Paul Heyman to return with Samoan legend's son; 416 lb monster to re-emerge? 4 stars who are yet to return to WWE TV

WWE is buzzing with excitement, thanks to The Bloodline saga and more, but something's missing without Paul Heyman. He got written off TV by The Bloodline in June 2024.

Paul Heyman last appeared in the ring during the June 28 episode of SmackDown, where he got attacked by Solo Sikoa and the rest of The Bloodline. The legendary manager ended up going through the commentary table for not recognizing Solo as his Tribal Chief.

With Roman Reigns needing his Wiseman more than ever, Paul Heyman might be gearing up for a comeback to the ring. Who else could be making a return? Here are four stars who still haven't made their way back to WWE TV:

#4. Paul Heyman could return with Umaga's son Zilla Fatu

Paul Heyman might take center stage alongside a familiar face, as he could introduce Samoan legend Umaga’s son, Zilla Fatu, to his Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns.

The young real-life Bloodline member resembles his iconic father and also seems eager to make his mark in WWE, potentially teaming up with his cousins in the squared circle. Paul Heyman bringing him to align with Reigns would add a thrilling twist to The Bloodline narrative, enhancing the legacy of the original Bloodline and injecting a surge of drama and excitement into SmackDown.

#3. Brock Lesnar could return on the first episode of WWE RAW on Netflix

Brock Lesnar made his last appearance on WWE TV at SummerSlam 2023, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. Fans are buzzing with anticipation about his possible comeback. The Beast Incarnate could finally grace us with his presence on the first RAW on Netflix, where he could share his intentions to enter the 2025 Men's Royal Rumble Match.

The Beast was recently namedropped by Cody Rhodes on WWE RAW. This led to the belief that he might be gearing up for a return. However, the chances of the former UFC star coming back are still pretty unclear. While WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H seems open to bringing Lesnar back, some legal troubles involving former chairman Vince McMahon might complicate things for The Beast.

#2. Omos could answer LA Knight's potential open challenge

Omos was last spotted on TV on the April 5, 2024, edition of SmackDown, where he took part in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. After that, he disappeared from the screen for reasons that aren't clear.

According to reports, The Nigerian Giant might be getting a new character when he makes his comeback. After being repackaged, he could step up and answer a potential US Title Open Challenge from reigning champion LA Knight.

Notably, Knight was involved in eliminating the 416-pound giant from the SummerSlam Battle Royal last year, and it seems likely he’ll want to settle the score by answering the potential challenge and taking the title away from The Megastar.

#1. Charlotte Flair could return and team up with Rhea Ripley

Charlotte Flair suffered a major injury during a match on SmackDown in December 2023. Following her surgery, she’s been sharing updates on her recovery journey through social media. While there’s been no official announcement about her return, there’s a chance The Queen could surprise everyone at the Survivor Series 2024 Premium Live Event.

She could return to team up with Rhea Ripley. The Eradicator is currently on her own, battling Liv Morgan and The Miracle Kid's new ally, Raquel Rodriguez. Liv is gearing up to take on WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax for the Women's Crown Jewel Title in Saudi Arabia. Even though Jax and Morgan are not on the same page at the moment, they could potentially unite against Ripley.

The heels could then throw down a challenge to the former Judgment Day member to a classic four vs. four showdown in a WarGames Match at Survivor Series. Rhea could be on the lookout for teammates, and one of them could be the returning 16-time Women's Champion.
