The New Day’s 10th anniversary celebration could mark Big E‘s return to Monday Night RAW after nearly three years away. Kofi Kingston recently hinted at his stablemate’s appearance, suggesting the milestone event would be incomplete without the former WWE Champion.

The potential return comes at a crucial time, as tensions between Xavier Woods and Kingston have escalated in recent months, threatening the stability of the legendary faction. Big E’s presence could be instrumental in preventing a potential breakup, helping restore harmony between his longtime partners during this significant celebration.

Big E has openly expressed his desire to return to in-ring competition, and his last appearance on RAW dates back to January 10, 2022. Adam Pearce is reportedly preparing a dedicated episode to commemorate The New Day’s decade-long journey, potentially setting the stage for the 38-year-old star’s comeback.

Adam Pearce sparks Brock Lesnar return speculation with cryptic social media post

RAW General Manager Adam Pearce has intensified return rumors by sharing an image featuring himself alongside Paul Heyman and former WWE Champion Brock Lesnar. The timing of the post has generated significant buzz, particularly with Roman Reigns’ Bloodline still seeking its fifth member for Survivor Series: WarGames.

Pearce’s social media activity included additional photos with various WWE personalities, including Big E, John Cena, Shane McMahon, and Buddy Murphy. However, the Lesnar image has drawn particular attention given his connection to Paul Heyman and his absence since SummerSlam 2023, where he lost to Cody Rhodes at Detroit’s Ford Field.

The Beast Incarnate was originally scheduled for Crown Jewel before plans changed. While his status remains uncertain, WWE has continued to reference him in press conferences, suggesting a potential return could be in the works.
