Nick Aldis always comes off good in interviews. He is one of those guys that seems to have all the tool ,except being exciting. You're right. He needs..... A conga line! But seriously. He's *hasn't* always struck me as someone with the flash and sparkles. But he's always been on my list as one of the best out there there that looks right as a champion. But what would be many of those who get the accolades be if certain people weren't determined with strapping a rocket on their backs at the cost of the rest of the rosters. And how far some others would have gotten if they had unlimited continues as some others? **EDIT** Damn. After all this time, I didn't realize I left out the word *hasn't* in my post. This would have changed the entire context of what I was trying to say.

This is the only reason WWE hasn’t hired me as well. Johnny Ace WAS NOT impressed with my impression of him eating soup that was too hot.

Yeah, he’s never going to be world champion but they’d want him for nxt UK at least, could be anyone of several suspects as half of Dixie era TNA is working for the company in some capacity.
As said it’s a blessing for him as he’s doing better elsewhere and probably has friends in ROH or AEW if he ever finds himself looking for work. Kind of an odd one where he’s just missing “it” and not really knowing what that “it” is, imagine if Bobby Roode had been given a generic rock theme upon entering WWE that would be Magnus, sometimes it’s the tiniest things.

I think another thing is that I've always gotten the sense that he'd resent going through NXT first. He'd see it as something below him, no matter the buzz that it currently has. He'd see it as a slight against him. Even NXT UK, I think he would be upset about doing. He sees himself as main roster talent right out the gate.

AJ Styles still salty over the Dixieland match That was Jeff Hardy, though. That's why nobody in the drunk tank wants Nick Aldis. Honestly, I thought Nick was referring to Bruce Prichard as he was one of the few guys that was in TNA now in the WWE that could have a word about hiring or firing someone.

But Prichard had no influence in WWE between 2009 and 2019, so how could he be the one preventing him from going to WWE in these years?

The obvious "who" is John Cena, probably because Mickie's relationship with John. That said, I can't see that being much of a factor anymore now that Cena's gone. Did Aldis work with anyone else currently in WWE or NXT who'd have a problem with him? AJ, D'Von, Road Dog I think, Abyss, Bruce Pritchard, Jeff Jarrett, Sonjay, Nigel, Jeremy Borash.

There are enough people on that list who could make a career in WWE difficult to attain or maintain if one has had an issue with one of them.

And that's just the famous names. Who knows how many no name office staff and backstage guys who never get named that might have gone from TNA to WWE. Hell it could be someone who he pissed off years ago.

Just to pull this up from 7 months ago, Bruce Pritchard said on Something to Wrestle that he isnt interested in him, worked with him in TNA and just doesnt think he has the IT factor.
Aldis did a Twitter rant about how he saved TNA ratings and is great.
So, could be the answer here is Bruce.

I think AEW might work for him down the road. Dude appears to know how to cut a promo and appear like a professional, not to mention his in-ring.

I’m not saying Cena didn’t stop anything, but it wouldn’t really make sense to me. He had no problems working with Dolph Ziggler for years, who had actually dated the woman he ended up getting engaged to. Why would he have a problem with a guy he never met who’s married to a woman he used to have a fling with? Especially when that woman is actually employed by WWE again. It just doesn’t make sense why he’d wanna block Nick Aldis.

Aldis should be in AEW in my book.
He is a perfect fit for their vision.
