Veteran commentator says right opportunity could bring him back
Summary
– Corey Graves confirms he is medically cleared to wrestle
– Not actively pursuing a return due to demanding in-ring lifestyle
– Says he would jump at the right opportunity in WWE or AAA
Corey Graves has revealed that a return to the ring is not entirely off the table, despite stepping away from in-ring competition years ago.
During a recent interview with TV Insider, Graves confirmed that he received medical clearance a few years back after dealing with concussion-related issues that forced his retirement. While he transitioned into commentary and became one of WWE’s most recognizable voices, the possibility of wrestling again still exists.
Graves admitted that returning would require a major commitment, particularly to maintaining peak physical condition. He noted that one of the biggest factors holding him back is the demanding nature of staying in ring shape compared to his current role behind the desk.
Although he is not actively chasing a comeback, Graves made it clear that he has not fully closed the door. He explained that the right storyline or opportunity could change his mindset and lead him back into competition.
He also mentioned that such a return could happen not only in WWE but potentially through connections with AAA, depending on how the situation develops.
For now, Graves remains focused on his commentary career, but with medical clearance already secured and interest still there, the idea of an in-ring return continues to linger.
