On the latest episode of Grilling JR podcast, co-host Conrad
Thompson claimed that Shane McMahon has made contact with
certain individuals in AEW to explore the idea of coming in
as a talent.

Thompson, who’s pretty well-connected in the business, said
on the show, “There was a friend of ours. He went out of his
way to text me, ‘Hey, that’s not as crazy as you think. I
know for sure that Shane McMahon has reached out to
wrestlers on the AEW roster to at least hypothetically
discuss the idea.'”

The topic came up after the two were talking about the
possibility of Shane McMahon returning and showing up behind
enemy lines when JR said that Shane called to check up on
him.

“It’s so crazy to think it might work depending on how it
was positioned or introduced,” Ross said. “Shane called me
the other day. He’s called two or three times, which I
appreciate. He’s always been sensitive in that respect.”

JR said that this is a question that only Shane can answer
and wondered how Shane and Khan being together would work
creatively.

“Heck, who knows, it might be great,” he added.

Shane was last seen on WWE television at WrestleMania 39
when he blew his leg when hitting a leap frog against The
Miz.
