Backstage News & Notes on Shawn Spears’ WWE Return – As noted, Shawn Spears, formerly known as Tye Dillinger, made a surprising WWE return on this week’s episode of WWE NXT, marking the climax of the enigmatic “Three Faces” cryptic vignettes that have been intriguing fans for weeks. Spears made a dramatic impact by attacking Ridge Holland during the show, hinting at a significant role in next week’s WWE NXT Roadblock 2024 event.
The return of Spears caught many within WWE and the NXT talent roster off guard, with few insiders privy to his impending comeback. His presence was not indicated on internal documents or run sheets before the show, contributing to the element of surprise. Interestingly, Shawn Michaels assumed Spears’ role during rehearsals earlier in the day to prepare for the segment involving Ridge Holland.
Reports suggest that Spears had inked a new deal to rejoin WWE NXT even before the airing of the initial “Three Faces” vignettes, indicating a well-planned return. His backstage presence was kept under wraps until his impactful appearance in the ring, where he received a warm reception from those present behind the scenes.
Taking to Twitter shortly after the show, Spears wrote simply: “I’m back”
As seen below, his real-life wife Cassie Lee (FKA Peyton Royce) and Cody Rhodes also commented on Spears’ return.
