Unless you have the vision of an eagle, you might have missed the returns or appearances of some Superstars that haven't been featured on TV since WrestleMania. And, unless they lasted to the end or were given featured exits from the match, you totally missed them.

Superstars like Rusev, Shinsuke Nakamura and Buddy Murphy haven't appeared in a match since 'Mania. Murphy had a vignette and a segment that didn't air on TV during SmackDown as his only appearances on the blue brand.

Chad Gable looked totally different to me without his trademark shoulder-length hair and headband. While I know he changed his look a few weeks ago, I haven't seen him in action to notice it. I thought he might have been one of the Colons until the commentators pointed him out by name.

And even though they made a mark during the Superstar Shake Up, the Viking Raiders haven't appeared on Raw over the last few weeks. Maybe they were off filming vignettes or taking vacations, but they had a notable spot in the middle of the ring with both Heavy Machinery and the Authors of Pain. And speaking of AOP, they had been out of commission due to an injury suffered by Akam.

WWE needed almost all of its hands on deck for the 50-man match. Since some stars either didn't want to go (Daniel Bryan, Kevin Owens) or weren't allowed to (Aleister Black, Sami Zayn), we got to see some wrestlers for the first time since 'Mania.
