Mustafa Ali returned to WWE television after a long time away. He was on SmackDown previously and was supposed to return for the hacker storyline. While we'll get back to that on the next page, this is specifically with regards to Ali's return to WWE RAW.

According to Tom Colohue, MVP was one of the people vocal about bringing Mustafa Ali back. He said that MVP is using his presence backstage to put over the right people:

When it comes to his return, this comes as a result of availability. But I personally couldn't be happier for him. If there were more people there, I worry that he would not have got that chance. And he is someone who deserves to at least be on TV. He has had WWE Championship matches quite recently. He had so much momentum on SmackDown. On RAW, he took his chance and got something good out of it. Everyone else in that match wanted him to pick up that win. MVP has a strong voice backstage, and I think he is using it right to put people over."

We hope this is true because we always like hearing about selfless veterans who have an eye for the future. It also makes sense since Ali pinned MVP on his return.
