Former United States champion confirmed for Raw 25

BALLIN'

MVP, a former two-time United States Champion, has been confirmed to appear on Monday Night Raw's 25th anniversary show.

Montel Vontavious Porter has not appeared on WWE television since 2010.

The WWE made this announcement on its website. It was done so rather casually. At the time of this writing, he was not given a special post to announce his participation in the anniversary show, but was simply slotted alongside the other confirmed talents from yesterday.

Of note, Kelly Kelly, a former Women's Champion (at the time, it was called Divas Champion), is another new addition to the show. It also appears the best jobber ever, The Brooklyn Brawler, will be making an appearance.

Via the website, here are the confirmed talents:

The Undertaker
Chris Jericho
D-Generation X
Trish Stratus
Torrie Wilson
Jim Ross
Jerry Lawler
Jacqueline
The Dudley Boyz
Christian
Ric Flair
Maria Kanellis
Scott Hall
The Bella Twins
The New Age Outlaws
Eric Bischoff
Terri Runnels
Ron Simmons
JBL
Kelly Kelly
The Godfather
The Brooklyn Brawler
Michelle McCool
Brother Love
Boogeyman
Teddy Long
The Million Dollar Man
John Laurinaitis
Harvey Wippleman
Lilian Garcia
Jonathan Coachman
MVP
William Regal
Howard Finkel

You should fully expect more unannounced crazy surprises.

In addition to be a US title holder, MVP also held the tag team straps one time. Oddly enough, he accomplished the tag team feat with not yet broken Matt Hardy.

The 25th Anniversary show takes place at two New York venues; the Barclays Center and Manhattan Center, the site of the first episode of Raw.
