However, their reunion won't come easy as they'll have to contend with the CRM. The Walking Dead community has been eager to learn more about this organization and its activities. With the release of this new series, we'll finally get answers to all our questions.

The return of Rick to TWD's universe has been eagerly anticipated by all fans. A good reunion is something we all love, which is why we can't wait for him and Michonne to meet again. Additionally, we can't help but hope for Rick to reunite with some of the other characters from The Walking Dead who have been missing him as well.

The Ones Who Live: Major Character Coming Back: 


Heath

Heath's comeback would make the most sense in terms of the involvement of the CRM. As you may recall, Heath departed from the show in Season 7, and later showrunner Angela Kang confirmed that Jadis had traded him to the Civic Republic Military. We could see him return either as a CRM soldier or even as a CRM test subject. Either way, this would enable us to delve into his story since his departure.

Morgan also has a significant chance of returning in the new TWD spin-off. Firstly, considering his and Rick's backstory, which began in the very first episode of The Walking Dead, it would be fitting to witness their reunion in this final stage of the franchise. Seeing the two of them meet again after such a long time would be a full-circle moment that everyone would love to see.

Secondly, at the end of Fear The Walking Dead, Morgan embarks on a journey with his daughter Mo to find Rick. The show's conclusion tantalizes us with the possibility of their future reunion. Additionally, in his attempt to reach Rick, Morgan uses a walkie-talkie, which is how the two of them primarily communicate.

Father Gabriel also has the potential to join 'The Ones Who Live.' He formed a close bond with Jadis during Season 9 of The Walking Dead. It's possible that we might see him in flashback memories of Jadis. While we're unsure of the context, Gabriel's appearance would make sense due to their relationship.

Some theories suggest the return of Shane or Glenn in Rick's memory. They could appear in his mind to guide him through tough times in the CRM and help him control his temperament. While it's not impossible to see these characters return, it seems less likely compared to the ones mentioned above.

Additionally, Daryl and Judith are characters that fans would definitely love to see reunite with Rick. However, given the limited length of the show, this scenario seems a bit challenging to pull off.
