Which Former WWE Stars Has WWE Contacted To Return For The Brand Split?

The WWE brand split is returning in a few weeks and Dave Meltzer noted yesterday that WWE has contacted several “40+ year old guys.”

Meltzer talked more about the situation on Wrestling Observer Radio and said that WWE has contacted Carlito, MVP, Stevie Richards and others. He said that everyone who’s available is getting a call but he didn’t want to mention any other names.

Forbes is also reporting that WWE is interested in bringing in Goldberg, Kurt Angle, Jeff Hardy and Rey Mysterio. The report mentions that WWE wants to use Angle for the SmackDown brand and WWE has discussed the idea of forming a new Team Angle with American Alpha from NXT.

It’s worth noting that Kurt Angle and Goldberg are both free agents at the moment, but Rey Mysterio is currently under contract with Lucha Underground and Jeff Hardy signed a new contract with TNA earlier this year.
