In an appearance on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, the 39-year-old WWE star cleared the air on rumors of him becoming a manager due to an injury. Aldis clarified that he was dealing with issues following his last dates on the independent circuit. However, the delay in his debut wasn’t due to an injury, but it was them waiting for the right moment.

“Yeah, it’s funny because some of that was just some interesting timing. Because no, I was not put in that role because I was hurt. It wasn’t a case of being not cleared or needing time to heal up or anything like that… I probably did have some issues that I was not fully aware of until I actually had time for my body to heal properly. One being my back. Some of this was magnified by the fact that right around the time that,” Aldis said. [H/T – CVV]

Aldis is set to make his in-ring debut at The Biggest Party of the Summer in Minneapolis.
