Carmelo Hayes Wants To Work With 2 Top WWE Stars

Carmelo Hayes has shared the ring with several top WWE Superstars, including Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton, since joining SmackDown last year.

In a recent interview with Saudi newspaper Ariyadhiah, the former NXT Champion expressed his desire to work with Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns.

One of the top guys I’ve always said I wanted to work with is Seth Rollins. Another one would obviously be Roman Reigns. I think Seth and I would have great chemistry in the ring. Hopefully, we could do it for a world title. Hopefully, we could do it at WrestleMania; same goes with Roman.

Hayes last wrestled on June 13 when he lost a Fatal 4-Way King of the Ring first round qualifying match.

Meanwhile, Kelani Jordan’s last match came on June 14 when she lost to Lash Legend on NXT.
