I guess Lawler's comeback to where he was happened last year. This year was his ascension to the top for the first time.
So tough to pick between Arlovski and Cruz. They are both great ones. I think I'll go with Cruz because we're talking a few major knee surgeries. You rarely come back to look nearly the same afterward. Arlovski's could be a partial testament to how much HW sucks, as well as Big Foot's new lactating abilities.
LOL Tito.

Cruz, and it wasn't a tough call.
What was Arlovski coming back from? Just being ****?

That's not easy to come back from.

Arlovski for sure. I can remember the memes from just a few years ago... "did you hear, Arlovski was in a fender bender... apparently, he put the top down on his convertible and still hasn't regained consciousness". He's shown toughness/durability and skill, which he's always had, in his recent victories. He was seen as a has-been joke, I totally remember this.
Yes, it is a testament to how thin the division is, but Arlovski has reclaimed his spot near the top of it, IMO. Cruz was mighty impressive in his return, but I'd want to see a couple more fights.

"Fedor didn't even punch him, he just stuck his fist out and Arlovski kind of ran into it!!!! That's worse than getting knocked out by a jab!!!"
