Christian returned to the ring for the Royal Rumble match last night in what was his first actual pro wrestling match since 2014.
According to Dave Meltzer, Christian was “secretly cleared” to return to the ring last week. The 47 year old hadn’t wrestled since 2014 due to suffering multiple concussions and other injuries.
He’s expected to wrestle more in WWE going forward, Meltzer added. PWInsider also says that he’ll continue to wrestle and the belief is that he’ll work a part time schedule.
