Jesse Ventura may be returning to WWE television for the first time in decades. According to WrestleVotes Radio, WWE has invited the Hall of Famer to attend SummerSlam in Minneapolis, and the company is actively discussing putting “The Body” back on camera if everything falls into place.
The current idea being talked about internally is a Ventura appearance on the SummerSlam pre‑show. Nothing is finalized yet, but WWE has been weighing the possibility of using him during the broadcast. His involvement would depend on logistics and whether the final plans come together in time.
If Ventura does appear, it would be a fitting homecoming. SummerSlam takes place in his home state of Minnesota, and it would mark his first WWE event there since SummerSlam 1999 — bringing him back to the same show nearly three decades later.
For now, Ventura’s status remains uncertain. But with WWE wanting him in the building and openly discussing an on‑screen role, fans shouldn’t be surprised if “The Body” shows up during one of the company’s biggest weekends of the year.
