JBL isnt ruling out a return to WWE commentary, but hes keeping it realtheres simply no room for him right now.
Speaking on the Something to Wrestle podcast, the former WWE Champion made it clear that while hed love to be back at the commentary desk, the current lineup is too strong to shake up.
Of course, Id be interested. But theres not a spot available, and I dont see one coming open. You have great commentators right now. I think Pat McAfee does a great job. I think Wade Barrett does a great job. I think Booker T is doing a great job. Corey Graves; I love those guys. Youve got wonderful guys who are filling the roles incredibly well, better than I could do.
JBL previously had stints as a color commentator, working alongside Michael Cole and others, but he doesnt see a future for himself in that role again.
Would I enjoy it? Of course I would. Yeah, I had a lot of fun being around the boys and a lot of fun working with Michael Cole, but theres no spot available, and so theres no future in a commentary role.
JBL remains a respected voice in the industry, and his sharp-witted analysis made him a standout on the mic during his time behind the desk. But with WWEs current team set, he doesnt see himself making a return anytime soon.
Would you want to see JBL back on commentary, or is WWEs team fine as is? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below.
