Former Cruiserweight Champion Jamie Noble hasn't competed in a wrestling ring since 2015. His wrestling career was cut short by a severe back injury in 2009, which he sustained after being powerbombed through a table by Sheamus. This, coupled with other minor injuries, led to him announcing his retirement that year.
Thirteen years after his retirement, Noble is set to return to the ring for one last dance. Although he has worked matches here and there in the time that has passed, this will be his most high-profile in-ring appearance. The former J&J Security member will be performing at the WWE Live Holiday Tour event on December 11 at the Charleston Civic Center in Charleston, West Virginia.
