5 WWE returns no one saw coming in 2019  

#4 Brock Lesnar

A shocking turn of events.

Brock Lesnar won a Money in the Bank ladder match. Just let that statement sink in for a second, as there are better chances of Lesnar appearing on 205 Live than 'The Beast' being in a ladder match.

However, WWE had their entire fanbase in utter shock when Lesnar's music blasted over the PA system, and fans had to double check, if they were dreaming when Lesnar unhooked the briefcase. WWE cleverly planted seeds for Lesnar's involvement in this match, as Braun Strowman took out one of the ladder match participants in Sami Zayn earlier in the night.

Zayn's exclusion meant something was going to go down, but no one expected Brock Lesnar to be that surprise. After losing the Universal Title at WrestleMania to Seth Rollins, Lesnar was supposed to take a break from WWE. Therefore, this out of nowhere return sent the WWE Universe into a frenzy, and gave us the most entertaining version of Lesnar in years.

#3 Sasha Banks

New hair, new person.

When Sasha Banks decided to take some time off from WWE, the rumor mill went into a meltdown with different theories and inside information from various sources. Fans heard that Banks walked out after WrestleMania due to the way she was booked at the event, a theory that Banks has since vehemently denied.

Things got even more exciting from that point onward, as Banks stirred the pot online when she slowly started distancing herself from WWE. That is why Banks' return on the RAW after SummerSlam 2019 was so unexpected, as no one thought they would see the former Women's Champion in a WWE ring for quite some time.

Nevertheless, Banks marched down to the ring and destroyed Natalya in front of her hometown crowd to rejuvenate her career in a manner no one thought would be possible.
