10 WWE Returns That Must Happen In 2024

...if he even wants to.
Speaking to Busted Open Radio recently, Big E said about the prospect of a return that;
"Right now, there is really no timeline...I don't have any issues, I feel great, but I broke my C1 in two different places, it's called a Jefferson fracture and because of the nature of the fracture, it takes longer to heal. Initially, they told me three months. I thought three months and I would be back to wrestling, but things ended up being more complex. There are chances I might take with a broken forearm or finger. An ACL (injury), I've had before...I'm trying to make the best decision for myself and my health moving forward. I don't have any answers."
That's not a "no", nor is it slamming the door shut, but the days of Steve Austin getting driven into the ground in August and being back in his gear by November are most definitely over.
Should E be healthy and keen to come back, he'd be a Priority One return. Anything outside of those tight parameters simply shouldn't even factor into the conversation.
