The current NWA star tweeted: “I’ll be stepping away from the ring in couple months. Goodbye forever.” Following that, he deactivated his social media account, and that is something that led to a lot of questions, and there weren't many answers that were provided at that time.
Dango had originally been released by WWE back in June of 2021 during one of their mass cuts, and since then he has been able to work on the independent scene, while also thriving with NWA in a tag team with JTG as The Dirty Sexy Boys.
Fandango Clarifies His Retirement Comments
Despite the fact some fans thought he would be retiring, during an interview with the Dropkick Podcast at WrestleCon, he clarified what he had said, making it clear that might not be the case. Instead, it was mainly all about him getting off social media, although he will be undergoing surgery this year.
"First of all, I just wanted to get rid of Twitter ... I'm getting surgery this summer on my knee. I never really said I was retiring, I said I was going to step away for a little while. Of course, the dirt sheets picked it up, I kind of got a kick out of it," he stated.
"I'm gonna get surgery on my knee, it's been bothering me for about a year now, and re-evaluate this summer, take the summer off, spend it with my girl and my dogs, and see where we're at. Wrestling is not going anywhere." (h/t to Fightful)
It is currently unknown the exact dates of the surgery that Dango is planning and how long it will keep him out of action for, but it appears that he will be making a return to the ring at some stage in the future.
