10 Best Ways WWE Could Bring Back Its Missing Wrestlers
With the return of Jimmy Uso, which other superstars need to return to our screens?
Overall, WWE produces seven hours of fresh, new programming a week across its three main brands. That is a lot of time for wrestlers!
In theory.
We see the likes of Braun Strowman, The Miz and MVP be utilised again and again every week on RAW, which makes the product as a whole feel very stale, particularly as their roles rarely change. We keep seeing the same group of talent rotate around each other for months on end... so why not throw a few fresh faces into the mix?
While some of these performers are not exactly the youngest WWE has to offer, there is still an insane amount of story to tell with the characters. They could still have a great conclusion, while others on this list need to restart their run from scratch. WWE has access to an absurd number of wrestlers, and the fact some of these are not being used is a straight-up headscratcher.
Granted, there are reasons why some of these wrestlers have not been seen on television for a while, but that does not mean we can't fantasy book their return to the squared circle...
10. Triple H
It can often be overlooked how great Triple H is.
His feud with Batista was great, particularly the build. Say what you want about the match, but it's hard to deny that The Game knows how to craft a story in the ring. Looking at how Triple H should make his return, there is only one suitable way for this. He heads down to the Black and Gold Brand.
The storytelling in NXT is sublime, and head honcho Triple H deserves some credit for that. There are numerous wrestlers down in NXT who could call out Triple H for One Last Match. Tommaso Ciampa, Johnny Gargano, Finn Balor even Karrion Cross could all benefit from ending the in-ring career of Triple H.
Adam Cole has to be the man to do it. His parallels with both Triple H and Shawn Michaels means there is a lot of meat to this story. Adam Cole could call out Hunter and maybe even lean into the more "shoot" style of promo, giving this an incredibly realistic tone.
This could all then culminate at a TakeOver, with Triple H passing the torch to the younger guy. If NXT is about building the future stars of WWE, this could be a great way to get them over.
