Pick a wrestler you'd like to see back with WWE on a permanent basis and state which brand you'd assign them to.
Personally, as much as I'd love to have Jericho back on a full-time basis (especially considering that he'd probably get a really decent World Title run, given the recent crop we're supposed to accept as main eventers), I know his talents would be wasted in the IC title division like he's seemingly always relegated, save for a world title program once a year or so.
The Rock, well, it'd be nice having him around. Might even turn the product around. I'd love to see him back. Same with Foley, who still has a lot to give to the business even if it's just at a managerial or promo capacity.
But more than anything, I really, really, really want Brock Lesnar back. He's as close to the total package as wrestlers come. I don't think he's the greatest of all-time, nor is he even my favorite wrestler, but with WWE competing with UFC, a guy like Lesnar gives professional wrestling instant credibility. He's HUGE and he can friggin' GO in the ring. He may not have been a huge draw on top, but I'd love to see him back just for some of the matches he could give us, like against Michaels and against Punk and even a match with Finlay. Hell, I'd send him out there and have him destroy Randy Orton just for giggles.
That said, I would put him with the ECW brand for two reasons:
a) They need credible heels (well, except that I know I wouldn't boo him)
b) On principle, Lesnar > Lashley.
So who would you bring back and to which brand would you assign them?
