While he was ready to step foot into the squared circle a couple of months ago, the former TNT Champion discussed prolonging his hiatus for American Gladiators. He was reportedly present backstage at All In: Texas. However, it is uncertain when he will return to AEW on TV.Recently, Mr. Mayhem took to Instagram to give a glimpse into his daily routine while reflecting on the last year."The past year has been filled with a lot of changes, a lot of faith, and a lot of rebuilding from the ground up. I don’t have any one making me breakfast or handing me my shoes, but I take care of myself pretty well on my own. This is my daily morning routine. Pray, ground, jog, swim, couple flips to make sure I still got it, read, write, water my plant (not shown), morning shake…. Yes I love honey," he wrote.
