Last night Jay Reso, better known as Christian to the WWE fans made his return to the company after nearly four years since departing.

Reso’s decision to return to the WWE wasn’t exactly top secret, with many websites speculating that he would make the switch when his TNA contract expired. When it did, the president of the promotion (Dixie Carter) even confirmed the fact that he had signed with their rivals.

One thing that surprised many fans though was that Christian returned on the ECW brand, and not Raw or Smackdown, where many had thought or expected him to surface.

However after getting off to a winning start over the ECW Champion Jack Swagger (in a non title match), it looks pretty certain that Christian will be in the main event picture for the brand, potentially as the champion, and could indeed help raise the profile of what is considered to be the “C” show by many.

Back in 2005 Christian left the promotion when his contract expired, but before he did, he actually completed his scheduled appearances, despite not being obligated to. He later surfaced in TNA claiming he joined the promotion to finally establish himself as a main event wrestler, which he did for a while.
