Former WWE Star Pitched New Character For Possible Return

Over the years there have been many stables who have made an impact in WWE and Nexus made sure their presence was felt right away. The group dominated WWE for some time, but many of the original members were eventually released from WWE.

PJ Black previously competed in WWE as Justin Gabriel, but he was released in 2015 and went on to work with various companies including Impact Wrestling, ROH, NWA and more. Now it seems that the former WWE Tag Team Champion is interested in returning to WWE as he told PWMania.com that he recently pitched some ideas for a potential comeback.

“I mean, never say never [with] WWE. I did show them this new character I’ve been working on and I sent them the package. I sent it to all the writers, the producers and everyone I know that works there. And you know, it’s kind of mixed reviews. Everyone’s like, ‘Interesting. I really want to see what’s next.’ Some people were like, ‘Wow, there’s so much we could do with it,’ because there’s so many layers to unpack.”

“Some of the AEW people were just like, “ah, yeah, this is cool, but can you just be Darewolf?” And I was like, Yeah, I can do that, too. So we’ll see what happens. I haven’t really had any, like, solid offers or anything like that. But like I said, it would be nice, but I mean, I’m not going to wait around for that before I pull the trigger on this character. So we’ll see. We’ll see it. I mean, it’s a very interesting time in wrestling right now. There’s so many companies and great talents all over the world. So I think it’s a really exciting time. This is what I like about wrestling. You know, like if it evolves and if you don’t have depth, then you get left behind. And then you’ll see guys like Chris Jericho, Rey Mysterio has been around forever and ever and ever, and they just kind of like adapt and go. So I’m trying to not be like Chris Jericho, but kind of just adapt to the time reinventing myself playing a new character, like just bringing some new new things to the table that I think will be fresh and exciting.”
