<p>In a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mdh6JueKv-Y">new video posted to his YouTube channel</a>, Maven spoke about a potential return to WWE. He detailed how a WWE employee he knows said they tried to pitch his return to the company, but the idea was shot down. (H/t Skylar Russell of <a href="https://www.fightful.com/wrestling/maven-current-wwe-employee-was-shot-down-mighty-quickly-when-pitching-potential-return-me"><em>Fightful</em></a>)</p>
<p>“I ran into a current WWE employee and no, it’s not any wrestler. This employee informed me that they not only went to bat for me, but tried to encourage and tried to suggest possible ways of utilizing me, utilizing the talents that I may possess now,” said Maven.</p>
<p>“This person told me that not only was the answer no, they were actually shot down mighty quickly. I wish I could say it upset me or made me sad or even disappointed me in some way, but the fact of the matter is, it just didn’t. The one thing I’ve been able to do over the past twenty years is be resigned to accepting the fate that is in front of me, not wishing I could alter or change things that are indeed behind me. I have this platform now and I’m able to still provide some value to a business I love so much. I’ve learned to be grateful and accepting of whatever fate comes my way because honestly, sometimes in life, whether good or bad, sometimes we’re just passing through.”</p>
<p>Interestingly enough, Maven’s video shows him pulling up to the WWE Performance Center. As the video ends, the camera cuts to a view inside the WWE PC, looking out at Maven.</p>

<p>Maven competed in the first season of Tough Enough, and he was a co-winner with Nidia. He went on to have a memorable WWE run that included eliminating The Undertaker from the 2002 Royal Rumble. He also won the Hardcore Championship three times before WWE released him in 2005. Maven later revealed that he was set to return to WWE as an announcer in 2020. However, the deal fell through due to the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>
