Since joining WWE last year, Nick Aldis has become a notable figure both behind the scenes and on-screen. Recently, the former NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion shed light on his initial conversation with Triple H following his hiring, offering intriguing details about his journey within the company.
Shortly after joining WWE, Aldis stepped into the role of General Manager for SmackDown, where he has garnered praise for his portrayal of an authority figure.
Despite his success in this capacity, many fans have expressed anticipation for Aldis to eventually step into the ring.
In a recent discussion with Kenny McIntosh of Inside The Ropes, Aldis shared insights from his conversation with Triple H.
According to Aldis, Triple H emphasized the importance of confidently addressing the audience, assuring him that he would resonate with fans once he began speaking.
Reflecting on Triple H’s advice, Aldis recalled,
“I think Hunter looked at it as, like, let’s rip the band-aid off. There’s no easy way to do this that’s not going to be a little bit awkward. So let’s get it out of the way. And then he just said, ‘I’m going to give you the mic right away, and you’ll get over. Once you talk you’ll be okay.’ And that’s how I felt about it. I was like, the sooner I can get in the ring and forget that part the better, just give me the mic.”
While Aldis has excelled in his role as SmackDown General Manager, speculation continues regarding his potential return to in-ring competition.
Fans eagerly await the opportunity to witness Aldis’s transition from authority figure to competitor, further adding to the anticipation surrounding his WWE journey.
In a previous conversation with Alex McCarthy, Aldis acknowledged fans’ interest in his in-ring return, particularly following his confrontation with Roman Reigns.
Although Aldis stopped short of confirming any immediate plans, he hinted at the possibility of lacing up his boots once again in the future, teasing an exciting chapter in his WWE tenure.
