It has been many years since Davey Boy Smith Jr. stepped foot into a WWE ring. The former WWE star was released from the company in 2011 and has wrestled all over the world since.
Now, the former WWE Tag Team Champion has revealed he is in talks with the company to return. He didn’t reveal too many details but said he could go to SmackDown or NXT. Here is the quote from his interview with Metro:
“There’s been quite a bit of interest and a little bit of back and forth talk with myself and the company. I think that the plan – or what they were hoping – was for me to come to NXT UK. But unfortunately right now because of COVID, those doors are kind of locked, we’ll see. There has been interest in me going to NXT down here in Orlando. I live down here in Tampa, Florida, so I’ve just been feeling things out, trying to get a lay of the land, so to speak. We’re discussing and talking. I can’t exactly say anything for sure, but there’ve been talks.
There’s other places, but with my father’s Hall of Fame induction, maybe that’s a good idea, to go back to WWE – whichever brand or roster it is. It’s just not any decision to make. I know Natalya is on SmackDown. I could very well go there. NXT down here is certainly a good place to get re-established. There’s a hell of a lot of talent down there like [Karrion] Kross, [Tim] Thatcher – Finn Balor, who I’ve wrestled in New Japan Pro Wrestling before. We’re just gonna have to wait and see what’s the best choice.”
Davey Boy Smith Jr. has competed for New Japan Pro Wrestling and MLW since his WWE release. While with WWE he was a part of The Hart Dynasty with Tyson Kidd and Natalya.
