EXCLUSIVE: Marc Mero Open To Signing WWE Legends Deal

Marc Mero would be open to working with WWE again, with Mero stating he’d be interested in signing a Legends deal with the company. Mero worked for WWE from 1996 until departing acrimoniously in 1999.

Speaking to Cultaholic’s own Tom Campbell on Desert Island Graps, Mero spoke of his feelings towards his former employer and how he would like to work together in the future:



“There’s no bitterness from me. It would be an honour to work with them and have a legends contract,” said Mero. “They have a Be a Star programme where they have some of the wrestlers talk at schools, that’s what I do, I’m doing 200+ events a year. How cool would it be to have WWE behind it? I’m in such a great place in my life that thank goodness I never needed it but you certainly would like to walk away saying that there were no problems or anything like that. There are no problems on my end but I understand that there may be some hard feelings on their end still.”

In WWE, Mero is a one-time Intercontinental Champion and he enjoyed success as part of WCW, having three runs with the WCW World Television Championship as Johnny B. Badd. Post-WWE, Mero has been outspoken against steroid use in professional wrestling, as well as his aforementioned work with school children.

Mero’s new book Badd To Good is available now at Amazon and ITRwrestling.com. Catch Marc Mero LIVE in the UK this April by getting your tickets at ITRtix.com.
