Aiden English Says He’d Only Return To WWE As An Announcer

WWE

Former WWE star Matthew Rehwoldt (fka Aiden English) has stated that he’d only return to the company as an announcer, not a wrestler.

Speaking on Table Talk, Rehwoldt noted that he’d love to work with the likes of Michael Cole and Corey Graves, but couldn’t see himself becoming a regular in-ring performer for WWE again.

Rehwoldt said:

“If I were to go back to WWE, I wouldn’t go back as a wrestler. I would not return as a wrestler.

“This sounds pessimistic, but I know how I am perceived as a wrestler given who’s running the show right now. That’s fine, and it’s hard to change that perception. As a broadcaster, I know what I bring to the table so I would gladly love to work with Michael Cole, Corey Graves, Byron Saxton, Vic Joseph, and all those guys on all their shows who do such a phenomenal job.

“So yeah, it would have to be under different circumstances. As of right now, and the world can always change, if I were to go back to WWE, I probably would only go back under an announcing service.”

The star previously noted that he believes that 2022 will be his final year as an in-ring competitor.

Rehwoldt was released from his WWE contract in April 2020, after eight years with the company.

The former NXT Tag Team Champion currently works for IMPACT Wrestling as a regular commentator.
