Ric Flair
Heading 2
At WrestleMania XXIV, "Nature Boy" Ric Fair retired at the top of his game, in a classic match against Shawn Michaels. Unfortunately, this was one of those scenarios where the retirement decision was made for the performer. Unsurprisingly, Flair's retirement didn't last. He would sign a one year deal with TNA in 2010.
Daniel Bryan
Heading 2
When Daniel Bryan was forced to prematurely retire in 2016, the wrestling world felt like it was robbed of one of the greatest performers of this generation. However, at WrestleMania 34,Bryan resumed his career, tagging with Shane McMahon to take on Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn.
The Edge
Heading 2
2020 provided us with one of the best returns in WWE history. After retiring abruptly in 2011 and undergoing triple fusion neck surgery, Edge made his glorious return at Royal Rumble 2020.
Undertaker
The Undertaker retired after WrestleMania 33. The ugly truth about the matter is that if Vince McMahon wouldn't have asked The Undertaker to return, he would've more than likely remained retired. The instant classic that was the Boneyard Match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36 was a much more appropriate ending to such an iconic career.
Shawn Michaels
When Shawn Michaels came back from a four-year retirement at SummerSlam 2002, many fans had no idea what to expect. Michaels continued his impressive return at Survivor Series 2002, winning the World Heavyweight Championship in the first-ever Elimination Chamber match.
