Former WWE Superstar Maven Huffman recently expressed his enthusiasm about the possibility of returning to the Royal Rumble match.

Speaking on the Cafe de Rene podcast, Maven shared his thoughts on a potential comeback. Despite his eagerness, he confirmed that WWE has not yet reached out to him for this year’s event.

“If it’s happening, I haven’t got the call yet. I know people would like me, ‘It’d be a great spot.’ I haven’t got the call yet, I haven’t heard anything,” Maven stated.

Maven’s Memorable WWE Royal Rumble Moments

Maven’s history with the Royal Rumble is marked by some unforgettable moments, particularly in the 2002 match. It was during this event that he achieved a shocking elimination of The Undertaker, a move that left fans and commentators alike in awe.

However, The Undertaker soon exacted his revenge, assaulting Maven around the arena. In the following year, Maven once again confronted The Undertaker with a dropkick but failed to eliminate him and was quickly ousted from the match by the Deadman.

These appearances in 2002 and 2003 remain Maven’s only participation in the Royal Rumble. In total, he spent 11 minutes and 53 seconds in the match across both years and has one elimination to his name.

Despite his limited appearances in the Royal Rumble, Maven has garnered a dedicated fan base that continues to support and reminisce about his memorable moments in WWE.
