On Smackdown LIVE this week we saw the return of RHYNO to the WWE. He had been previously working in NXT and looks like he is going to be on Smackdown full time from now on. We also saw a vignette for Shelton Benjamin to return to Smackdown! The former Intercontinental, United States and Tag Team Champion will be returning soon and exclusively to the Smackdown brand! There are also some more names being floated as potential returns to the company.

According to PWInsider, Jinder Mahal is confirmed to return to WWE TV on the RAW brand soon. Mahal worked in the WWE from 2011 until 2014 before being released from the company. He has worked on the independents ever since.

It is also confirmed by PWInsider that Curt Hawkins will be joining the Smackdown brand. Hawkins is a former WWE Tag Champ with Zack Ryder. He has been wrestling under his real name: Brian Myers since leaving the WWE a couple years ago.

Other names rumored in their report are: Melina, MVP, Carlito, Stevie Richards and Tommy Dreamer. These are only rumored though and nothing concrete.

Looks like the WWE is really reaching out to former talent to give them another chance. Would personally really love to see MVP and Carlito back with the company!

Let us know what you think of any of these names returning!!!
