Royce Keys was in Stamford, Connecticut this week and the reason for the former Powerhouse Hobbs' visit to WWE headquarters has been revealed.

According to Fightful Select, Royce Keys was at WWE HQ to film an upcoming episode of What's Your Story? with Stephanie McMahon. The podcast series has often been filmed in a studio at the Stamford headquarters.

Keys made his debut for WWE in the men's Royal Rumble at #14 and lasted just under 10 minutes in the match. Keys scored an elimination on Damian Priest before he was sent over the top rope by The Vision's Logan Paul, Bronson Reed, and Austin Theory.

Keys has yet to resurface on WWE programming since the Royal Rumble but reports have claimed he will be a member of the Friday Night SmackDown roster.

Keys found himself at the centre of social media speculation this week as it emerged he's actually 41 years old and not 35, which was his listed age on Google, or 37, which was his listed age on an AEW trading card. Why his age was wrong on both Google and Upper Deck trading cards is unknown.
