In an interview with Chris Van Vliet, WWE Hall of Famer
Jesse Ventura said that he is on the verge of signing a
Legends deal with WWE, ending his 15-year exile from the
company.
Asked about his relationship with WWE is at the moment,
Ventura said it has “much improved” compared to the previous
years where he had nothing to do with the company as long as
Vince McMahon was heading it.
“We are on the verge right now, I can say this, that
contracts have been written, contracts have been agreed
upon, and all it requires is two signatures, one from them,
and one from me,” Ventura said. “And I will be back with the
Legends.”
He noted that the deal will be done fairly quickly because
“time is money.” Ventura visited WWE during Raw last month
in his home state of Minnesota, a state where he was a
governor between 1998 and 2003. He was greeted by WWE Chief
Content Officer Triple H upon his arrival and mingled with
the rest of the Superstars backstage. His visit was also
mentioned on the show, with Michael Cole welcoming “The
Body” back home.
