Pat McAfee Clarified What's Going On With His Role In WWE Ahead Of WrestleMania 42

WrestleMania 42 is coming up on April 18th and 19th, and while the main events are set, it feels as though there's a lot still that could happen in shaping the card for the two-night event in Las Vegas. We're still not entirely sure about who will be featured, and amidst rumors of who may show up, Pat McAfee gave an update on his future with WWE. McAfee was last seen on commentary when he popped in during Wrestlepalooza. The event was in McAfee's current home base in Indianapolis, and the first PLE on ESPN, so it seemed obvious he'd make an appearance. That said, it looks like that's going to be the last one for a while, and possibly forever. Here are the latest comments he gave on Instagram Stories when a fan asked about his return to the WWE (via EliteRockerz):

I don't think you ever say never, especially with WWE, but right now it does not feel like it is something...it feels like that business has kind of passed me by a little bit. I grew up loving it, dreamed of working it, feel honored that I had the opportunity to work alongside the GOAT Michael Cole, but I feel the business is in a good spot without me. I'll continue to watch.
