Former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Christian Cage, aka., ‘Captain Charisma’ is arguably one of the most underrated wrestlers in this business. Christian proved to everyone time and time again that he is a fighter and he does not go down easily.

The former champion proved this when he made his in-ring comeback after seven long years at the 2021 Royal Rumble, shocking everyone in the process.

However, Christian soon shut down all speculations about ‘One More Match’ and joined Tony Khan‘s AEW.

Since then, the former Impact World Champion is enjoying his second run in wrestling. Eventually, Christian took to Twitter and reflected on his crazy journey back to the squared circle. ‘Captain Charisma’ also confessed that AEW will be his retirement home.

He tweeted, “1 yr ago today I took my career back. Man, 2021 was wild, I was involved in 3 PPV main events for 3 different companies & had some special moments. That being said, @AEW is my home for the rest of my career. So what do I want in 2022? The world, Chico, and everything in it.” 

Will Vince McMahon induct Christian into the WWE Hall of Fame?

Now, we all know that WWE chairman Vince McMahon is notoriously known for holding on to grudges. However, if there’s one thing that pro-wrestling teaches us, it is ‘never say never.’

In the past, the WWE Universe has witnessed several superstars who had bad blood with WWE or Vince McMahon getting into the WWE Hall of Fame.
