There were a lot of rumors concerning Taz returning to WWE this month since his TNA contract had expired.

SEScoops.com reports Taz did reach out to WWE and wanted to return and wanted to try and do so in time for WWE RAW in Brooklyn the night after Money in the Bank. However, executive producer Kevin Dunn had no interest in bringing Taz back to WWE television and Taz ended up signing a new TNA contract.

The report also states Triple H said in a production meeting that TNA had nobody WWE needed.
