Return? Former WWE Star Spotted At Performance Center

He might be back? Making it to WWE, even on the lowest level, is quite the accomplishment for any wrestler. WWE is often seen as the pinnacle of the industry for a lot of wrestlers and making it there can be seen as the ultimate goal. Not everyone who shows up stays for the rest of their career, but occasionally someone will be brought back. That might be the case again with a released star.

According to PWInsider Elite, former NXT UK star Sha Samuels was recently seen at the WWE Performance Center. There is no word on why Samuels was there and nothing to suggest that he has signed a new deal with the company. Samuels had previously been working as a guest trainer at the Performance Center in March. Samuels signed with WWE in January 2021 and was released in August 2022.

He had some time. Check out what Samuels did in WWE:

Opinion: I’m not sure why Samuels is back at the Performance Center, but even a guest coaching stint is better than nothing. At the very least, Samuels is someone with experience in a different style than some of the wrestlers might be used to and he can offer quite a bit of insight. Or maybe he is back with the company and can showcase that style in the ring. Or he’s just there visiting. Either way, it’s more than he had been doing with WWE recently so it’s at least something.
