Jake Hager: Whoever Books the Royal Rumble Doesn’t Like Me Very Much, I Sincerely Doubt I’ll Ever Be in One Again

Jake Hager kept it honest when asked about this potential return.

Since leaving All Elite Wrestling, Jake Hager has started his own trucking company where he has made a good living. However, prior to joining AEW, he was a former WWE World Heavyweight Champion and was part of many different moments that happened throughout the WWE’s 2010 era.

Despite that, in a recent interview with Sportskeeda, Hager kept it honest when asked about a potential return to the WWE as Jack Swagger.

“I sincerely doubt it,” Hager told Sportskeeda when asked about a potential Rumble appearance. “I don’t think they like me very much.”

Asked who doesn’t like him very much, Hager stated, “Whoever books the Royal Rumble.”

Hager commented on Tony Khan a few months ago where he had some not so nice comments about his former boss.
