Former WWE star Heath Slater has stated that he’d be interested in returning for the 2024 Royal Rumble, confirming that he’s a free agent.
With Heath’s IMPACT contract expiring in October, many fans have been wondering about the former WWE Tag Team Champion’s next move.
Speaking on Rewind Recap Live, Heath noted that he’s currently having fun.
Teasing a Royal Rumble appearance when asked what people can expect from him, Heath said:
“(Number) 22 in the (Royal) Rumble and I’m literally just having fun at the moment. Being real, it was one of those things where, you know, after WWE, I was with IMPACT for two years, nearly three years because I was injured for a year.
“So, it was one of those things where I was with them but now, when you were with IMPACT, they take up a lot of dates that you could have took independent bookings to. But then again, they would give you bookings also to where you could have other bookings too.
“So it’s like now, I’m booked up till like March, the first weekend in March. So, it’s looking alright, you know, at the moment. But no, I’m literally at the moment to where I’m having fun, I’m enjoying family time, I’m working the weekends so, I’m in the smooth sailing phase at the moment.
“But then again, I put nearly 16 years going strong, steady every damn day of my damn life to now just relaxing and chilling for a bit… I’m relaxing and chilling for a bit for sure.
Heath went on to explain that he’d definitely be up for appearing in the upcoming Royal Rumble match, noting:
“Of course, if they (WWE) called me and said, hey man, you want to be number 22 in the Royal Rumble? I’ll be like, hell yeah baby, sign me up.
“Let me just stay in there until the last five guys and throw me out. Who cares? But yeah, hell yeah man. That’d be fun as hell.”
Heath was released by WWE in April 2020 after 14 years with the company.
