WWE Return Rumors


With recent suspensions, injuries and other problems still affecting WWE, they may be in need of adding some more star power. According to PWTorch, Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho just might be two answers the WWE needs right now.

From PWTorch.com:

"With the recent suspensions and injuries of several top WWE wrestlers, the company is in need of more star power. Two names that WWE is hoping to bring back this fall are Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho. However, neither man has officially agreed to a return date.

Shawn Michaels underwent knee surgery on May 23rd and was originally expected to return by the end of summer. Those plans are currently on hold - as Shawn Michaels has informed WWE that he is in no rush to return. He is considering taking an extended break from the road and then returning at a later time with a lighter schedule. WWE is in a completely different place than it was when Michaels was injured - with the Benoit family tragedy and the Congressional investigation.

WWE continues to have interest in a Chris Jericho return. It is unclear how close the two parties are to striking a deal, but there is ongoing contact."




Undertaker is set to return soon as he is part of a match at Unforgiven on 9/16 versus Mark Henry. Bobby Lashley has also been said to have been cleared for a return. In addition, there are reports that Brock Lesnar, former 3-time WWE champ, is in talks with 3 pro-wrestling organizations including WWE. Other rumors mention former WWE stars Sid Vicious and Big Show, but no confirmations have been made of any signings as of this entry.

It has been mentioned Mark Henry may retire after his Unforgiven match, or soon after. Ric Flair is also rumored to be retiring as a wrestler in the near future.
