Beth Phoenix comments on a possible return to the ring.
Following her recent departure from WWE, fans have been speculating on whether or not Beth Phoenix could make a possible return to the ring. Some fans believe that Phoenix could join her husband, Adam Copeland, in AEW for a one-off match.
While chatting with Chris Van Vliet for a new interview, Phoenix was asked about the possibility of having one last match. In response, Phoenix stated that it just depends on the opportunities that come her way and what best suits her family.
"It’s really hard to say you’re retired. When I left in 2012, that was the word I threw around a lot. ‘I’m retired. I’m retired,’ because I wanted to have a family. I knew, for myself, that wasn’t going to be in congruence to perform and to have kids. I needed to devote myself to the kids at that time. I give the age ol’ cliche that everybody hates, ‘Never say never.’ It really just depends on the opportunities and what suits our family. That’s really it. We weight out everything. Adam’s opportunities, too. I remember when Percy Jackson came on the table and he was full-time in WWE. It was really hard to take that on, but we weighed out everything. We sat as a family and made that decision. ‘This is huge. This is the biggest acting opportunity that has come our way. You need to go do this. This is massive.’ We talked about saying no to that. We talked about everything that comes our way as a family and does that serve us now? How does it affect our kids? How does it affect our marriage? That matters too."
