5 former WWE Superstars that should be welcomed back with open arms

Would Vince allow this power-couple to come back?

#4 Damien Sandow

The month of May 2016 was a month that will not be forgotten by wrestling fans for a long time. It was the month in which Alex Riley, Hornswoggle, Zeb Colter, Wade Barrett, Santino Marella, El Torito, Cameron and yes... Damien Sandow were all released from their WWE contracts.

The release of Damien Sandow left the WWE Universe in complete shock. Sandow was one of the most beloved Superstars by fans, not to mention he was one heck of a storyteller inside the ring. Simply put, there was absolutely no reason for Sandow to be let go.

Even though Sandow landed on his feet quickly after leaving WWE, things have not been the same for the Intellectual Savior of the Masses. WWE is the only platform capable of offering Sandow the stage he needs to be successful. Regardless of where he goes, WWE will always be where it makes the most sense.

Back in April of 2017, Sandow made the announcement that he was no longer a part of the Impact Wrestling roster. He was taking a break from wrestling, in order to pursue possible acting opportunities.

With that said, there's no better time than now for Vince to personally call Sandow, then apologise for allowing him to slip through the cracks, beg for forgiveness, sign him back to a lucrative contract and push him to the moon.

You're welcome!
