#3 Christian Cage was finally medically cleared to compete
As mentioned previously, Christian Cage had to take early retirement from in-ring competition due to his injuries and multiple concussions. However, the past few years have seen multiple instances of fan-favorite Superstars returning from massive injuries.
It first started with Daniel Bryan coming out of retirement in 2018 and then Christian's best friend and WWE Hall of Famer Edge did the unimaginable by returning to WWE in the 2020 Royal Rumble match, nearly nine years after announcing his retirement.
Christian Cage took a page out of his former tag team partner's book and did the same this year by returning at the 2021 men's Royal Rumble match. According to Edge, Christian was medically cleared to compete a couple of months ago.
"He got cleared a couple of months ago, and I was among only a few people who were privy to that. We didn't know for sure that he was going to be in the Rumble until the Friday before. I was driving to his place to stay with him for the weekend, and that's when we found out this was going to happen."
With him signing with AEW at Revolution tonight, that Royal Rumble appearance was surely not a one-off for him. It will be exciting to see what does the future hold for him in AEW.
