As WWE Survivor Series approaches, Adam Pearce, the General Manager of Monday Night RAW, has been teasing the potential return of a 54-year-old legend who has been absent for over 600 days. The individual in question is none other than Shane McMahon, who made a surprising return at WrestleMania 39 before suffering a quadriceps tear during his impromptu match with The Miz. The injury resulted in Snoop Dogg stepping in to finish the bout for him.
After being released from WWE earlier this year, speculation has arisen around Shane McMahon’s future in wrestling, especially after he was spotted with AEW’s Tony Khan. Adam Pearce recently shared a throwback photo of himself and Shane from a 2018 SmackDown episode, sparking rumors about Shane’s return. However, it’s unclear if Pearce’s post is simply a playful tease or a real hint about McMahon’s return.
Additionally, Pearce also hinted at another potential return — former WWE Champion Big E. After suffering a spine injury in March 2022, Big E has been absent from television, but Pearce shared a backstage photo with the 38-year-old, leading fans to speculate about his involvement in WWE’s upcoming New Day 10th anniversary celebration.
As always in the world of professional wrestling, surprises are a constant, and fans are eagerly awaiting any news about potential returns, whether it’s Shane McMahon, Big E, or even Brock Lesnar.
