The best part of Royal Rumble season is not knowing who will show up in the titular 30 Man Over the Top Rope Battle Royal match. We will often get a few surprises like MVP from the 2020 Rumble, and this year we might have a man who hasn’t been in WWE for years, at least if his old partner gets his way. Tyson Kidd has been pushing his old friend, Davey Boy Smith Jr. to return to WWE.
Tyson Kidd Has Been Trying To Convince Davey For Years
While being interviewed on the DropKick podcast, where he noted he’s been trying to get the son of the legendary British Bulldog back into WWE.
“Man I’ve been trying to convince him to come back for a very long time and I’ve never left. I’m waiting on this guy to come back. He’s funny, he’s interesting. He’s always been this way his whole life and then you know it’s all the credit to him. He kind of always and I mean this in a positive way marches to the beat of his own drum and he kind of does his own thing. He’s not easily swayed, Which I really like about him.
It’s not like I just talked to him one day and I’m like hey man come back here and then he goes okay and then just like you know comes back and then a month later he’s unhappy. He weighs everything out and he puts a lot of thought into everything he does and I know obviously how the world has changed these last nine months has affected him, in terms of he just hasn’t been wrestling very often. Not until the last bit he had a couple matches finally but he’s supposed to go to Japan and stuff and those plans got altered.
So where he ends up honestly at this moment I don’t know. I recorded a thing for who knows when this will come out but I recorded WWE icons on the WWE Network for Davey Boy. They asked me about Harry and I said hopefully when this comes out he’s back here.”

Davey Boy Smith Jr. Has Become A Very Hot Free Agent
Davey Boy Smith Jr. is currently a free agent, as his MLW contract expired very recently. He’s been in contract with everyone from WWE to All Japan Pro Wrestling. While many WWE fans recall him as being boring, and that hasn’t exactly changed, his in ring ability has improved tenfold during his tenures in companies like New Japan Pro Wrestling and Pro Wrestling NOAH.
Even if he doesn’t return to WWE full time, he’s expected to show up to induct his father into the WWE Hall of Fame. The ceremony for 2020 was moved up to 2021 due to COVID-19.
