2. Hulk Hogan

Hulk Hogan's complex relationship with WWE could take yet another turn should Vince McMahon select the celebratory edition of the flagship broadcast to reintroduce him to the masses.

'The Hulkster' was sensibly extradited to obscurity after regrettable audio emerged of him using racist slurs during his chaotic (but ultimately successful) lawsuit against Gawker, but everybody from Triple H downwards has gone on record with the implication that he'll probably return sooner or later.

Vince McMahon famously remarked that an old and infirm wheelchair-bound Hulk Hogan would still get massive reactions, and he's probably not wrong in the assertion. Why wait for the inevitable (which could be quite soon based on the state of Hogan's hips) when the daft old sod is presumably free as a bird on January 22nd.
