WWE star Mr Iguana is seeking a full-time opportunity to return to the company after gaining significant attention during his thrilling appearance at Worlds Collide last month. His performance alongside Aero Star and Octagon Jr. helped secure a victory over Lince Dorado and LWO members Cruz del Toro and Dragon Lee, instantly capturing the WWE Universe’s interest.
Embracing the WWE Universe Across All Brands
In an exclusive conversation with Sportskeeda senior editor Bill Apter, Mr Iguana expressed excitement about the potential to compete more consistently in WWE, emphasizing his openness to any brand. He explained how every WWE brand offers unique styles and moments, but for him, they all belong to the same universe filled with incredible talent.
“”I honestly don’t know. I will see what happens, because every brand is very good. Every brand has different styles and different moments in my mind, like when I was more young, like oh, RAW has this roster, SmackDown roster, NXT, that is all new. For me, any brand is walking in the same ship, because it’s the same universe, and they have a lot of talent.”

Mr Iguana also shared how his experience with WWE fans during Worlds Collide confirmed that his goal is to entertain regardless of which show he appears on, citing the careers of legends like Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and The Undertaker, who made their marks across multiple WWE brands.
“The first collab for me was AAA meeting WWE, but WWE for me is a whole universe. Being in a performance center is being in a whole universe. I don’t know, like, any one of the brands for me is watching, there’s Triple H, there’s Shawn Michaels, there’s Undertaker, there’s Booker T. I mean, I’ve seen WWE. I almost don’t see like in brands and colors.” [From 0:43 onwards]
