TJP was the inaugural holder of the rechristened WWE Cruiserweight Championship after winning the Cruiserweight Classic tournament in 2016. 

He then wrestled under WWE’s 205 Live brand until his departure from the company in February 2019.

In a tweet on Sunday, TJP responded to the announcement at PWR’s show “PWR Live: Pak! 6anern!” 

“I am yours. Always have been. Always will be,” he said, referring to his Filipino fans.

My words can’t describe my reaction to YOUR reactions…but my tears can

I tried to let this moment be “theirs”

But instead it’s going to be OURS

I am yours. Always have been. Always will be.

Let’s fucking do this!!!  #FilAmFlash #CruiserGreat @pwrofficial https://t.co/UxXzE7YqVu
