Older fans may remember AJ Kirsch from the 2011 season of Tough Enough. Since failing to bag that full-time WWE deal, AJ has made a name for himself outside company walls as an actor and model. He's even worked on the indys and voiced Buzz in WWE 2K19's MyCareer.

Oh, and he's also one half of the YOLO County Tag-Team Champs with Dave Dutra.

Kirsch's comeback won't be one for the record books, but it was cool to see him ham it up as a mock jobber champion on SmackDown. Now, all we need is for 'Silent Rage' Andy Leavine to make a return.
