Muhammad Hassan Comments On Returning To The Ring, Missing The Wrestling Environment

Former WWE star Muhammad Hassan (Mark Copani) recently spoke with Austin Kellerman for Pro Wrestling Sheet; you can read a few highlights below:

Copani comments on his return to the ring after a 13 year layoff: 

“The first time I was a little nervous — a little unsure of what I was doing. The second time it felt like it was the day after I stopped. It was a lot more fun the second time.”

Copani comments on being pulled from WWE TV in 2005 and how he dealt with it: 

“I had to put it behind me and I had to move forward. That was the only way I could survive — if I forgot about wrestling and I focused on a new career.”

“It might have taken 13 years to kind of get over it and get out and work again, but I miss working in the ring. I love being in the ring. The actual wrestling part, I really enjoy.”

Copani says he doesn’t want to be on the road full-time again, but wouldn’t rule out a one-time appearance, like as a surprise Royal Rumble entrant: 

“It would be enjoyable to be back in the atmosphere again. It’s nothing I would want to do full-time, but I’m not going to lie — I miss it. I miss being around the boys. I miss being in the ring. I miss the athleticism of it — the art of wrestling.”
