A released WWE star has admitted that he would “love” to return to the company in the future, expressing that his first run only “scratched the surface” of what he’s capable of.
In September 2023, Elias was one of 20 WWE stars to be cut from their contract, putting an end to his nine-year stint in the company.
Since his departure the former four-time WWE 24/7 Champion has been busy on the independent scene, competing under the name Elijah for promotion’s such as NWA and The Wrestling Revolver among others.
Elijah has yet to re-sign with another company however, and during a recent virtual signing with K&S Wrestlefest he was asked for his thoughts on his WWE tenure and a potential return to the company.
Reflecting on his time in WWE, Elijah had positive words for his experience but felt that he was capable of more as Elias:
“I thought it was awesome, a lot of great stuff. I had a lot of incredible, very memorable moments for me personally and probably for a lot of people. I loved it.
“Elias can and could and should do so much more in WWE. They only scratched the surface with my capabilities. I had a lot of great moments, some incredible guys to go up against.”
Addressing a potential return, Elijah said:
“I’d love that. Look, you see how the business works by now. You could be gone, Carlito was gone for ten years, look at Drew [McIntyre].
“These things happen, for sure. Everybody has their own little story. I’m not writing it off. It’s not an immediate, man, I gotta do that. But if the opportunities come up, sure, we’ll see.”
There have been no reports suggesting WWE are interested in re-signing Elijah to the company at this time, but we will provide updates if anything changes.
