In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer mentioned that “The last we heard was that he had the movie gig and didn’t want to come back so soon.” 

Meltzer also added that Wyatt was far “apart on the money” with both companies. In the end, he suggested that Wyatt “may not be in a rush to” return to wrestling since he was one of WWE’s highest-paid stars before release.
