WWE has confirmed the news that broke on Tuesday, via Pro Wrestling Sheet.
Stu Bennett, aka former WWE Superstar Wade Barrett, will be on commentary for tonight’s episode of NXT. Bennett will join Vic Joseph on tonight’s broadcast.
Bennett left WWE in 2016 to try his hand at other ventures outside of professional wrestling but he has dipped his toe in the water in pro wrestling this year as part of the announce team on NWA Powerrr and he has talked about being open to making a full-time return with AEW or WWE.
Bennett has not signed a deal with WWE but perhaps, his work tonight will open the door for him to do more with the company.
