Hall Of Famer Begging Tony Khan For A Job With AEW

Jul 28, 2022

WWE has made some major changes behind the scenes and some employees who had been working for the company for quite some time ended up getting let go. Road Dogg previously worked as the head writer for SmackDown before making the shift to NXT, but he parted ways with WWE back in January.

Road Dogg recently talked about the possibility of returning to the company during an appearance on Busted Open Radio, and he explained that he would rather return to NXT than the main roster.

“For a while there, it was hands off and I could write the SmackDown I wanted to write, with help, of course. Then, it got back to the old corporate ways. I would love to go back to NXT. I don’t think I want to go to the main roster. I would love to go somewhere where I have something to offer. What I have to offer is making the television show sweet. I got a couple of ideas about wrestling. I feel like WWE has that. They have everything I have to offer. I don’t know if they’d hire me back. Of course, I’d love to go back to NXT. It’s really cool down there. Shawn (Michaels) and a couple of writers I worked with on SmackDown, got a great rapport with those guys. I don’t know if I’m ready to do the ol’ Windsor nod and fit back into the suits I bought.”

Whether or not a WWE return will end up happening for Road Dogg remains to be seen, but he also made it clear that he’s interested in working for All Elite Wrestling.

“I’m not retired, I’m unemployed. I see things on Tony Khan’s TV show that appall me. I could help with that. I have been begging him for a job on every platform I can and I want to know the reason why he won’t hire me.”
