The WWE Universe was shocked when Jason Jordan was revealed as Kurt Angle's illegitimate child. The company attempted to tell his story, that of a spoiled brat that wanted special privileges, and then an unfortunate injury happened which forced Jordan to sit out WrestleMania. Like him or hate him, it is impossible to deny that this was a pretty unfortunate development.

Rumours have emerged that Jordan could return as early as next week. How will WWE bring him back from injury, you ask? Well, look no further than this article, folks.

While we cannot predict how Jordan will return, we shall attempt to wager a few guesses. Here are 5 possibilities for the very same.

Let us know in the comments how you think Jordan could possibly return!


#5 Taking out Roman Reigns during his Backlash match

There is literally no reason for Reigns and Joe to be facing each other at Backlash this weekend. Following the contest, the two men will be on separate brands. Could the entire point of this match have been to facilitate Jason Jordan's imminent WWE return? Bear with us as we tell you why that could very well be the case.

Jason Jordan missed WrestleMania 34, the biggest show of the year. His sole focus at this moment will be getting into his father's good books once again, by taking out the biggest player in WWE. And who is bigger than The Big Dog, when it comes to hierarchy?

Reigns vs. Jordan will be a huge step up for Kurt Angle's kayfabe son. It could be a program to keep Reigns occupied on RAW, while he challenges for the Universal Championship again down the line.

#4 Confronting Rollins on RAW next week

Not very long ago, Seth Rollins and Jason Jordan were RAW Tag Team Champions. And then, Jordan's unfortunate injury forced him to sit on the sidelines while Rollins went from accolade to accolade. Could Jordan return to take out his ire on Seth Rollins? In the process, he would effectively go heel and then feud with the Intercontinental Champion.

Rollins needs strong competitors to defend the Intercontinental Championship against in the coming months. Jordan is a great in-ring competitor and also has history with Seth Rollins. These two men will be able to put on some incredible matches down the line and maybe get Jordan over as a heel in the long run.

Jordan needs to appear as a crybaby with a chip on his shoulder, and that's the only way he will get over. His character hasn't been able to connect with the audience and the boos for him are often thunderous.

#3 Taking out Chad Gable

Once, Gable and Jordan were the best of friends as part of the tag team unit, American Alpha. Then, Jordan was drafted to RAW and separated from his tag team partner. Could Jordan return only to take down Gable, who's been receiving a singles push on RAW? Jordan vs. Gable could be a very interesting feud.

Gargano and Ciampa proved recently that two teammates can put on the best kind of matches with the right kind of heat. Could Gable and Jordan recreate the same kind of magic on RAW?

#2 As a SmackDown Live Superstar

Be it as a heel or a babyface, Jason Jordan could be a pretty interesting addition to SmackDown Live. There may be more opportunities for him in the blue brand as opposed to the red one. This is because RAW is already filled to the brim with talent. Jordan may have a better chance to shine on brand blue.

As a babyface, Jordan could feud with Samoa Joe, Nakamura or Big Cass, down the line. As a heel, he could have matches against AJ Styles, Daniel Bryan or even lower down the card, against competitors such as Tye Dillinger. Possibilities galore exist for this talented young superstar, in the months that follow.

Jordan could also become a tag team competitor down the line. Maybe an alliance with someone like Dillinger could do him a world of good.

#1 Attacking Kurt Angle from behind

This could be the feud we've all been waiting for
This could be the feud we've all been waiting for

Jason Jordan was once a devoted son to Kurt Angle. And then an injury-disrupted everything for the talented young man. It was clear that WWE was heading towards Angle vs. Jordan somewhere down the line. Because of the injury the plans never really materialized.

What better way to reintroduce Jordan into the roster than as a heel attacking his beloved father? And then Jordan could drop the bombshell. Jordan was never really his son to begin with!

Fans love to see Kurt Angle wrestle even at his advanced age. They would love to see Jordan mix it up with Kurt Angle.

Angle could do the honours and lay down for Jason Jordan.
