You never know who might return to WWE nowadays as the company has brought back a number of former wrestlers who were released over the last few years. One name who has yet to return is former Intercontinental Champion John Morrison.
Recently John Morrison has been making headlines thanks to his big boxing victory at Creator Clash 2, and he recently joined Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour to talk about the bout. During the interview the former WWE star was asked if he would ever return to WWE, and he joked that he hates “that place” while insisting that he would go back if he got the call.
“I hate that place. But sure, if they called me, I’d go back. [Laughs] Why do [I] hate it? Because it’s your dream. It’s what I’ve watched as a kid, and then you show up and you want to live your dream and do the things that you’ve dreamed of doing, but it’s a bastardized version of what you want to do. That was my experience,” Morrison explained. “It’s not for everybody. I kind of exaggerated the hate thing to make a little joke, but sure, I’d go back. I tried not to burn any bridges. I love the roster there, I love a lot of the people there.
“I love the roster of AEW, Tony I like a lot. Vince, I actually like a lot too. I like all the minds in professional wrestling. The place that I go next, I really want to have a good, honest talk with whoever’s in charge, whether it’s Vince, Tony, the number one in charge of WWE-UFC, the merger, or Nick Khan, or whoever that might be, and find out exactly what they have planned for me, and hopefully they’re honest. If I don’t like that, I’ll probably not go, and if I do, I will. That’s more important than the money for me right now.”
