3 WWE Legends Who Could Return in 2025

These days, it’s always a surprise who might appear in the WWE, with the unpredictability not limited to events like the Royal Rumble and SummerSlam alone. Throughout the years, numerous WWE Legends have made unexpected appearances, while others have returned for full-blown feuds across multiple dates. Notable Legends like Trish Stratus, Edge, The Rock, Lita, and John Cena are prime examples of this trend. As we move past mid-year, there’s a strong possibility that three more WWE Legends could make their comeback before the end of the year, with one potential return even happening as early as this month.

3. The Hardys (Matt and Jeff Hardy)

You might initially think, “Weren’t The Hardys already part of NXT this year?” Indeed, they were, and since then, they’ve made multiple appearances there. However, these appearances are a result of their current association with TNA, which WWE has been collaborating closely with for over a year now. This collaboration even extends to WWE talent holding TNA Championships.

The Hardys have frequently clashed with WWE performers during TNA pay-per-views and events, yet they remain part of TNA’s talent roster. Given their positive reception in every WWE appearance during their partnership, it seems imminent that they will return to WWE on a full-time basis. This could happen towards the end of the year, potentially preceding the path to WrestleMania and even the Royal Rumble event.

The Hardys are strongly associated with WWE, and their connection to the organization can be heard in every cheer from the NXT audience. It seems that they have the potential for another significant run with WWE, which may occur sooner rather than later, although if it doesn’t happen this year, it appears to be a certainty at some point in the future.

2. Chris Jericho

It’s no secret that Chris Jericho is a legendary figure in the world of professional wrestling, with his fame extending beyond WWE to All Elite Wrestling (AEW). In fact, Jericho played a significant role in establishing AEW as a force to be reckoned with in the industry. Consequently, if Jericho were to depart from AEW, it would undoubtedly cause quite a stir, especially if speculations of a possible return to WWE materialize.

As I’ve mentioned, it’s plausible since Jericho’s AEW contract is said to expire around year-end. Moreover, the speculation intensifies given Jericho’s recent absence from AEW television (it should be noted that he’s been touring with his band). Interestingly, there have been whispers suggesting a possible reunion between Jericho and WWE could be under consideration through unofficial channels.

Should it transpire, it would mark Chris Jericho’s WWE comeback since the 2018 Royal Rumble. Subsequent stints with New Japan Pro-Wrestling and All Elite Wrestling followed, making that chapter of his career noteworthy indeed. Known for his knack for transformation, Jericho could surely concoct something intriguing if he were to consider another spell in the WWE.

1. AJ Lee

It’s been a week since something that previously seemed more like a dream became increasingly apparent. This shift can be attributed to Monday Night Raw’s recent event, during which Becky Lynch played a significant role in helping her husband Seth Rollins outsmart CM Punk yet again. The following day, she further escalated the situation by confronting Punk in the ring and insulting him, even slapping him, which left him visibly angered and leaving the ring in a fury.

Rumors are circulating strongly that AJ Lee’s WWE comeback is imminent, with Punk’s last words about regretting her actions against him and an earlier joke about displaying a fan’s sign for her being key factors. This potential return could occur within the next week or two, as WWE might be planning a mixed Tag Team match for WrestlePalooza. Interestingly, speculations suggest that her possible appearance may have been inadvertently leaked by the WWE Shop itself.

AJ Lee last stepped into a WWE ring in 2015, but there are signs she might make a comeback following a decade-long absence. If these rumors hold true, fans can anticipate her playing significant roles on both Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown over the coming weeks. Given that WrestlePalooza is slated for September 20th, we won’t have to wait long to see if this potential return comes to fruition.
