5. Another Former WWE Wrestler Returning?
As we noted earlier today, former ECW World Heavyweight Champion Rhyno (who returned on NXT a few weeks back) and former WWE Tag Team Champion Curt Hawkins are expected to return to the main roster soon and will be a part of SmackDown Live.
Another name that is being rumored to make his return is Jinder Mahal.
WWE officials have been thinking about bringing back some veterans and former WWE wrestler for the Brand Extension for some time now. This is being done to solve the roster depth issues for both Raw & SmackDown Live.
