WWE offered this guy a second chance. He said no, and now realises it's too late.

Maven says it "isn't realistic" that WWE would give him another shot aged 46, but revealed that he actually turned down a possible return to the company years ago.

The surprise smash hit YouTuber told fans via his channel that Pat Patterson originally approached him about launching a comeback. Maven didn't say exactly when this happened, but it led to then-chief of WWE's Talent Relations department John Laurinaitis giving him a call to gauge interest.

Maven politely declined, and pointed to his stable job with the Home Shopping Network - he wasn't willing to jeopardise that and chase his dreams again. WWE wouldn't come knocking again, and Maven doesn't believe they ever will.

The guy admitted he doesn't even really work out much anymore anyway, so it'd take a ton of work to get back into ring shape quickly. On the plus side, Maven is totally fine with how his life and career panned out. He's proud of the splash he made after winning the first season of Tough Enough, and is pleased with how he's remembered by fans and industry insiders alike today.
