Former WWE Star Reveals Idea They Pitched For WWE Return

Over the last few months WWE has brought back a number of former Superstars, but Chris Masters is someone who hasn’t appeared on WWE programming in quite some time. During a recent appearance on NBC Sports Boston’s Ten Count show he noted that the desire to return to WWE is always there. However, after two runs with the company a third run with WWE isn’t something he’s spent a lot of time pushing for.

“In terms of a comeback, all I can say is the desire is always there a little bit, because this is what I love to do and I still do it. Even as far as last year, as long as I’ve been outside of WWE, I’ve never pitched to come back. It’s just because I didn’t look at it like an option after the second time. After the first time, sure, but after the second time, it’s like, I gotta move on. I still wanna wrestle, but it’s just not gonna be on television with WWE, and that’s okay.”

Masters went on to say that he did eventually pitch a return around the time of the Royal Rumble he reached out to some of the people he knows in WWE to share an idea involving himself and Bobby Lashley when he added, “When you also think of the whole Bobby Lashley aspect — the idea of the Hurt Lock-Master Lock thing — and so when Royal Rumble came around, I kind of started petitioning for it a little bit. There was some talks with some of the people I knew in WWE, so it wasn’t it was just going on deaf ears, but Bobby Lashley ended up not being in the Rumble.”
