Earlier this year Christian made his surprise return to the ring during the 30 man Royal Rumble match, and his return was met with overwhelmingly positive feedback from the wrestling community.
During an appearance on Renee Paquette’s Oral Sessions podcast the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion talked about his return to the ring, and he noted that Vince McMahon had known about his potential return for months.
“I kind of floated it out there before that to Vince that I had been cleared. You know, he was very happy about it. We had a couple of good conversations about it. I said, ‘There’s still some work to do but we’ll see where we get to at this point and kind of move forward from there.’”
“I knew that I still wasn’t ready to get back at that point. That was probably end of September, October, I knew there was still some work to do, but I was much closer than I was in July.”
Even though Christian returned to the ring in WWE fans shouldn’t expect to see him back in a WWE ring anytime soon, as he officially signed an AEW contract at the Revolution pay-per-view on Sunday.
