Five wrestlers that the WWE should bring back

From hitting the lowest ratings in 15 years to seeking seat filler for the events, WWE has been experiencing a dark age in the recent years. There is no doubt about the talent that the company possesses but the lack of main event superstars might be the problem that the creative team is facing when looking to bring out crowd pulling storylines. And WWE has come to a stage when WrestleMania is the only event to look forward to. Vince McMahon should definitely pull out a good looking rabbit out of the hat to keep the company afloat so here’s a look at the possible superstars, whose returns could give the company another dimension.

5. Jeff Hardy

It might be a bit unfair for the younger talent in the company but the return of Hardy could offer many new possibilities for the creative team. He is not one of those big main event wrestlers but Hardy definitely is someone who can make the crowd roar both with the microphone and his fly flying style. It will be interesting to see Hardy being put up against the lights of Daniel Bryan and Rob Van Dam and WWE will not have to look further to end their mid-card crisis if they could snatch this guy from TNA.

4. Shelton Benjamin

Like Hardy he is not one of the wrestlers who could be a WrestleMania main eventer but Shelton Benjamin’s versatility is something that the WWE needs at the moment. He could be instrumental in giving push for the young wrestlers like Fandango and Bray Wyatt as he can pull out an entertaining match even if he’s losing. As one of the most athletically gifted wrestler, Benjamin could still be a valuable member in the roster who can pull out occasional main events and great ladder matches.

3. Batista

Batista clearly said that his reason for leaving the company was the wrong direction and was he right or what? He left a huge hole in the company WWE has failed miserably in their attempts to fill that hole with Ryback proving that there might not be a youngster to match Batista’s charisma in the ring. He could easily redecorate the World Heavyweight Championship that has been pushed back to a second tier status behind the WWE title. Batista could be incorporated to numerous storylines including reigniting the feud with John Cena who is all set to return in Royal Rumble.

2. Edge

Now, he might not be fit enough to be an active wrestler for a long run but what WWE can get from Edge is his in-ring presence, which itself is a big thing. It will be treat for the eyes to see the wrester work with the youngsters and play big roles in storylines even if he don’t wrestle. Edge could fit into the current Triple H-Daniel Bryan storyline being in the side of Bryan and give him a much better push to stardom. Occasional in-ring performances in big pay-per-views can also be an advantage of bringing Edge back.

1. Goldberg

He is one of the most celebrated names in the wrestling business and added with the fitness he possesses, Goldberg will be a perfect fit for the company at the current moment. The return of Goldberg might not be far away after the wrestler recently became nostalgic about the company following the launch of his new DVD. Along with the recent exchange of words with Ryback has dropped further hint about his comeback that could propel the company back into the limelight. Goldberg fighting against the lights of John Cena, CM Punk and Daniel Bryan or a WrestleMania match against Undertaker- it’s all mouthwatering prospects for a WWE fan.
