2) Bray Wyatt's return being kept a secret

Former Universal Champion Bray Wyatt is rumored to be returning to WWE under Triple H's regime after being released last year. There have been multiple rumors suggesting that he will eventually be making his return. Xero News has now reported that it is just a matter of when he will return rather than if he will return.

"Source stated last night its more a case of When Bray returns to WWE than If he returns. It is believed due to how big of a return he will be it wont be some random raw/sd or secondary PLE. HHH is keeping all returns secret only a few people in the business know," reported Xero News.

There have been multiple returns since Triple H took charge as the creative head. Unfortunately, most of the returns were sudden and didn't have any proper build. Wyatt is one of the biggest names in the industry and his return should be treated as a big deal.

1) Shinsuke Nakamura to get a major push

Former NXT Champion Shinsuke Nakamura has not been used consistently over the past few years. Despite being a former Royal Rumble winner, he has always been a part of the mid-card division or the tag team division. However, as per Xero News, things are about to change for the Japanese sensation as Triple H 'loves' his work and is set to push him.

"Source have told me that Shinsuke Nakamura will be getting a very decent push either towards the end of the year or early next year. Unknown what the plans are, but Nakamura will be getting a solid push under Hunter, HHH loves Nakamura and his work in and since NXT," reported Xero News.

Nakamura's last major outing was an intercontinental match against Gunther, which he lost. The match was considered one of the best SmackDown main-events in recent times and Nakamura was lauded for his performance against The Ring General.
