Fred Rosser, previously known as Darren Young in WWE, has expressed his readiness for a return.
Rosser was part of WWE from 2005 to 2017, making his main roster debut in 2010 as an original member of the infamous faction, The Nexus. Also known for his tag team run with Titus O’Neil as one-half of The Prime Time Players. In 2017, Rosser suffered an arm injury during a match on Main Event. Later that year, he was released from his contract.
Since his release, Rosser has built a successful career outside WWE, becoming a standout performer in both NJPW and NWA. In a recent interview with Pro Wrestling Culture, he shared that he still keeps in touch with his former Nexus teammates through a group chat. Although fans frequently speculate about a possible Nexus reunion on television.
“The Nexus was a lot of fun for me. It was my big break with WWE. I did my thing as a group with the Nexus. I did my thing as a Prime Time Player, I did my thing with Bob Backlund. But the Nexus was so much fun, really, out of all the original Nexus members, I’m kind of the only one still actively, still actively wrestling, and I was the youngest member of the Nexus, you know, I’m 41, you know?”
“To me, that’s old. I say all the time, I still have a lot left to offer. I still have a lot left in the tank. People ask me, ‘Do I still talk to them?’ I do still. We’ve got a text thread. So we always talk about, ‘Oh, when are we going to do a comeback again?’ We can’t control that. That’s the machine, WWE, but I know if they called me now, I would be ready, because I stay ready.” [H/T: Fightful]
