You should be aware of the fact that the veteran Diva, Mickie James is back in the WWE and competed at this Saturday’s WWE NXT Takeover: Toronto. She took on the current NXT women’s champion, Asuka for the title. This is certainly good news for the young talent from NXT as well as the fans. A great match was given by James to put over a talent like Asuka.
Now, Mickie James has been a former WWE Women’s champion and made a career out of defeating Trish Stratus for the title. So, it is worthy to mention if she is back only for NXT or we will see her on the main roster in the near future. Recently, she joined the TJWrestling podcast where she was asked the same question and she said,
“Absolutely, I would be completely open to being on WWE’s main roster again. I also recognize that people talk about WWE’s young talent and they’re all hungry and I totally agree with that because there’s a lot of amazing talent that’s both signed and unsigned.
I feel like there’s something unique, special and different that I can bring to the roster.”
The Raw women’s division desperately needs some big names in order to bring some star power to it. Mickie James would come really handy to put over talents like Charlotte, Sasha or Bayley. Mickie James also mentioned that WWE has a bunch of fresh young talents with tremendous potential. She further added,
“Asuka is an incredible performer. I’ve seen her work in Japan, I’ve seen her work in Shimmer and I’ve seen her work in NXT. It’s cool to see a character not only come to life but be a breath of fresh of air and the fans connect to her so well.”
Mickie James has been a great Women’s champion in the WWE. She defeated Trish Stratus at Wrestlemania 22 to win the title for the very first time. Her first stint with WWE completed in the year 2010 after which she enjoyed stints in the indie circuit and TNA wrestling promotion, as well.
