Titus O’Neil, WWE’s beloved Global Ambassador, is keeping busy outside the ring, diving into Hollywood projects and preparing for the release of his second book. While the former WWE Tag Team Champion hasn’t wrestled since 2020, he’s not entirely ruling out a return to the squared circle.
Speaking on The Business of the Business podcast, O’Neil opened up about his current focus on philanthropy, film, and writing, but admitted he still feels the pull of the ring. “I do get the itch to get back in the ring, I love competing. I love entertaining,” he shared. “If there’s an opportunity that works well for me to do so, yeah, we’ll definitely do it.”
O’Neil revealed he’s already completed two film projects set to release in 2025, with more in the pipeline. His Hollywood ambitions are inspired by some of WWE’s biggest crossover stars, including his close friend Dave Bautista. “I do desire to have a high level of success in Hollywood, much like my fellow WWE stars that have made that jump, including one of my best friends who got me into the business, Dave Bautista. I am really excited about that process,” O’Neil said.
With mentors like John Cena and Bautista offering guidance, O’Neil is tapping into a wealth of knowledge as he transitions into acting. “I have some great people to follow, I have some great people to lean on in John Cena and Dave Bautista, to ask questions and to get kind of the best practices to help me on this journey,” he added.
For now, O’Neil seems content balancing his philanthropy, upcoming films, and writing while leaving the door open for a return to the WWE ring.
