best return?

its probably been done before... ive probably done it myself. but for the benefit of those who want a trip down memory lane, or another mark out moment, or ones you werent aware of. and possibly for the new board members who havent discussed before.. what are your favourite returns?

this is one ill youtube from time to time. my favourite ever. undertaker returns at judgement day in 2000. i had first started watching around the ministry time and when he was about to leave. the rock is getting absolutely battered by dx and the mcmahon/helmsley regime in his title match against triple h, until after weeks of weird promos of three girls skipping around and talking about someones judgement day, this happened... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vv8gk29-eYI

i must add, the crowd made it even better, they went absolutely insane. the woman you can hear whaling always sticks in my head

As I was reading your first paragraph the Undertaker's return popped into my head. And then you used it! Anyway, I agree.

The Ultimate Warrior.

lol, beachballs flying about, fans throwing stuff in the ring. and letting out a 'boom' every time taker connected with a punch or chokeslam.

CM Punk Payback 2013.

Gotta say the Rock's return in 2011 was awesome. Unfortunately, what followed was slightly underwhelming but the return itself as guest host was cool

The Undertaker's return would have been good if the actual return part wasnt so awfully done. Its mayhem

Bret Harts return. Never thought I'd see the day :P

Bret Hart would give his own return 4/10.

Triple H when he came back to announce he'd be returning two weeks later at the Royal Rumble.

Hbk when he super kicked Orton of his pedistil when Vinny Mac ordered him to go get hhh out from the back and bang michaels musics hits, just awesome stuff.

The rock's return was just my favorite as i never expected to see it. I never knew anything about it and i was just in general melt down happened. Because it was my childhood hero.

Jericho's return at the rumble this year was pretty cool. Batista return in 2009 was also decent.

I cant believe nobody has mentioned the return of The Great Khali last year! I marked the f*ck out!

"Dance for me you big Punjabi Playboy!!!"

Not a return as such but Austin "snapping" out of his nice guy, Vinnie Mac lapdog role to hammer the Invasion was undoubtable my favourite mark out moment.

A few segments that night on RAW prior to this built it immensly, remember it like it was yesterday.

Now I think about it the return of Steve Austin on Smackdown in the Attitude Era. It was after a tag team Buried Alive match for the titles between The Rock and Mankind taking on The Undertaker and Big Show. Triple H went mad and took everyone out (including a sickening head shot with the sledgehammer to Big Show - how the hell they got away with doing that I will never know). An ambulance then backs its way into the arena, and Triple H prepares to put someone in. He opens up the doors and out pops Stone Cold to the biggest pop ever. I seriously marked out as a kid.

I think it is on one of the bonus discs on the Attitude Era DVD, and watching it again the other day I still marked out!! Everything about that match was excellent so its worth watching the whole thing.

I'd forgotton about that myself until I watched the Attitude Era DVD.

Mine is probably "The Old Stone Cold" return the Raw before Invasion.
