Pro Wrestling Sheet has learned Mickie James was recently offered a new contract to once again compete on WWE‘s main roster … this according to sources.
Multiple sources with direct knowledge tell us James has kept in contact with WWE officials since NXT TakeOver: Toronto and they’ve let her know a deal is waiting for her should she want to accept.
Mickie faced off against Asuka at the NXT event last month and the match received high praise.
No word as to whether the deal would be for RAW or SmackDown Live, or the length of the contract, but either brand would benefit greatly from having another veteran in their ranks.
We’ll keep you updated if things are made official.
She looked great out there. I'd love to see her come back. Her vs Charlotte would be a dream match for me. Even if they trade clean wins that fine by me. Some on this forum would instantly turn on her because of her age, though. She wouldn't be able to get a single win without this place melting down with whiny rants about the "younger talent" with not even half the star power Mickie has.
She's still got it in the tank it seems and would be a great veteran addition to either roster. Smackdown can always use more people with their smaller roster. But I will say, Charlotte vs. Mickie intrigues me.
Good. They could really use her. If they want her to challenge for a womens title then it makes sense to put her on Smackdown since Bliss is heel. Otherwise it won't matter which show she's on.
In my book, The best female full package of all times. Well earned.
Hopefully it's not a Dudleys like run, she can hang with the best and I'd give her a few titles, I don't know if it'll happen because she'd be tying GOAT Trish's record with just 1 title win, but it should and it will be great.
Well deserved Mickie. She had the a great reception in Toronto, a great match, and her youtube numbers were better than anyone in NXT.
If she's going to SD within the next month, probably is Nikki's attacker.
Which means SD could have 3 feuds Alexa/Becky, Nikki/Mickie, Carmella/Natalya and Raw will continue on with their 1 hot potato title feud with Bayley and Nia randomly wrestling Dana Brooke and Alicia Fox
If she ends up accepting, I hope there's a clause in the contract that says zero house shows. Mickie's just not a vet in the ring but she's also a mother and I'm sure she wouldn't want to be away from the child for the majority of the year and I hope she'll head to Smackdown since she'll (hopefully) be better utilized while on RAW she'll probably be fed to Charlotte & Sasha.
I think they would work something like that out with her where she would either do no house show dates or just a limited amount. That being said, I know they aren't on the same level, but Tamina is also a mother and has managed to work a full-time schedule for the WWE.
She is still in great and awesome shape. I hope she accepts because I miss seeing Mickie James on the main roster. The main roster girls who are new breeds could learn a thing or two from a veteran like Mickie James.
Apparently the Spirit Squad were just working per appearance and weren't offered contracts. I also read that Kenny got fired for no showing his day job to be on Smackdown. If true, poor Kenny's up shit creek.
Would love to see Mickie back. While SD has a smaller roster, I actually think their women's division is better. I think Raw could use Mickie more. Mickie vs. Charlotte and Mickie vs. Nia would both be fun for starters. Mickie's great enough to get something epic out of both of those feuds IMO.
A little off-topic, but why hasn't Lita had some kind of match? She still looks in great shape, she's about 40, and it just seems weird having her as a full time WWE employee, but sitting at a desk instead of having one last great run.
Because Lita is on record of saying she is only willing to go back in the ring to work a program a series of matches with Brie, Nikki, and Trish in a Bella vs Besties angle. She likes this generation but has made it clear no part of her has a desire to work with anyone in the ring but the Bella Twins on a personal level.
They even talked about it leading to last mania but Nikki had the neck injury. WWE approached Trish about a ring return but she got pregnant. Brie is set to have her baby next year and has said she was told she can came back and come/go when she pleases as thats in her ambassador contract and she wants a SummerSlam match. When they first started talking about it, Lita actually had knee surgery, so they've all missed out timing wise.
