Sanchez has over six years of pro-wrestling news writing experience, covering the biggest news stories in WWE, NXT, AEW, TNA Wrestling and more. He has personally interviewed a number of top stars, producing exclusive content with the likes of AEW's Swerve Strickland and WWE's Nick Aldis.

Hall of Famer JBL has commented on the possibility of him returning to the WWE commentary team full-time.

The former WWE Champion established himself as an unpredictable force in 2024, making surprise appearances for the likes of TNA Wrestling, AAA and MLW.

Following his previous stint as a WWE commentator, JBL has revealed that if there was a spot for him, he would be interested in returning to the company’s commentary team.

Noting that he doesn’t believe there’s a spot behind the WWE commentary desk for him right now, JBL stated the following on Something To Wrestle:

“Of course I’d be interested, but there’s not a spot available, and I don’t see one coming open. You have great commentators right now.

“I think Pat McAfee does a great job. I think Wade does a great job. I think Booker is doing a great job. Corey, I love those guys, and you’ve got wonderful guys who are filling the (WWE) roles incredibly well, better than I could do so there’s no role available.

“Would I enjoy it? Of course I would. Yeah, I had a lot of fun being around the boys and a lot of fun working with Michael, but there’s no spot available, and so there’s no future in a commentary role.”
