Erick Rowan is an interesting wrestler. He first showed up as The Wyatt Family member. The White Goat is indeed the Goat of the wrestling business. He was released in 2020 by the WWE. It comes as no surprise that the WWE is still on his mind as he had an experience of great magnitude with the company.
Erick has worked shows for AEW. He has only appeared in two matches to date with the company. The first in a losing effort at AEW Revolution 2022, where he teamed with PAC and Penta Oscura, and on an August 2022 Rampage, teaming with Danhausen.
Rowan spoke to NBC Sports Boston and wasn’t against a WWE return. He had an interesting demeanour and he even joined forces with The Planet Champion. The two worked as tag team champions too before things changed. Vince McMahon would alter things at any time without any reason. He said about a WWE return, where Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman just returned:
There’s always [an] opportunity and my story within wrestling, that character of Erick Rowan or Erick Redbeard, it has so much left to tell and talk about. I think when I stepped aside when [the virus] happened and people were let go, I wasn’t ready for my story to stop.
WWE is in new hands and the new regime seems to fit well with almost everyone, and we could see the surviving Wyatt Family members unite, sans the late Brodie Lee. We used the word almost as some superstars are still willing to extend their time in AEW and that’s not a bad thing. WWE gives you the opportunity to be in a better state, and one should always look forward to it.
