After months on the sidelines due to injury, Tyler Bate is reportedly gearing up for his WWE comeback. The former NXT UK Champion has been out of action since last summer, when he and longtime ally Pete Dunne (aka Butch) secured a tag team victory over Hank Walker and Tank Ledger on On WWE NXT.
Back in July, Michael Cole confirmed on Monday Night RAW that Bate had suffered an injury, and shortly after, the English star took to social media to reveal the details—he had torn his left pectoral muscle and tendon, requiring surgery and extensive rehab.
Recent reports indicate that Bate has been cleared for an in-ring return, and according to PWInsider, the plan is for him to join the RAW brand once he’s back. While there’s no official word on when exactly he’ll step back into the ring, it could happen at any moment.
With Bate’s history of standout performances in both NXT UK and NXT, his return to WWE programming adds another exciting layer to RAW’s roster. However, it remains to be seen what creative direction the company will take with him. Will he reunite with Dunne, or could we see a fresh singles push?
