Wrestlers We Don't Want To See Return To WWE

Ever since Triple H took cost in WWE, a swathe of wrestlers discovered their method again below the WWE banner. These included the likes of CM Punk, Andrade, Carlito, Dexter Lumis, Braun Strowman, Naomi, and a number of other extra, all with various levels of success and failure.

When trying throughout the skilled wrestling panorama and amongst many veterans who’re not within the firm, there are specific names we don’t wish to see Triple H convey again. Whether or not or not it’s because of the particular person themselves or WWE simply not being the correct match, the next wrestlers shouldn’t be returning to WWE.

Rusev

There Are Too Many “Monster Heels” In WWE

Rusev proved himself to be a terrific monster heel in each WWE and in AEW, however in 2025 there are such a lot of of his ilk on the WWE roster who’re successes, which can make it very exhausting for him to discover a spot on the cardboard that fits him and acknowledges his abilities.

As a substitute, many would like to see Rusev thrive in a promotion like ROH or head over to Japan the place he can actually unfold his wings and never get misplaced within the shuffle. WWE’s monitor report with Rusev is not nice, so it may be greatest if he avoids going again after leaving AEW.

Alberto Del Rio

His Inventory Has Dropped Too A lot For A WWE Return

Alberto Del Rio might have been very gifted, and he should retain lots of his in-ring qualities, however he has garnered a really poor status each inside and outdoors of the ring, so WWE followers actually don’t wish to see him again within the firm.

Del Rio might have had loads of success in WWE on paper, however he was by no means an excellent match and by no means actually bought over with the WWE followers as a heel or as a babyface.

The Good Brothers

They Have Failed Too Many Occasions In WWE

The Good Brothers got their third launch as a WWE tag workforce (and a fourth general for Luke Gallows). This can be a clear signal that WWE is just not the right promotion for them. We do not wish to see the duo return for a fourth time sooner or later, and as an alternative followers would a lot moderately see them exit and thrive in one other firm.

It’s a disgrace how their WWE runs panned out, however for no matter motive the promotion has by no means actually wished to again them.

The Hardy Boyz

Matt & Jeff Hardy Are In Their Twilight Years

Matt & Jeff Hardy lately confirmed again up in TNA, which needs to be counted a blessing for WWE followers. As legendary as The Hardy Boyz are, their AEW run confirmed that they’re a good few steps slower than they as soon as had been, and it could really feel unusual to see them again in WWE at this stage of their careers.

Moreover, the WWE schedule has at all times prompted points in the case of Jeff Hardy’s profession, so in the intervening time at the very least, he ought to steer nicely away from that.

Jon Moxley

He Is Ten Occasions The Performer Outdoors Of WWE

It is extremely unlikely that Jon Moxley will ever return to WWE, although that has been mentioned for a lot of wrestlers, and it’s normally unfaithful. Moxley has turn into a much bigger star, a extra well-rounded performer, and somebody who clearly enjoys his work since leaving WWE, so, for that motive he shouldn’t head again.

AEW is the right match for Moxley, and he ought to stay there for so long as attainable. It might actually be enjoyable to see him in WWE, however his fashion and persona don’t match that setting in any respect.

Velveteen Dream

He Is Too Controversial

As soon as upon a time, Velveteen Dream was a surefire decide for a future world champion. Nevertheless, his profession grew to become drenched in controversy, and it led to him parting methods with WWE, and ever since, his profession has not recovered.

In the beginning of 2024, Dream issued public apologies for his previous actions in what might need been a hope to get re-signed to the corporate. Nevertheless, WWE shouldn’t give in to this, as a result of regardless of his abilities, there may be an excessive amount of controversy connected to his identify.

Toni Storm

Her Finest Years Have Come Outdoors Of WWE

Following her rise to the highest of AEW’s girls’s division, there might very nicely be curiosity in Toni Storm down the road from WWE. Nevertheless, her reserving and remedy within the firm previously shouldn’t be forgotten.

In AEW, there has clearly been artistic freedom and plenty of concentrate on pushing her because the primary identify within the division, which probably wouldn’t occur in WWE. Storm ought to stay in AEW for the lengthy haul.

Cameron Grimes

He Wants To Carve Out His Personal Legacy With out A WWE Return

Cameron Grimes’ reserving on his primary roster WWE run was atrocious. Regardless of a lot charisma and expertise within the ring, Grimes was booked as a glorified enhancement expertise and was finally launched.

Regardless that he ought to by no means have been let go, we don’t wish to see Grimes again in WWE as a result of they clearly don’t see the potential in him. As a substitute, Grimes ought to climb up the ranks on the impartial scene and doubtlessly in an organization reminiscent of TNA or AEW, the place his skills will be maximized.

Goldberg

His Latest Runs In WWE Have Been Irritating

On account of Goldberg’s star energy, there’ll at all times be a slight push, whether or not that be from followers or somebody in administration, to convey him again another time, particularly because the man himself desires a retirement match.

Nevertheless, this could not happen in WWE. Goldberg’s varied returns and feuds in WWE ever since 2016 have principally been an entire dud, taking spots from full-time stars and squashing the likes of Kevin Owens and Bray Wyatt. It appears as if WWE are in actual fact set to convey Goldberg in another time, however that does not imply followers really need it.

Eva Marie

She Has Had Too Many Failures In WWE

For no matter motive, WWE has tended to show again to Eva Marie on occasion to try to make her a star. She has failed at each given alternative as a result of, regardless of some respectable character work, she has merely by no means discovered the expertise wanted to reach the ring.

We don’t wish to see Marie return to WWE ever once more, particularly since she has not gained any form of additional wrestling expertise in her time outdoors WWE.

Shane McMahon

The Title Of McMahon Is A Controversial One

Shane McMahon has plenty of star energy, there is no such thing as a denying that, however within the present day panorama of WWE, he doesn’t slot in in anyway.

WWE’s concentrate on full-time names has been refreshing, constructing new stars as an alternative of counting on part-timers and names from earlier eras.

There have been rumors of Shane McMahon heading to AEW, with Tony Khan in a current interview with Sports activities Illustrated stating that McMahon was welcome any time in AEW. This might save WWE followers from additional returns if he does head to the opposite promotion.

Brock Lesnar

Lesnar Is Nonetheless Below Contract, However Ought to Not Return

Even at his rising age, Brock Lesnar has confirmed his world-class expertise time and time once more in WWE. He’s such an enormous identify and would convey much more eyes to the product, however after he was concerned within the Vince McMahon lawsuit, he might now convey the fallacious form of eyes.

With how nice WWE has been within the final 12 months or so and with the brand new full-time stars constructed, reverting to a part-timer like Lesnar is an excessive amount of of a threat. He should be contracted, however Lesnar shouldn’t return to WWE programming.
