to decline the invitation. Foley made an appearance at the SuperSake celebrity hockey game this past weekend along with Chris Jericho. Many claim that his no-show speaks volumes of his current relationship with the company.
Steve Austin is being advertised for an autograph session at "World Of Wheels" in Washington, DC. this coming Friday from 12:00-2:00PM. It's interesting to note that Austin has personal appearances booked throughout January, but only three in February, all of which are at the end of the month. He only has one date scheduled for April, and absolutely none for March. This could support the claim that McMahon's comments about Austin last night was the early stages of his return. WrestleMania is on March 30th, and with Austin leaving his schedule open for the entire month could either be further evidence to that claim, or a simple coincidence.
