Huge Update On Hornswoggleâs In-Ring Future:
Â
During an exclusive interview with Nick Hausman for Inside The Ropes, the star â real name Dylan Postl â was asked whether there were plans for him to return to AEW in the future. The former WWE Cruiserweight Champion said that while heâd love to, his in-ring days are probably behind him.
Â
âNot that I know of. I mean, I would love to, but in-ring, probably is behind me, if Iâm being honest with myself after my second failed back surgery. It ainât in the cards, I donât believe in-ring for a major company.  But I truly believe the coaching stuff. And Iâm finally like, grasping that whether I have more to give inside the ring compared to outside, and teaching and helping and that Iâm okay with that. I can sign my fake name for the rest of my life. And Iâm fully okay with that.â
Hornswoggle Fires Back At Fans Who Think Vince McMahon Is His Real Dad:
Â
Despite the storyline taking place more than 15 years ago, and Hornswoggle being revealed to not be McMahonâs son, that hasnât stopped fans from asking about his âreal dad.â During an exclusive interview with Nick Hausman for Inside The Ropes, Swoggle took the opportunity to hit back at fans who havenât been paying attention.
Â
âVinceâ son people always say â Guys, I say this in every interview, I was Finlayâs kid. Like, Iâm not Vinceâs son. When I go to Horse Cave, Kentucky, âMan, howâs your daddy Vince?â Thatâs how my dad! First off, my real dad is Eric Postel. One of the coolest humans on the planet. Probably the coolest human on the planet is my real dad. My storyline father was Finlay. So you watched the child reveal which was me, and then you just shut it off?! It doesnât make any sense to me. âDaddy Vince is going through some tough times right now.â True. Thatâs not my dad! Thatâs Shaneâs dad! Thatâs not my father. Like the little kid and Free Willy, I donât even know his name. I would have to Google check on it. I wouldnât go to him be like âHey, howâs your dad?â I wouldnât go like meaning the dad in the movie. Iâm not going to the sh*tty kid in Little Giants and be like, âHey, howâs your Father Ed OâNeill?â Iâm not doing that.â

Hornswoggle Gives Update On His Relationship With WWE:
Â
When asked about WWE, Swoggle said that he remains on good terms with his former employer, and recalled some advice he was given by his father when he was released.
âYeah, I talked about it this week on the podcast, when I got released. My, my real father said, âHey, thereâs gonna be interviews you do. Thereâs gonna be people out there, you know, with your release, asking you questions.â Now he goes, he gave me the best advice, he said âDylan. Thereâs no reason to burn a bridge. No reason. Because they gave you 10 years, of living your absolute dream. Thereâs no reason to talk badly about that.â He goes, âThere are people out there that would be begging for the longevity that you had. That shouldnât have happened in reality.â And so thatâs always been my thing. Itâs like, I have no reason to burn a bridge, I have no reason to talk poorly of a company that gave me 10 years of living my dream, providing for my son, giving me an awesome life and making me a star that now I can sign that fake name, still seven years later, like, I canât be mad at that. I canât. So thereâs no reason to be negative towards it whatsoever.â
