10 Legends Who Need To Return To The WWE
HBKWrestlers in the WWE connect with the fans. The successful ones are intertwined with the WWE Universe for eternity. Take the late-Dusty Rhodes, Ultimate Warrior and Roddy Piper for example. All three are WWE legends and will never leave the Hall of Fame. On top of the WWE being so enigmatic, the wrestlers in the ring are there to entertain the masses.When it’s done right, pro wrestling is one of the greatest events on the planet. When those special set of WWE stars depart the company, it’s tough to imagine a company without them. Whether they depart for injury reasons, basic retirement or by simple frustration, they leave a mark that can’t be replicated. Edge is the perfect example of this phenomena. He’s one of the most decorated WWE stars in history.Unfortunately, his career was cut short due to injury-related reasons. Doctors said that if he hit another spear on an opponent, his life could’ve been spent in a wheelchair. WWE made the wise decision to force Edge into retirement, but his legacy won’t be forgotten. Those lucky enough to be able to return are greeted with an uproar of cheers from the fans. However, often times they don’t stay. Batista, Shawn Michaels, the Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Ric Flair make surprise returns and are there for a short period of time.Just recently, the Dudley Boyz returned to a starstruck-Brooklyn crowd. Now, they want to become 10-time WWE Tag-Team champions. This slideshow will take a look at the 10 WWE stars from the past that need to return.
#1 Rob Van Dam
Rob Van Dam returned to the WWE last year for another run with the company at Money in the Bank. He didn’t win a championship while on this run, but WWE fans from all around the world felt the nostalgia the moment his music hit.
Why should RVD return to the WWE? He’s a solid mid-card guy who can help stabalize any new WWE NXT star that jumps to the main roster. RVD isn’t even needed in the main event. When Sami Zayn and Hideo Itami get promoted, they’ll need a solid feud. Plus, a match pitting RVD against Neville is worthy of a co-main event role. Plus, it’d elevate all three men even higher on the main roster.
