Kross and Scarlett were among the first names to return to the Stamford-based promotion after Triple H replaced Vince McMahon as the head of creative. While the two arguably did not find much success in their second stint, they became huge fan favorites.


#3. Kevin Owens reaches a huge milestone

Kevin Owens has been an integral part of WWE for over a decade. The Prizefighter officially joined the global juggernaut on August 12, 2014, and has thus completed 11 years with the company.

Owens is currently on the sidelines as he is dealing with a neck injury. He reportedly underwent surgery last month and is expected to be out of action for the foreseeable future.


#4. Bayley to undergo major character change?

Bayley seems to be heading in an unknown direction after suffering several setbacks in WWE. The Role Model said on RAW that she didn't know what to do next.

The Grand Slam Champion has been going through a tough time over the past few months. She did not get a chance to compete at WrestleMania 41 or SummerSlam. She also accidentally cost Lyra Valkyria the Women's Intercontinental Championship at The Biggest Party of the Summer.
