Another "Attitude Era" Star Returning to the ring soon?

[The Hoov]

– Following a several year hiatus, “The Informer†is once again featured in WWE Magazine. Though the monthly column largely consisted of made-up stories, it would at times correctly predict future storylines. The feature is now branded as “WWE gossip†and appears to be a mashup of kayfabe and legitimate backstage tales. Highlights from the October 2011 edition are as follows:

* “Would a certain A-list Hollywood celeb please stop calling our offices in hopes of landing a Raw guest-star slot? You had your chance already, pal!â€

* “I hear a top-level, WWE Hall of Fame-bound Superstar suggested that Natalya use the double sharpshooter at 2010′s WWE TLC.â€

* “During a recent photo shoot, a Superstar demanded that the makeup artist stop touching up the Divas and focus her attention on him!â€

* “A source tells us that The Rock isn’t the only Attitude Era Superstar planning to step in the ring in 2012. Hint: There’s an “E†in his name.â€

Who do you guys think this could be? My opinion, it's Mick FolEy.....but I could be wrong. Thoughts?

 

[John McHenry]

I think it's inevitable that at some point someone will return that was in the attitude era. How many names have an E in them. Hell isn't Kane out on injury. Nothing to fuss over imo

 

[Purple PuNk]

StonE StEvE Austin,
Paul HEyman,
Shawn MichaEls,
KEvin Nash,
Chris JEricho...

The odd thing is didn't The Informer turn out to be Vince Russio? If so how strange that WWE would be something back which was linked to someone who now works for a different promotion.

Anyway I can see Foley returing in the near future, so it would not suprise me if this turned out to be him.

 

[The New F'n Show]

Foley or Stone Cold in my opinion.

 

[Tapout]

I think the most likely ones are Jericho, Foley, and Nash. Nash could do a story with someone. Foley could always be used. Theres nothing he can't be used as. And Jericho is being sorely missed in the ring right now.

Honestly? I hope it's Jericho. But with him being more "active" then any of the other, I can see it being Foley to add more to the Shock factor. I think Foley will tie into the Rock/Cena story. Rock and Sock anyone?

 

[John McHenry]

Nash could also go to any role. Nash Ziggler win, toss vickie

 

[Keith]

They have missed the boat with Nash, should have taken adventege of the reaction he got at the rumble and booked him in a match with Big Show at Mania 27, can't see him returning again now.

 

[John McHenry]

Why they could easily introduce him at the next Rumble he'd most likely have the same reaction since nobody has seen him. Think he'd do ok reaction but personally if this rumor ever pans out I still think people will be disappointed in who it is.

Also how is Stone Cold coming back all that great wasn't he just on two months ago? Think we'd see a diminished reaction if it's him.

 

[The New F'n Show]

Stone Cold only works if he has a match. A return means nothing.

 

[John McHenry]

That would be something but I don't see that happening for anything other than a Wrestlemania and this Wrestlemania has the Rock so it's overkill

 

[Troy]

Since they mention returning to the ring I would say Jericho is the best option. Someone like Kane I wouldn't consider since he was only wrestling a month ago and this makes it sounds like the person is returning from a long break. Foley would be the next best option. Stone Cold wrestling Punk at WM28 would be awesome but I doubt it will happen so I don't think it will be Stone Cold.

 

[The New F'n Show]

I don't think it is Austin either but it is possible. Foley is the most likely for sure.

Yeah but that was the shit the informer used to pull to claim that he was correct.

 

[Troy]

Fair enough, I have never heard about this Informer before so I assumed that it wouldn't be screwy like that. I was hoping it would actually hint at something bigger.
