10 Phrases Guaranteed To Anger Most Wrestling Fans

Genuinely surprising superstar returns are nearly impossible in today's era of internet hype and social media blabbermouths, so when one actually happens, the excitement level ratchets up a few notches. That should've been the case with Christian.

The rumor mill was pulsing for months before Christian made his return to WWE in 2009, but the when and how of it was still very much in the air. So when Christian's music cut off a Jack Swagger promo, there was a palpable buzz sweeping through the crowd.

As evidenced by his flat reaction, commentator Todd Grisham was not so excited. His monotone pronouncement consisted of just two words: "It's Christian." It read just like that, too, with no dramatic pause or string of exclamations. Just two words that sucked all the air out of the moment while pointing out nothing the TitanTron - or the physical appearance of one of WWE's most well-known personalities since the turn of the millennium - hadn't already told us.

Ask any wrestling fan of the last couple decades to name the most disappointing superstar return, and this will certainly be mentioned - through no fault of Christian's.
