Adam Pearce has been stirring up speculation about potential returns ahead of WWE Survivor Series, sharing cryptic posts about several big names. One of the most notable teases involved Shane McMahon, the 54-year-old WWE legend who has been absent from television for over 600 days. Pearce shared a throwback photo of himself with Shane from a 2018 SmackDown episode, where Shane intervened during a brawl between Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles. This has led many to wonder if Shane McMahon might be making his return to WWE, despite his last appearance being at WrestleMania 39 where he suffered an injury during an impromptu match with The Miz.
Additionally, Pearce has also hinted at the potential return of Big E, who has been sidelined since March 2022 due to a serious neck injury. Pearce shared a backstage photo with the former WWE Champion, suggesting Big E could make an appearance around The New Day’s 10th-anniversary celebrations.
Fans are eagerly anticipating surprises as WWE builds towards Survivor Series, with rumors circulating about the return of Shane McMahon, Big E, and possibly even Brock Lesnar, as Pearce has previously teased. As always in WWE, anything can happen, so fans are keeping their eyes peeled for unexpected returns.
