He appeared on WWE television twice in the bleachers and was featured in the 2021 WWE draft. As an official member of RAW, he can make his debut soon.

The WWE Universe can expect him as a participant in André the Giant Battle Royal. However, as it is a pre-show match, WWE won’t let their latest acquisition make his arrival on the pre-show.
