9 Reasons Seth Rollins' Injury Is Best For WWE Business

4. Surprise Returns(?)

No, John Cena doesn€™t count here€ and neither does Chris Jericho. But what about someone like Daniel Bryan, who has been on the shelf for six months now, awaiting a doctor to clear him for action? Is it possible that he can get that clearance and enter the tournament, adding some serious star power to the brackets? Although Jeff Hardy€™s TNA contract reportedly doesn€™t expire until February 2016, there€™s always the chance that WWE is desperate enough to try to wrest the Charismatic Enigma loose. It€™s a shame that Batista is off promoting the latest James Bond film, €œSpectre,€ or WWE could have thrown some money at him for a short run, maybe even get him that title reign. Of course, the biggest surprise return WWE could pull (and no, The Rock doesn€™t count here) is to bring back Brock Lesnar for a limited run. It would cost a mint, but it certainly would shock fans who didn€™t expect to hear from the Beast again until 2016. There€™s also always the possibility that Triple H himself steps back into the ring to bring the WWE World Heavyweight Championship back to the Authority, which would be almost surreal at this point.
