Erick Rowan talks about possibly returning to WWE
In a recent appearance on the “Ten Count” podcast, Rowan said he doesn’t know if WWE wants him to come back for the upcoming Royal Rumble match.
“As far as appearing [at the Royal Rumble], I would be the last to know,” Rowan told Fall. “I feel like fans figure out [about returns] through [dirt sheets] … and I sometimes feel like you’ll hear rumors and then all of a sudden they come true. That’s why I always say, I always laugh, ‘I’ll probably hear a rumor,’ I don’t know.”
Rowan had made his last appearance in WWE in March 2020, on the last “WWE Raw” before pandemic. The two-time WWE SmackDown Tag Team champion was later released from his contract as part of the company’s pandemic layoffs and has gone on to wrestle on and off on the independent circuit. Rowan has also made several appearances in AEW in recent years as Erick Redbeard following the death of his former Wyatt Family partner Luke Harper, a.k.a. AEW’s Brodie Lee.
