#9. Daniel Bryan
It's been almost four months since the WWE Universe last saw Daniel Bryan, as the former WWE Champion last wrestled back in June. According to The Wrestling Observer, Bryan's absence coincided with the final month of Brie Bella's pregnancy and it allowed the couple to remain safe ahead of Buddy's birth.
A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.
Buddy is now almost two months old, but there is no update on when Bryan would want to leave his family and make his return. The Amway Center has seen the return of Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn in recent months so it's thought to be safe for the former Champion to make his return ahead of the upcoming WWE Draft.
#8. Elias was last seen on WWE TV in June
Elias was taken out of action as part of the hit and run outside of The Performance Center back in June. The former Intercontinental Champion was part of the feud between Jeff Hardy and Sheamus, and they had to write him off WWE TV because he suffered a pectoral tear.
At the time that Elias was sidelined, he was given 6-9 months as a recovery time which means that the star could make his return in time for The Royal Rumble or even WrestleMania 37.
