The Blue Meanie has been credited for his work in promotions like WWE and ECW between 1995 and 2005. The ECW Original was brought back for various sporadic appearances, but WWE once picked a fellow ECW Legend over him for a Royal Rumble appearance.
While speaking to The Wrestling Binge, The Blue Meanie stated that he would be open to appearing as a surprise entrant in the 2023 Royal Rumble match on January 28 in San Antonio, something that was planned for the 2015 edition in his hometown of Philadelphia.
“I would love to. Truth be told, I was almost a part of the Rumble here in Philadelphia. That was the infamous Roman Reigns winning, where everybody wanted Daniel Bryan to win, but Roman won. I had reached out to JBL, of all people, and JBL went to the office and pitched me.”

The Blue Meanie was seen on the October 11th, 2021 episode of AEW Dark: Elevation in Philadelphia. He came out to support Crowbar, who went on to lose a match against Joey Janela. We’ll have to see what’s in The Blue Meanie’s future, but he’s certainly picking up the phone if WWE calls him.
