Elio LeFleur is back in the ring.

Before the October 27th edition of WWE NXT on The CW went live, dark matches took place for the crowd at the Performance Center.

One of the matches featured the in-ring return of former WWE Men’s Speed Champion Elio LeFleur.

In March 2026, LeFleur announced that he suffered a shoulder injury and underwent surgery in early April.

He was in possession of the now-defunct Men’s Speed Title and had to relinquish the belt as a result of his injury.
