Mustafa Ali Thinks a Future WWE Return Is Possible
Mustafa Ali believes that there are paths for him to return to WWE at some point. Ali was released from the company in September of 2023 and has been busy outside the company, including a run in TNA. He was asked about a potential return during an appearance on Insight With Chris Van Vliet, and you can see highlights below (per Fightful):
On a potential return: “I think there’s multiple paths, yeah. Ali said while speaking to Chris Van Vliet for a new interview. “The thing is, there’s good relations there. The thing with them moving to Netflix is very interesting because it just opens up — I don’t know how much the show is gonna change as far as dynamic, as far as ratings, as far as what they’re okay with.”
On the company’s success factoring in: “Business is so good for them, I do think there is a pathway back there. There’s good relations, there’s good contact there. Even the release was like very nice, a lot of nice messages were sent. At the end of the day, it’s on me, right? If I built something that’s profitable and something that they see, oh this plugs in. With wrestling, everything is right place, right time. It’s gotta be right for them, it’s gotta be right for me, it’s gonna be at the right time, it’s gotta be at the right place. When one person is here — If I want to go do this, it doesn’t fit. If they’re going a direction where there’s no spot for me, it doesn’t fit. It’s gotta be right place, right time. So here’s the right place, right time.”
