Sometimes you get a surprise. This weekend, WWE presented Starrcade as a special house show. The event certainly has some history to it, even in WWE as it was held last year as well. The card was stacked and featured two steel cage matches and a special appearance from Ric Flair. However, in addition to the big card, there was a special surprise for the fans in attendance.

Bray Wyatt made his return at Starrcade, answering an open challenge from Baron Corbin and defeating him with a rollup. After the pin, Corbin restarted the match with no disqualifications. This brought out Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre to beat Wyatt down but Elias and Finn Balor made the save, allowing Wyatt to pick up the win with Sister Abigail. This was Wyatt’s first match since September 15 on Monday Night Raw. There is no word on when Wyatt will return to TV.

How about a fresh one of these?

Opinion: Cool. Wyatt being back is a good sign as the company can always use more star power. Hopefully he’s in a better place now as he was running on fumes for a long time. We still haven’t seen him have a solo face run and it could be interesting to see where he could take such a character. If nothing else he was a very nice surprise and a good way to pop the crowd.

What do you think of Wyatt? How will he do when he comes back to television? Let us know in the comments below.
