WWE fans are in the habit of seeing old stars return. Nevertheless, the excitement around the returns never dies. Reports are coming in about yet another return of on-screen personality. This time around it’s different because the personality rumored to return is not a performing member. However, some of you would be excited to know that it’s the former General Manager, Theodore aka Teddy Long.

The former SmackDown GM spent quite a lot of time inside WWE. The promotion released Long in 2014. Since then, his on-screen appearances have been scarce. The reports of Long’s return are being built around the WWE Draft of 2023. This report enticed some old-timer fans of the company.

Former WWE personality’s reported return

Teddy Long served WWE for a good amount of time. The former GM was popular for his on-screen appearances. His catchphrases and antics made him stand out among all other personalities. One of them was him pitting a heel “one on one with The Undertaker” while he also announced tag team matches frequently on the blue brand.

Although it has been quite some time since fans heard these words from Long, they might get to listen to it soon.

PW Insider recently reported, “Teddy Long is set to be at tomorrow night’s SmackDown show, as well as next week’s episode of Raw, for the WWE Draft.” As the promotion begins drafting for both its blue and red brands, they might be calling Long to announce the draft picks. The roster will refresh itself starting on SmackDown 04/28 and will continue on the coming Monday Night Raw.

Long is the center of attention right now because of the reports associating him with the draft event. However, another WWE legend recently dropped news about his return to the company soon that you could’ve missed.
