Sami Zayn who was teaming with Kevin Owens last year is expected to return very soon. Zayn suffered two torn rotator cuffs during a Montreal Live Event and supposed to be out until 2019 before WrestleMania season.

Last month, WWE aired a vignette for his return on Raw, and he has been seen at the WWE Performance Center training for his in-ring return. He is also rumored to be one of the entrants in the Royal Rumble match.

Now whether he continues to team with Owens or work as an individual superstar needs to be seen. But it would be exciting to see nearly 50,000 fans in Chase Field singing Zayn's theme song.


#3 Bray Wyatt

Bray Wyatt has been absent from WWE for a long time. The last time we saw Wyatt was when he teamed with "Woken" Matt Hardy to win Raw Tag Team Titles. Later on when they lost the titles to the B-Team, both of them vanished from television.

Then it was reported that Hardy took hiatus from in-ring action and will be turning into a backstage producer. Meanwhile, Wyatt was kept off since no storyline was available for him. There were some rumors that WWE was planning to change his gimmick.

Recently, he returned at WWE Starrcade to face Baron Corbin, which began speculation that he might replace an injured Braun Strowman to face Corbin at TLC but that didn't happen. Currently, it is rumored that the former WWE Champion can be a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble match.
