In an exclusive interview with Rewind Recap Relive, Konnor and Viktor, the infamous duo known as The Ascension, revealed that the door to their return to WWE may not be closed just yet. The two brothers, who were released by the company seven years ago, have been making waves in the independent circuit and have their sights set on making a comeback.
A New Chapter for The Ascension
The Ascension, known for their dominant presence in NXT and their brutal methods, have been a staple of the WWE universe for years. However, after their release in 2015, the brothers have been working tirelessly to rebuild their brand and make a name for themselves in the wrestling world.
“We’ve been grinding every day, honing our craft, and learning from our experiences,” Konnor said in the interview. “We’re not the same guys we were seven years ago. We’re hungrier, we’re more determined, and we’re more focused than ever before.”
Conditions for Return
According to the brothers, their return to WWE would depend on one crucial factor: creative freedom. The Ascension has been vocal about their dissatisfaction with the way they were booked during their initial run, and they’re looking for a change.
“We want to be able to tell our own story, to be able to showcase our own unique style and personality,” Viktor said. “We’re not looking to be a part of some cookie-cutter, formulaic booking that we’ve seen time and time again. We want to be able to bring something new and fresh to the table.”
Backstage Talk: WWE’s Interest in The Ascension
Sources close to WWE have revealed that there is indeed interest in The Ascension’s return. While nothing is official, it’s believed that the company has been monitoring the brothers’ progress in the independent circuit and are impressed with their growth and development.
“WWE has been keeping an eye on The Ascension’s resurgence, and they’re definitely intrigued by their potential,” a WWE insider revealed. “If they can bring that same level of energy and charisma to the main roster, I think they’d be a great addition to the company.”
The Road to Redemption
The Ascension has been working tirelessly to rebuild their brand, and their efforts have paid off. They’ve been signed to several promotions, including Major League Wrestling (MLW) and the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA), and have even had the opportunity to work with some of the biggest names in the industry.
“We’re not just looking to return to WWE for the sake of returning,” Konnor said. “We’re looking to make a statement, to prove ourselves, and to show the world what we’re capable of. We’re not just The Ascension – we’re a force to be reckoned with.”
The Future of The Ascension
While nothing is official, it’s clear that The Ascension is on the cusp of making a major comeback. With their sights set on WWE, they’re ready to take on the competition and prove themselves as one of the top duos in the industry.
“We’re not just looking to return to WWE – we’re looking to dominate it,” Viktor said with a confident smile. “We’re The Ascension, and we’re here to stay.”
As the wrestling world watches with bated breath, one thing is certain: The Ascension is on the rise, and their return to WWE is sooner rather than later. Will they be able to make a successful comeback, or will they fall victim to the same creative missteps that led to their initial release? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure – The Ascension is back, and they’re hungrier than ever.
