In a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet as part of the INSIGHT With Chris Van Vliet podcast, All Elite Wrestling commentator Nigel McGuinness discussed several topics, including whether he has considered an in-ring return.
“I was open to the suggestion, open to the idea when I originally signed with AEW. I took a flight cross-country with Tony and he said ‘I’ve got to swear you to secrecy, I’m telling you something, you can’t tell another soul. We’re doing Wembley Stadium.’ I was like, Oh, my God. Then just the idea occurred to me. Could you? Should you? Because Wembley Stadium 1992. That was an epiphany for me, that was a moment.
I went there with my friend and I sat about 50 rows back, and I just remember having this strange sensation, I talk about it during my magic show how I just had this weird feeling, this belief that somehow I knew I was going to be a professional wrestler. So to go back to that venue and wrestle would just be off the charts. But the only thing that really made sense was Bryan, and he broke his arm [in 2023] because he’s got osteoporosis.”
