A&E announces new ‘Stone Cold Takes on America’ series

A new series starring “Stone Cold” Steve Austin is set to debut on A&E next month.

It was announced today that “Stone Cold Takes on America” will premiere on A&E at 10 p.m. Eastern time on Sunday, April 30. The show will be part of WWE’s Sunday night programming block on A&E. It will air alongside season two of “WWE’s Most Wanted Treasures,” which premieres on April 30 at 9 p.m. Eastern.

“Stone Cold Takes on America” is a 10-part series where Austin “takes viewers on an epic adventure as he redefines what life after years in the ring looks like and experiences everything he missed out on while focused on his career.”

The trailer and full description for the show can be seen below:

For over two decades, ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin gave everything to wrestling, becoming one of the all-time greats. However, his dedication to his career meant sacrificing many of the other experiences life has to offer. In each one-hour episode of ‘Stone Cold Takes on America,’ Austin will hit the road in his RV, accepting challenges from fans that push him out of his comfort zone, and make up for lost time. Through archival footage from classic WWE moments and his own stories, the series weaves together Austin’s old and new life—both filled with incredible feats and his unique point of view—as he celebrates and learns from new experiences how only ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin can. 

Earlier this year, Austin was seen doing the weather on local Nevada television and working at a fast food drive-thru with a camera crew present.

Season two of “Most Wanted Treasures” will feature Booker T, Mick Foley, and Lita “leading the search to reclaim WWE’s most iconic memorabilia and bring these items back home to share with the WWE universe.” Season one of the show was hosted by Top Dolla.

‘WWE’s Most Wanted Treasures’ returns for a second season with WWE Legends Booker T, Mick Foley, and Lita leading the search to reclaim WWE’s most iconic memorabilia and bring these items back home to share with the WWE universe. In each one-hour episode, they travel across the country alongside Legends such as ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin, DX, Kurt Angle, Goldberg, Bret ‘Hitman’ Hart and more to track down items that have left a lasting impact on WWE’s culture and the fans. These priceless, one-of-a-kind collectibles include DX’s Invasion Jeep, Macho Man’s Mega Powers Robe, ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin’s Cement Truck, Goldberg’s WWE Debut Jacket, “Rowdy” Roddy Piper’s Bagpipes and many more.

WWE programming returns to A&E this Sunday (February 19) with new seasons of “Biography: WWE Legends” and “WWE Rivals.” Sunday’s Biography episode will focus on the nWo. The Rivals premiere will spotlight the rivalry between Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant.
