This week on Monday Night Raw, Bronson Reed made a surprise return to Wwe, helping Miz defeat Dexter Lumis in a ladder match. According to Fightful Select, Reed was a “priority hire” for WWE under the Triple H regime, with Reed leaving New Japan, where he had been working as Jonah, to return. While Reed has not wrestled since October, he has been talking about New Japan’s January 4 Wrestle Kingdom event to hide a potential WWE return. Reed is a former NXT North American Champion but was released from WWE in August 2021.

Reed is a force. Check out what he has done in WWE:

Opinion: Having Reed back is a smart move as he is someone who never had a chance to show what he could do on the main roster. He was a monster in NXT and that Tsunami splash of his is something else, but at some point he has to be able to try his luck against top WWE competition. At least he seems to be getting a chance here, and things are off to a nice start.
