Mustafa Ali Demands Hall Of Fame Stats From WWE

Mustafa Ali made an impact during his debut on the main roster a few years ago. He had a lot of potential but it was largely squandered due to unfortunate injuries and bad booking. Ali has been back for a while now and he has a list of demands by the looks of it.

Ali requested his release from WWE, which did not really shock fans. The company did not grant him his release. Instead, Ali returned to WWE television last month.

Since then, Mustafa Ali has been feuding with Austin Theory for the WWE United States Championship. The Miz has also been involved in their feud. While speaking on The Bump. Mustafa Ali gave Raquel Rodriguez some advice. Ali also then proceeded to demand Hall Of Fame stats from WWE.

“Raquel, I’m a big fan of your work and I was watching your interview and I was smiling. Not to get sappy here, but I see the emotion and the love you have for this. You’re talking about the action figure and being in the (video) game, and that’s real. Part of me is a little jealous because I miss that. I miss that love I have for all this. I know you know this because you’re a competitor and you’re hungry.

There is going to come a point where, just because the way things are, the way the system is, the way the business is, the way it is, the completion, that love is going to start going down and there is going to be this level of competition that rises. I hope you don’t lose that love. Hold onto it and cherish it, but there is going to be this moment where enough is enough and you have to take it. That’s the point I’m at right now. I love the action figures, I love the t-shirts, this is everything I wanted to be when I was a kid. The other day, we had a religious holiday a few weeks ago, and my son got a WWE ring and I’m seeing him play with my action figures in the ring. Part of me loved it and part of me was like, ‘that’s not enough.’ I need more. I need championships hanging on the wall.

I need to have Hall of Fame stats, I need to be on more pay-per-views. There is going to be a point where it comes to that. Part of my advice is, enjoy the phase of your career that you’re in right now where you truly do appreciate everything because you’ve worked so hard for it and I think the sky is the limit for you, but there is going to be a point, and I don’t know when it’s going to be, but you’re going to remember, ‘this is what Ali warned me about.’ There’s going to be a point where that love supersedes a little bit and the level of competition rises. I hope there’s a balance for you, I wish the best for you,

Vince McMahon might also change his mind when it comes to Mustafa Ali’s push. Ali lost to Veer Maha on this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW after The Miz cost him the match as the special guest referee. We’ll have to see how Ali will be booked in the coming weeks.
