The rumors that former WWE Tag Team Champ Shelton Benjamin will be returning to the WWE during the Royal Rumble are inaccurate, and it’s coming straight from the horse’s mouth. Benjamin took to Twitter to shut down any misconceptions that he’ll be returning to in-ring action at this month’s Royal Rumble pay-per-view (PPV):
Recovery is going well. Still months away from anything physical so all the RR predictions are as accurate as they've been the last 6 years https://t.co/eb6q2YbEsJ
