Following the return of Mickie James, everyone’s wondering if we will be seeing more of her in the future. Triple H did a live Facebook interview with Cathy Kelley following NXT TakeOver: Toronto, and he told Cathy that it’s up to Mickie James to decide if she wants to continue working with WWE.
“I think that’s up to Mickie James,” Triple H said. “I think Mickie James proved she still has what it takes. I think her next step is up to Mickie James.”
It remains to be seen if she will be working more with WWE, but Mickie James was recently a guest on the TJR Wrestling Podcast, and she noted that she would “absolutely” be open to joining WWE’s main roster.
“Absolutely I would be completely open to being on WWE’s main roster again. I also recognize that people talk about WWE’s young talent and they’re all hungry and I totally agree with that because there’s a lot of amazing talent that’s both signed and unsigned. I feel like there’s something unique, special and different that I can bring to the roster.”
