WWE Hall of Famer John Bradshaw Layfield (JBL) has been making headlines with surprise appearances outside of WWE, including at Game Changer Wrestling (GCW) and AAA TripleMania XXXII. At GCW's Homecoming event, he attacked Effy, helping Mance Warner retain the GCW World Championship, marking his first significant physical involvement since 2009. JBL previously accompanied Nic Nemeth at the AAA event, where he cleverly disguised himself in a Tinieblas Jr. mask to avoid recognition until he spoke, leading to confused fans. While JBL expressed interest in possibly collaborating with AAA in the future, he insists he is not looking to return to wrestling full-time. His recent activities suggest a desire to remain involved in the wrestling scene, despite a lengthy absence from in-ring competition. Fans are left speculating whether JBL will make more appearances or even consider wrestling again in the independent circuit.
