Being a WWE Superstar isn't an easy gig, and though every wrestler sets out to have a long and lengthy career, that is easier said than done.

In an industry where injuries are an occupational hazard, there are no shortage of wrestlers who have left the WWE, either because they were hurt or by their own choice.

But though at times it looked like these Superstars would never enter a WWE ring again, we all know to never say never when it comes to the Sports Entertainment juggernaut.

Here are three WWE comeback matches that were epic, and 3 that were major disappointments.

#3 Epic return: The Hardy Boys come back at WrestleMania 33

The Hardy Boyz are one of the legendary tag teams in professional wrestling history. Regardless of the promotions they work for, Matt & Jeff Hardy never failed to leave their marks, and they made shockwaves throughout the industry starting in 2016 when Matt Hardy debuted his Broken Universe gimmick in Impact Wrestling.

The gimmick became a huge hit among the wrestling fans and breathed new life into the pair's careers, which had stagnated over the years. When they rejoined WWE, The Hardy Boyz made their huge return at WrestleMania 33 and won the Raw Tag Team Championships in a tag team fatal four-way ladder match. The crowd reaction alone was evident that the Hardy Boyz will always hold a special place in the hearts of the pro-wrestling fans.

Though their reign didn't last long, the pair of brothers showed why they are considered by many to be the greatest tag team in wrestling history.
