Shannon Moore regrets returning to WWE in 2006 and believes the comeback is up there with some of the worst decisions he’s ever made.
After being released from WWE in 2005, Moore would join TNA/Impact Wrestling that same year but would return to WWE in 2006.
Speaking on the “Oh You Didn’t Know” podcast, Moore recalled his return as part of the revamped ECW which saw him lose his first feud back to CM Punk. He said,
“Yeah, I went back up there, probably the worst decision, I ever made in my life, honestly. Yeah, just because I think that’s the time when CM Punk was getting ready to come up. My whole thing in TNA was kind of a punk gimmick, I was the prince of punk. Like I had no clue who CM Punk was at the time, but whenever they brought me back, it was just to feel like, I feel like, just to s***t on that.”
Moore said he had no issue with Punk being booked to beat him in every one of their matches as the Chicago-Made wrestler would go on to make millions for WWE.
Moore’s final WWE match happened on the August 5, 2008 episode of ECW and Moore would return to TNA/Impact in 2010.
