10 WWE Wrestlers Who Should NEVER Have Come Back
5. Eva Marie
There was genuine buzz around Eva Marie's 2021 WWE return, if only because the division and company at large seemed in need of a performer that could actually generate a bit of discourse following the interminable booking of just about everybody else there.
Loathed in her original run by a fanbase too furious to know they were being worked, Marie's shtick was more about what she couldn't do than what she could. She couldn't wrestle that well, unlike the division rising up around her on NXT. She couldn't transfer her decent promo game on Total Divas over to Raw or SmackDown, at least not in a way that made a difference to any ongoing stories. Unfortunately, she couldn't feign interest in it all forever - a 2016 exit was mutually beneficial after a SmackDown Live restart that never really got off the ground.
2021 was an opportunity to rectify all that, but the chemistry felt off from the very beginning. Half-a*sed promos led into a half-baked alliance (and then feud) with fellow main roster debutant Doudrop, before the former 'All Red Everything' was creatively shuffled to one side. A release followed soon after, bringing with it as little fuorer as her ill-fated return.
