Eugene (real name Nick Dinsmore) made his official WWE return at Saturday night’s SmackDown/ECW house show in New Hampshire.
Eugene was released on September 1, 2007 for reportedly receiving his third strike in the WWE Wellness program.
Eugene wrestled Ricky Ortiz in the third match on the card, and is expected to feud with Ortiz when he returns to TV on the SmackDown brand. His return is rumored for the August 7th episode, but things can always change.
According to official documents released earlier this year, WWE released Eugene for his third failed Wellness test.
