WWE superstar The Boogeyman, AKA Martin Wright, has confirmed via Twitter that he will return to WWE.
The Boogeyman is under a WWE legends contract, which means he makes infrequent appearances. The Boogeyman stated on his social media account that he wants to return to the organization full-time.

“Just because you don’t see me, doesn’t mean that I’m not there. #WWELEGEND BOOGEYMAN CMIN2GETCHA,” The Boogeyman tweeted.
