The 35-year-old Morrissey made his AEW debut this week on Dynamite. He was the mystery opponent that Maxwell Jacob Friedman had chosen to face Wardlow.

Morrissey had moments in the match where he showed his impressive strength against Mr. Mayhem. However, it was Wardlow who picked up the victory after delivering a thunderous powerbomb.

Reports from the Mat Men Pro Wrestling podcast suggest that WWE higher-ups were impressed with Morrisey’s work in the match.

Host Andrew Zarian revealed that he had received messages about Morrissey from certain people interested to know when the gigantic wrestler’s contract with Impact Wrestling is ending.

“I got a couple of messages about him from people. People wanting to know when his contract ends. I’m not gonna say that WWE is gonna’ take him but I can tell you that WWE is definitely impressed by him. There’s no way around it, man. I got a message last night while he’s coming out and somebody wrote, ‘did you see this F’N guy.”
