James Ellsworth is backstage at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, which is the site of tonight’s SmackDown and 205 Live, PWInsider is reporting.

Ellsworth posted these tweets:

Ellsworth was last on WWE TV on July 24, when he was “fired” by SmackDown GM Paige. He’s also been posting about the “#RehireEllsworth” hashtag, urging Paige to rehire him.

Maybe he could technically show up on 205 Live since he was maybe only “fired” from SmackDown, or something.
