Update On More WWE ‘Legends’ Returning To RAW

We reported last week that with the ratings success of the weekly “Legends” segments on RAW, WWE officials are strongly considering making the feature routine by having one former Superstar brought back on every show. In an update on this, the belief is that the re-emergence of former talent such as Vader, Sycho Sid and Bob Backlund caused part of a lapsed wrestling audience to tune in to WWE programming again.

Should WWE continue the angle, names most likely to resurface are Tatanka, Steve Blackman and Big Daddy V as we exclusively reported late last night here on the website. Those three and several other alumnus were contacted to appear on the 1,000th RAW event, but WWE officials ultimately changed their minds and limited the Heath Slater gang beating to the APA and those who had already participated in the storyline.

We’ll keep you posted as we hear more.
