🍸Harry Smith (Davey Boy Smith Jr) was set to be repackaged in his WWE return.
𓆉Harry Smith's return to WWE was short-lived as he was back for a dark match in July 2021 and then released by the company on November 4 before ever returning to television.
💯Speaking to, Smith revealed what he was told regarding the plans for his television return.
“John Cone said,' the next time you are going to come to SmackDown it’s going to be your debut”, you did really good [in your dark match], Vince really liked it.' So I was like, great, I’ll just wait and then they asked me to do a dark match in Tampa and they were going to do some backstage vignettes with me and my father’s leather vest. They were going to show that for the documentary, and then luck be have it I ended up having COVID, really bad, so I was kind of out of commission for about three weeks or a month. Then I was kind of forgotten about, I came to TV one or two times… I was waiting to come back and then they called and Johnny [ Laurinaitis] said he wasn’t a fan of it [his release], he wasn’t happy with the list of names he was given but it wasn’t from him. I don’t know what they were waiting for, the only thing I was told was, I was going to be debuting on SmackDown and they were going to call me ‘The Stampede Stud’. It just never happened, it wasn’t my fault. I showed up more than in shape. I saw Vince and he was like 'oh you’re looking good kid,'" recalled Smith.
🍒Smith teamed with Theory in the dark match to defeat Odyssey Jones & Xyon Quinn. A WWE digital exclusive interview was released with him after the match, which fans can watch in the video above.
♒Smith is currently wrestling for the NWA where he teams with Doug Williams as The Commonwealth Connection.
