A familiar face made his way back to WWE during this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw, as Big Cass made a surprise return and immediately made an impact.
The former WWE star, who most recently competed in AEW as Big Bill, appeared after Je’Von Evans picked up a victory over Ethan Page. Moments after the match concluded, Evans was attacked from behind by the returning giant.
Cass quickly overwhelmed Evans, dropping him with a big boot before following up with a clothesline. He then locked in a bear hug and capped off the assault by delivering the East River Crossing, officially announcing his return to WWE.
The appearance marks Cass’ first WWE appearance since his release from the company in 2018.
Cass originally broke into the wrestling business on the New York independent scene before signing with WWE’s developmental system in 2011, when it was still known as Florida Championship Wrestling.
He later found success in NXT as part of the popular tag team with Enzo Amore. The duo was called up to WWE’s main roster in 2016 and quickly became one of the company’s most recognizable acts.
Following his departure from WWE in 2018, Cass reinvented himself on the independent scene before joining TNA and later AEW. Wrestling under the names W. Morrissey and Big Bill, he became a featured performer and eventually captured the AEW World Tag Team Championship alongside Ricky Saints.
His most recent match took place for Ring of Honor in April, where he teamed with Bryan Keith.
Reports surfaced in June indicating that Big Bill had informed AEW of his intention to leave the company and was expected to return to WWE once his obligations were complete.
Monday night’s surprise appearance officially confirmed those reports.
With his attack on Je’Von Evans, it appears Cass has already set his sights on making an immediate statement as he begins the next chapter of his WWE career.

Questions surrounding Bayley’s future in WWE continue to grow, but the former Women’s Champion isn’t giving much away.
Recent reports and online speculation have fueled discussion about Bayley’s contract status, with some fans wondering whether her time in WWE could be coming to an end. The rumors have only intensified following recent storyline developments on WWE television and teases from AEW talent that have sparked further debate about a potential jump to Tony Khan’s promotion.
The conversation gained momentum after Bayley’s recent feud with Lyra Valkyria took a dramatic turn.
During a discussion on Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan Alvarez noted that the angle felt less like a continuation of a rivalry and more like a possible farewell for Bayley.
Alvarez pointed to Bayley’s loss to Valkyria and the post-match attack that followed, arguing that the segment came across as a definitive ending rather than the setup for another chapter in their rivalry.
Dave Meltzer agreed that the presentation felt unusual, especially considering the feud had only recently begun. While he acknowledged WWE could still revisit the program, he admitted the angle did not feel like a typical setup for a rematch.
Meltzer also referenced longstanding rumors regarding Bayley’s contract situation, noting that her current deal is believed to be nearing expiration. He further mentioned Bayley’s close friendship with AEW star Mercedes Moné, a connection that has frequently been brought up whenever questions about Bayley’s future arise.
Despite the growing speculation, Bayley appeared unfazed when addressing the chatter during an appearance on The Nikki & Brie Show at Fanatics Fest.
Reflecting on recent setbacks both in storyline and her overall situation, Bayley remained optimistic while discussing her outlook.
She joked about losing her best friend, losing her tag team partner, suffering a painful attack, and coming up short in her latest match. However, she emphasized the importance of continuing to move forward and staying focused on whatever comes next.
Bayley credited the lessons she has learned throughout her career and spoke about persevering through challenges, encouraging others to keep pushing toward the next opportunity and maintain hope regardless of obstacles.
At this stage, there is still no official confirmation regarding Bayley’s long-term plans.
While speculation about a possible departure continues to circulate, neither WWE nor Bayley has publicly announced any decision concerning her future. For now, fans are left interpreting storyline developments and public comments while waiting for more concrete information.
Given Bayley’s status as one of the most accomplished and respected performers in women’s wrestling, any decision regarding her future is likely to attract significant attention across the industry.
Until then, the rumors remain just that—rumors.
Whether Bayley ultimately stays with WWE or explores opportunities elsewhere, her future is shaping up to be one of the most closely watched stories in professional wrestling over the coming months.
