Lethal should have been in the WWE long before now

Why Jay Lethal isn't already competing in a WWE ring, is beyond me. Lethal is by far, one of the most talented non-WWE wrestlers in the entire world. The former Ring of Honor World Champion lost the title in August, to Adam Cole, after an impressive run of 427 days with the strap.
At one point, Lethal held both the ROH World Title, as well as the Ring of Honor television title, during the House of Truth angle.

Jay Lethal has excelled at every turn, throughout his 15-year career. One of the most memorable runs, for me at least, was during his time with TNA, where he was feuding with Ric Flair. Lethal was absolute money all throughout that particular storyline.
The way he was able to successfully emulate The Nature Boy, it was something magical and a treat to watch unfold. Jay would be a perfect fit on a roster where storytellers thrive, with the complacent ones ending up on the chopping block.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
