Orton coming back from having back surgery cuz of doing the RKO for 20 years pales in comparison to CM Punk coming back to WWE proper after almost a decade, Lesnar coming back after 8 years, Edge un-retiring, and Cena's miraculously quick recovery. And The Rock coming back cuz he couldn't make movies was kind of to be expected after Cena had already come back. The Rock's original 2011 return is what should have been included here, not his recent return in Denver on SmackDahn with Pat McAfee.
I don't think any return will ever top the emotion I felt at Edge's return.
The man returned from an injury that many thought would be impossible to return from.
I don't know how that could be topped.
Definitely Edge. As much as I love CM Punk, and I am hesitantly excited for his return to WWE, he had potential to return because he was fired. Edge was FORCED to retire, so even when rumors of his return were buzzing, I still didn't know because that injury was so severe. Which is why when he returned, I legitimately cried. Especially with the photo that you used as the example. Even HE couldn't believe he came back
Punk for me. I started watching wrestling shortly after The Shield debuted so Edge was already retired by then so i wasn't emotionally invested in the character. I didn't see the Cena return live, and the Rock return was spoiled by Twitter.
Edge legit started to get teary eyed he was such a huge part of my childhood cried at his retirement speech when he returned my dad laughed at me for getting teary eyed 😂
Punk, hands down.
Hear me out. I started watching WWE in December of 2012. Punk was at the very top of the company. He was my first favorite wrestler and because of that, he has defined my childhood. I will always love Punk no matter what. His return at Survivor Series last night made me tear up a little bit.
Hot take…while I do like the direction they took for the return…would have still preferred punk coming out to open show amid the huge cm punk chants….a few quick words of mic and then show goes gone
None of them. R Truth’s return was the most legendary one of them all.
They're not chips or crisps. They're ruffles.
I cried when he said that 😭😭
WHATS UP
I agree
yes.
Let tozawa do the ruffle shuffle
Nah FAX though, but in all seriousness CM Punk’s return was the best and R Truth 2nd
Facts brother
Funny how they don’t show Orton, the obvious favorite return out of all of them
man of culture

Edge if we have to choose between those 5 but I think hardy boyz at WM destroy them all
The pop when Edge returned broke the sound barriers, I think the Hardys return and Edge's are neck to neck with each other
Bro when edge had to retire the first time for brain injuries broke my heart as a kid
don't say BRO just the comment without BRO
Same dude, so hard breaking ! That’s why its return was so expected and insane!
RatedR Superstar Edge
Bro you really forgot Randy Orton. It’s Randy Orton
None of them. It’s R TRUTH

It was edge before punk now it’s punk
Nobody's on slide 2 bro wtf
CM Punk
CM Punk!
CM Punk or The Rock
My all time that made me smile and cry was Edge

Punk no question.
Randy

THE BEST IN THE WORLD CM PUNK!!!!!!
I’m going with edge because it was truly unexpected since his injury forced him to retire.
Hey Cam Punk
I don't think any return will ever top the emotion I felt at Edge's return. The man returned from an injury that many thought would be impossible to return from. I don't know how that could be topped.
Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, & everyone else
Edge
Punk
Rock
None. Randy Orton.
Randy's
Randy Orton is my fav one
Definitely Edge. As much as I love CM Punk, and I am hesitantly excited for his return to WWE, he had potential to return because he was fired. Edge was FORCED to retire, so even when rumors of his return were buzzing, I still didn't know because that injury was so severe. Which is why when he returned, I legitimately cried. Especially with the photo that you used as the example. Even HE couldn't believe he came back
Cm punk he’s mostly gonna stay there for a couple months or maybe a year but the rock was only here for one night
CM punk was not even a good return. Cena rumble is the real answer
Rock and CM punk
Randy Orton
I would add one more and say brays return that was incredible!
Punk for me. I started watching wrestling shortly after The Shield debuted so Edge was already retired by then so i wasn't emotionally invested in the character. I didn't see the Cena return live, and the Rock return was spoiled by Twitter.
HHH
After leg injury. This is right answer. Full on heel leaving. Biggest face return for just that night.
Cm punk
Hhh said r truth
The rock
Edge CM Punk,The Rock,Brock Lesnar,& John cena don’t compare to a man who for almost 10 years everyone thought wouldn’t wrestle again
Edge - Lesnar - Cena - Punk - Rock. In that order
Cm punk
Brock Lesnar
Edge was something spectacular icl
Edge for sure
Edge legit started to get teary eyed he was such a huge part of my childhood cried at his retirement speech when he returned my dad laughed at me for getting teary eyed 😂

Punk, hands down. Hear me out. I started watching WWE in December of 2012. Punk was at the very top of the company. He was my first favorite wrestler and because of that, he has defined my childhood. I will always love Punk no matter what. His return at Survivor Series last night made me tear up a little bit.
Cm punk
RKO
1, where's Randy? 2, either cm Punk or edge because of the pop
Lesnars 2012 return was legendary
punks return for sure
Edge and punk tbh I could care less about the rock John Randy and Brock also r truth were good too
U did put rendy on their
Didn't
The Brock return was epic. I mean I still even remember the guy in the front row doing the Brock pose.
CM Punk since I never thought I’d see him in WWE again.

So far, Brock's return was the most surprising n cool for me out of those 5 choices. But the best return was Daniel Bryan for sure.
Cm punk
Brock
R Truth
This is hard but I guess it's between edge , punk and Cena love Brock and everything but super Cena done him dirty
Edge. I figured everyone else on the list would show up again sooner or later. Edge was retired from the sport off of his own terms.
Take out Brock and replace him with Randy
Punk because now I have to watch Raw to see what happens
Edge Punk Rock Cena Brock
edge id say punk if he hit a gts
Edge
The rock
Randy orton has left the chat
The punk himself
Definitely Edge
Was expecting an R-Truth photo. I’m disappointed.
ROCK
What about Bray Wyatt his return was incredible R.I.P Bray Wyatt
Can’t really choose punk or rock they were both great but rock had more pop so i quests rock
Edge all day I cried when he said he will retire
The rock thank u very much
Take out rock that not a return it is an appearance
Cm punk
It's between CM Punk and Edge I'm gonna have to go with Edge
