James Storm had a very small stint on NXT back in 2015 where he wrestled Danny Burch. After that, he wasn’t to be seen. He spoke on Busted Open Radio on Sirius yesterday morning and he talked about his initial run in NXT and if he ever has plans to return to WWE again.
This is what he said:
“I went down to NXT and talked to Hunter and then I went back again and had another match with them and Impact had put an offer out on me and so did NXT, but you know I even actually sat down with Hunter and had the contract with me and was like you know ‘this is what Impact is offering and everything.’ And tell you the truth it wasn’t even about the money because I told him the situation that a lot of people don’t know about is that me and my wife was trying to have another kid, and it was just one of those deals where if you’re with WWE you might as well forget it, you’re on the road so much. He was telling me that they were gonna run a 100-125 dates with NXT and I was explaining to him about my personal life; was trying to have a baby and everything right now and he basically told me ‘look, go get your life straight and then get yourself in the best shape you can and in two years let’s see if when can do business again.”
We hope The Cowboy makes his return to NXT in the near future.
