Tyler Breeze added that he was burnt out at the time of his WWE release, as he had taken very little time off during his 11 years in WWE. The former “NXT” Tag Team Champion stated that his release was a blessing in disguise, as he got to relax and get a well-earned break after a grueling run with the company.

“At that point, I was a little bit burnt out. I mean, I’ve been going hard … I really only took, I don’t know, maybe a couple days off here and there. I think maybe I took a couple days off to go get married, that was about it. So I’ve been lucky … I’d never really been hurt, so I never really took extended time off. I was booked on everything. I think in 2017 or 2016, I had the most matches in WWE,” said Breeze. “But, I just kind of liked sleeping in my own bed and waking up and making breakfast and not really being in a hurry to go anywhere. Just hanging out with my animals, just enjoying life. A little bit of the reward for the hard work of being on the road for 11 years.”

When asked if he would return full-time to WWE, Breeze responded in the affirmative almost immediately, citing how he’s just 36 years old and has many years left in the business. Breeze added that he has a good relationship with WWE, especially with Triple H, and would be keen to return if the call ever came from WWE.
