Stone Cold Steve Austin Wins Prospector 250 Desert Race


WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin recently added another victory to his off-road racing resume, winning the Prospector 250 in Nevada. 'The Texas Rattlesnake' competed in the Stock Mod Pro Class, driving a Kawasaki Teryx H2 across the desert for nearly six hours.

Kawasaki USA announced the win on social media, celebrating Austin's breakthrough Pro victory. The company posted photos of the vehicle in action and Austin himself after the race.

Austin's Desert Racing Career

Steve Austin has been competing in desert races since at least 2024, when he entered the Best in the Desert Vegas to Reno race. Last year, he served as grand marshal and competed in the Mint 400, one of the sport's most prestigious events.

The six-time WWE Champion has embraced off-road racing in his post-wrestling career. He previously skipped 3:16 Day celebrations in March to prepare his UTV for racing.

WrestleMania 42 Appearance

With WrestleMania 42 taking place April 18-19 in Las Vegas, Austin is scheduled to participate in WWE World, the fan festival held during WrestleMania weekend. The event returns to Allegiant Stadium, where Austin appeared last year to announce the attendance during night two.

Austin last wrestled at WrestleMania 38 in April 2022, defeating Kevin Owens in a No Holds Barred Match. That bout marked his first match since WrestleMania 19 in 2003.
