A former WWE NXT Champion is rumored to be making a return to the company at some point in the very near future.
According to a recent report/rumor from Xero News, former North American Champion Bronson Reed is likely to be signing in the near future.
“I’m told Bronson Reed is very likely going to sign a deal with WWE, he may return in the Rumble match. HHH wants a few surprises in his first Rumble” the site claimed on Twitter.
Former NXT Champion returning to WWE?
It’s worth noting that this rumor from Xero News is just that, a rumor, as we are unable to verify whether or not the report is legitimate at this time.
A number of different sites have claimed that Reed is close to signing a deal, with Dave Meltzer revealing on Wrestling Observer Radio that he may choose to re-sign with New Japan or head back to WWE.
Triple H was clearly a fan of the behemoth Superstar, so it would make sense for him to be making a massive return at the Royal Rumble or potentially even before.
