Impact’s 5 greatest returns include an enigma, a phenom, and an icon

Time to celebrate the 5 greatest returns in Impact history.

5. Jeff Hardy - TNA Impact! (January 4, 2010)
4. Rosemary - Homecoming (January 6, 2019)
3. Austin Aries - Impact Wrestling - (February 1, 2018)
2. AJ Styles - TNA Lockdown (April 17, 2011)
1. Sting - TNA Final Resolution (January 15, 2006)

The video features Jeff Hardy sitting on top of a huge cage, Rosemary coming out of a coffin, Austin Aries winning the World Championship, AJ Styles serving up a beating to Bully Ray, and Sting as a surprise tag team partner.

I’ve never seen any of these moment before. I popped for the coffin spot with Rosemary (just the reveal, not the hokey undead bride fisticuffs), Austin Aries eating a banana, and Ric Flair wrestling with tattered pants. Poor Eli Drake. That seemed like a pretty lame way to lose the World Championship.

Who was your favorite return in Impact history? Who would you like see return in 2020?
