Pat MacAfee exceeded the expectations of the fans by putting on an impressive performance in his first professional wrestling match at WWE NXT TakeOver: XXX.

The former NFL Punter may have lost his debut match against Adam Cole, but MacAfee managed the gain the respect of the pro wrestling fanbase.

Could we see Pat MacAfee compete in a few more matches in the future?

During an interview with ESPN, MacAfee revealed that he is not under contract with the WWE and his TakeOver match was part of a one-off deal.

MacAfee detailed the physical struggles that he endured following the match, and while he didn't completely shut the door on a potential return, he seems to be done with WWE for now.

"So for when it came to the match on Saturday, I was only focused on that match. I was only focused on, "OK, how do I go in here, put on a hell of a show, hell of a fight and get a win? And then, we'll worry about everything after that on Sunday." We'll cross that bridge whenever we get to it. And I've heard the conversation start all around me and there was a lot… even my mom was asking, "Well, are you going to do this again?" I'm like, "Well, let's worry about that on Sunday." And then I got to Sunday, obviously, and I woke up. Neck was sore, back was sore, foot was sore. I got flipped on my head. To be completely honest, I'm not 100% sure what's going to happen. I'm not under contract to do anything else with Mr. H. I assume he and I will talk about this at some point because I heard his comments in the press conference afterwards, which were very nice."

The TakeOver contest could very well be Pat MacAfee's first and final WWE match.
