#4 WWE Superstar Elias (Attacked by Edge at WWE SummerSlam 2019)

No one expected to see WWE Superstar Edge wrestle in a WWE ring after the Rated-R Superstar announced his retirement in 2011. Yet, he was able to make a miraculous comeback last year.

But the Royal Rumble wasn't the first time when Edge made a triumphant return to WWE. In fact, seeds of his comeback were planted back in August 2019. During the SummerSlam 2019 kick-off show, WWE Superstar Elias decided to sing a song.

But before the Drifter could wrap up his song, he was interrupted by Edge. The 11-time World Champion kept things short and sweet and hit Elias with a spear. This was his first spear in over eight years. Not only that, but this segment also prompted the wrestling community to start talking about Edge's "potential" in-ring return.

Despite WWE SummerSlam 2019 being an eventful pay-per-view, Edge and Elias' segment emerged as one of the most talked-about parts of the night. It will be interesting to see if Edge and Elias ever get to share the same ring again.
