Talk about Chris Jericho possibly leaving AEW has started many new discussions in wrestling. Some reports suggest he could return to WWE in the future. Nothing is confirmed yet, but this situation has made fans think about other AEW names who might also consider going back.
Here are a few well known AEW personalities who could follow a similar path if the right opportunity comes.
Billy Gunn Could Think About a Return
Billy Gunn has been part of AEW since the early days. He worked as both a coach and an on screen performer. He teamed with his sons and also had success with The Acclaimed group.
Recently, he has not appeared regularly on TV. Some reports say younger talent is getting more focus. If his role stays limited, a return to WWE could become an option, especially because of his long history there.
Even if he stays behind the scenes in AEW, fans still believe WWE could welcome him back in some form.
Paul Wight Might Look for One Last Run
Paul Wight, known to many fans as The Big Show from his WWE days, joined AEW mainly as a commentator and occasional wrestler. He has appeared in special matches and other segments over the last few years.
He has spoken before about wanting one final run before retirement. If AEW cannot offer that soon, WWE could become a realistic choice. The company often gives legends farewell storylines or ambassador roles.
That kind of send off could attract him back.
Adam Copeland and Christian Cage Future Possibilities
Adam Copeland and Christian Cage reunited in AEW after many years apart. They had both rivalry and partnership moments, which kept fans interested.
Their current AEW run has slowed recently, and both are already legends of the wrestling world. Even if they finish wrestling in AEW, many fans believe WWE could invite them back for a Hall of Fame induction as a famous tag team.
Such recognition would celebrate their long career and strong impact on tag team wrestling.
Why Moves Like These Happen
Wrestling careers often change direction based on contracts, creative plans, health, and personal goals. Sometimes legends return to earlier companies for nostalgia, final matches, or special honors.
Promotions also benefit from familiar faces because they attract longtime fans.
