Since taking over as the Chief Content Officer of WWE, Triple H has been on a mission to revive the careers of talents who were previously misused or mistreated. Braun Strowman is a prime example of this, with The Game providing him with a fresh start to showcase his abilities. This trend is likely to continue in the post-Vince McMahon era, and with that in mind, here are three WWE stars who deserve a second chance under Triple H’s watch.
First up is Lars Sullivan, a dominant villain during his initial stint in WWE. Despite his impressive physical stature and evident skill, Sullivan’s transition to the main roster was rocky, leading to his eventual release. However, given his remarkable attributes and the WWE’s history of rehirings, it would be prudent for Triple H to consider giving him another opportunity. With numerous individuals with controversial histories having been rehired in the past, Sullivan’s situation is not unprecedented.
Next is Matt Cardona, formerly known as Zack Ryder. During his time in WWE, Cardona’s YouTube series became incredibly popular, but he was eventually overlooked by the creative team and released in 2020. Since then, he has worked with various independent promotions, earning a stellar reputation. With his appearance and skills, Cardona could tackle any role thrown at him, and Triple H might consider bringing him back. The only uncertainty lies in whether Cardona desires to make a comeback, having recently expressed his thoughts on the matter.
Lastly, there’s Fandango, who initially excited fans with his grand entrance teasers in 2012. Despite the creative team’s lack of effort, Fandango executed his gimmick well and gained recognition until his release in 2021. Now performing as Dirty Dango in TNA, Fandango’s skills in the ring make him a top-notch talent when given the opportunity. Bringing him back to WWE would not only benefit the company but also provide an opportunity for him to mentor and guide younger talents. His presence would ensure a reliable and consistent performer within the organization. With Triple H’s track record of giving second chances, these three stars might just get the opportunity they deserve to prove themselves once again.
