All the rumors of a veteran performer potentially joining WWE didn't add up to anything as Nick Aldis made his return to IMPACT Wrestling at Rebellion 2023. Since then, several fans have come forward on social media to share their reactions to Triple H missing out on a possible game-changing signing.Aldis joined the commentary table at Rebellion 2023, where he revealed he had inked a new contract with the Nashville-based promotion. He also made his intentions clear when he confronted newly crowned IMPACT Wrestling World Champion Steve Maclin, laying the seeds for a potential match down the line.Nick Aldis had earlier worked for IMPACT Wrestling from 2008-2015. It's no secret that fans were expecting Triple H to sign the 36-year-old to WWE, especially since he had made many signings in recent months.However, it seems like the promotion's unofficial "hiring freeze" stopped them from making a move to bring Alids under its umbrella. Soon after Nick Aldis returned to IMPACT Wrestling, fans began talking about WWE missing out on another free agent after Jay White, who recently debuted for AEW.A few users also believe how Aldis' real-life issues with Bruce Prichard might have impacted his potential signing.
