It has been nearly a month since WWE first started to air vignettes for the return of Eva Marie. Since then, several videos have aired which have pushed the notion that she will serve as a manager or a motivator to a fellow talent. This seems to be the exact case.
According to a report by Fightful Select, the plan as of now is not for Eva Marie to return as an in-ring competitor. Fightful has been told that the plan is to use her as a vehicle to help get another female talent over. This plan has been in the works long before her vignettes started to air and confirms that her return is in no way a response to WWE recently releasing other female talent.
There is no word on who the female talent is that Eva Marie will be paired up with.
There have been various reports of her training at the WWE Performance Center and she even gave a shout out to Norman Smiley for his coaching. Once rumors started to swirl that Eva Marie would be back, she had previously stated that she would return to WWE when the time was right and if it made sense.

The transcript of the video is below:
“I just wanted to get on here and say thank you to everyone who has reached out about Larry and to let everyone know that I really appreciate the amount of support and people who have called and texted, I will get back to you, I just can’t yet, because we’re still trying to kind of wrap our heads around what happened. Larry went very quickly, digressed really quickly, and we don’t really fully understand it yet. But he was surrounded by people who loved him.”
“My family was there, we were petting him and Ryan was playing your music on his guitar because Larry loves music. I just want to say, to any animal care person or vet, no matter how big an animal is, or how different they are, please help them. I hope Larry’s story helps open people’s eyes to the realities of having animals around his size. I just want people to do better. We are going to celebrate Larry’s birthday tomorrow. I really want to do something where we celebrate his birthday and maybe do something like a charity thing to raise money for an animal rescue and if that’s something that you guys are interested in or seeing or anything like that, just let us know, and again, thank you” [h/t – Fightful]
