Former WWE Superstar TJ Wilson, previously known as Tyson Kidd during his time as an in-ring performer, returns as a producer tonight, according to new reports.

Wilson has not been listed as a producer within Vince McMahon's company since the Royal Rumble in January. This led to rumors about a potential release for the former Tag Team Champion. Wilson, however, firmly stated that his time working backstage for WWE had not come to an end and new reports coming out of Fightful Select seem to confirm this.

Wilson has been listed as a producer for a women's match on tonight's edition of WWE's flagship show. The report referred to him as an influential name backstage and noted that his return would be good news for WWE's women's roster. It was also mentioned that Molly Holly, Shawn Daivari and Pat Buck have been working on the majority of the women's segements on WWE television as of late.
