Pat McAfee Made his Return to WWE Commentary table at this past Saturday Royal Rumble PPV but originally he was supposed to complete in the men's Royal Rumble matchup.
As previously reported from PWInsider the return was a legitimate surprise to those in the company as he was kept hidden the day of the show.
Pat McAfee Reveal what was the original plan for his return on his radio show today, Here is the highlight:
The Return:
"There was speculation, a lot of people talking about it, a lot of people thought I was going to be in the Royal Rumble, a lot of people thought I was going to be there. That was not figured out until late last week. That came together pretty quick. Not that there was any bad relations, it's just my schedule for the last five months and everyone scheduled especially in the WWE, My Wife is pregnant, there was no bad beef or anything it was just, 'I don't want to have to train enough to get into the Royal Rumble Said Pat McAfee ".
The Original Plans:
"They said immediately (After I left) Hunter, Stephanie, and Nick, 'Rumble is like the perfect time to comeback, because that's when people comeback and it's after college football season. I was like, 'perfect, I need something to keep me in shape. I get fat and I need something to keep working out for. I tired. Everybody saw me, I was getting after it. By week nine... I think I could have done a couple minutes in the Rumble. But I don't want to disrespect anybody there were only 29 guys who came out because where the fuck was Rey Mysterio? is he Okay? There are only so many spots and there is a lot of danger and shit that can happen. I told them maybe Week 13 or 14 of the season hey want to let you know the season has been a grind with GameDay being an extra work day I'm not going to be able to be in good enough shape for The Royal Rumble. I'm just letting you know where I'm at right now. I'm not waking up an extra hour or stay up an extra hour to get in shape or whatever is needed. It's one of those combos. We'll chat later all good. It was the goal Royal Rumble was the goal, I wasn't able to keep up with it because GameDay getting dropped in and what that schedule became ".
