Spanky and Knoble coming back?

[Dave Youell]

Mike Johnson at PWInsider.com is reporting that the WWE have been in talks with two former Cruiserweight stars, and have sealed their returns to the company.

James Gibson, who competed in WWE as Jamie Noble, was at the WWE's headquarters in Stamford, CT, on Wednesday.

Johnson is reporting that "numerous sources" have confirmed that Gibson, along with Brian Kendrick - who had a run in the WWE under his real name, and later as Spanky - have agreed to re-sign with the WWE, although no start date has been agreed as of yet.

It is expected that the pair will be allowed to fulfil their numerous independant bookings. Gibson and Kendrick are booked for ROH's double shot on August 12 and 13, but the company's website does not have any dates listed for them after that point.
