"He could win the Royal Rumble" - WWE Universe reacts to the possibility of former champion returning after 3 years

Under Triple H's regime as the head booker, a number of superstars have returned to WWE. There is no indication that the returns will not continue post-WrestleMania 39 and Matt Cardona is one of the names often touted to make a comeback. Fans have had their say on the possibility of the same.Matt Cardona spent 15 years in WWE wrestling as Zack Ryder. He had a fairly successful run in the company, winning the United States Championship, Intercontinental Championship and the RAW Tag Team Championship twice.However, Matt was released in April 2020 alongside his tag team partner Curt Hawkins as part of the COVID-19 budget cuts. Since then, he has enjoyed an excellent run on the independent scene, getting over with the fans. He also wrestled in AEW alongside Cody Rhodes.There has been speculation in recent months that the former Zack Ryder could return to WWE in the near future. Cardona himself has teased a comeback on multiple occasions. As they always do, fans had plenty to say on this possibility.

This girl is 6 ft tall, she can kick my fu*king a**, she's got piercings all over her face, so I'm like, 'Hey, Chelsea, do you mind if I ask this girl if she wants to be my heater?'&quot; He continued, explaining how they moved forward after getting the green light.&quot;Once she said yes, when Chelsea gave me the green light, I brought it up to Steph, and then we did Australia, she came and helped me and Brian Myers. We did GCW, we just did the ECW Arena, and we've got more bookings coming up, so we're going to run with that for a while,&quot; he added.
