Summer Rae On If She Would Return To WWE

It’s been a while since fans have seen Summer Rae on WWE programming as she was released from the company in 2017 and has yet to make any sort of return.

During a recent appearance on the TWC Show the former WWE star was asked if she could possibly return in the future, and she seemed open to the idea under the right circumstances.

“No one’s ever told me you can’t do it again. but I know personally I could never go over and over again. Could I like to do the Royal Rumble and have a little storyline? Maybe, but I would need treatment. Like I need treatment now. My migraines got so bad…..I love WWE. I haven’t gone to other promotions because I also know how that is with WWE and I definitely feel like my loyalty is with them. They gave me such a big part of life. Hopefully, one day I’ll have a husband and a baby, but if I don’t have a man but I do have a baby, because I adopt, I would want them to see me and that was such a big part of my life as Summer Rae. I get called Summer on the street and I like to turn around. So, I love wrestling. I would for sure be OK with going back.”

Summer Rae also noted that at one point she tried to quit WWE, not because she wanted to, but because she was working through injuries. After realizing she was dealing with nerve damage WWE sent her to get checked out and that was seemingly the end of her career.

“I went to TV. We had this big meeting and I was walking with Tenille [Dashwood] and John Laurinaitis passed me and I said hey and my hands kind of turned. I went, ‘Do you also feel shooting pain when you do that, right?’ And she said, ‘Do what?’ And I said, ‘When you put your hands like parallel behind’ and she goes ‘no.’ And then I started noticing. I’m like well that’s weird and then so I started asking some of the boys and some of the boys were like yeah, I can’t flex my hand. So, it was almost normalized and these nerve damage nerve kind of thing. I could’ve ignored but then at the time too, like Daniel Bryan. Brie was saying Bryan couldn’t open the doorknobs. I was like that ain’t gonna be me. I’m not gonna be able to one day not pick up my baby. I went to our doctor and he was like we’ll have you get checked out at a couple of places, and they’re like that’s so weird, we had no idea. They sent me to the Pittsburgh doctor, and that’s why I never knew my last match was my last match. The fans will send me DMs like you wrestled Alicia Fox on a house show which was one of my last matches.”
