Davey Richards Announces Desire To Unretire

Davey Richards Announces Desire To Unretire

Two weeks ago, allegations of domestic abuse against Davey Richards were made public, and several promotions he was wrestling for would subsequently announce he was no longer connected to them. This would result in the former ROH World Champion announcing his retirement from the sport.

Now though, he has taken to social media days after posting what he considered proof of his innocence to declare his desire to return to the business he so abruptly left. Of course, whether he will be welcomed back remains to be seen.

Most fans know 40-year-old Richards for his work in ROH and TNA, where he held multiple tag team titles and was ROH World Champion for 321 days between 2011 and 2012. It is also believed he almost signed with WWE in 2013 after making a single NXT appearance under the name Derek Billington. Still, no deal was agreed upon, and he later revealed he never grew up watching the WWE product, so working there was never a career goal.
