WWE is bringing on a lot of former talent to work in backstage roles for the company. Recently, WWE Hall Of Famer Jeff Jarrett returned to the company to work as a producer. Similarly, former WWE Cruiserweight Champion Shane Helms has also joined WWE to work with talent backstage. Now, former WWE star Shawn Daivari has returned to WWE to work in a backstage role as well.

Wrestling Inc. confirmed the news, initially reported by Last Word On Pro Wrestling. Daivari worked for WWE from 2004 to 2007. During that time, he served as the manager for the likes of Muhammad Hussan and The Great Khali. After his departure, he went on to have runs with promotions such as IMPACT Wrestling, Ring Of Honor (ROH), Lucha Underground, and more.

He even opened up a professional wrestling school with fellow former WWE star Mr. Anderson in Minnesota. Daivari made his return to WWE in 2018 in Saudi Arabia for the company’s “Greatest Royal Rumble” show. He appeared alongside his brother, current WWE 205 Live star Ariya Daivari.

WWE has also hired professional wrestling veterans Sonjay Dutt and Abyss to help backstage. They’re expected to begin with the company in mid-February.
