Mickie James is happy to see her husband, Nick Aldis, land a job in WWE.
IMPACT Wrestling‘s Mickie James recently sat down with Scott Fishman of TV Insider. When asked about Nick Aldis’ recent WWE debut, James believes that Nick has deserved this opportunity for a long time.
“It’s really interesting when I was back at WWE, there was an opportunity for Nick to go to AEW,” Mickie James revealed. “He turned it down because it was too much on our family for him to be on the road full-time along with me. Our son Donovan was three or four.
“I think about it now, and it has shifted. Nick has deserved this opportunity for a long time. A lot of people don’t realize he has been at this for almost 20 years I’d say …The way our careers have gone. It’s weird not really being in the same place for long, but I think it’s by design.
“We have to do our best for our son first. That means someone has to have a lighter schedule. Business picked up for the Aldis family. In the wrestling world, if people don’t know who Nick Aldis is, they will. He is an incredible talent.”
