Major Update On Maria Kanellis’ Return

Guess who’s back. With WWE’s all women’s Evolution pay per view coming up in less than a month, it’s all hands on deck to fill in the promised fifty slots on the card. That many names almost guarantees a battle royal, meaning some of the non-wrestlers will be allowed to work on the show. While it isn’t confirmed, it seems that someone might be back in time for the show.

In a new episode of her Mike and Maria in Wonderland podcast, Kanellis revealed that she has been medically cleared to return to action after her wrist injury. There is currently no word on when her return will take place, though Kanellis had mentioned wanting to return to the company by Evolution. Kanellis has not wrestled a match October 2017 with Impact Wrestling and hasn’t wrestled in WWE since February 2010. The announcement takes place at about 48:00 into the video.

Opinion: I’m still not sure how much success Kanellis is going to be able to have when she gets back. She’s never been much of a worker and while she’s a heck of a talker, that’s in companies where she’s allowed to be herself. Maybe she’ll surprise us, but neither she nor her husband is exactly a can’t miss prospect in WWE. Kanellis certainly has talent, but that doesn’t guarantee success.

Do you think the Kanellises will succeed in WWE? Can Mike’s career be revived? Let us know in the comments below.
