The Wicked Worm Beast
***
Earth/Beeast/Effect
1400/700
Effect: This card is returned to your hand at the end of your turn.

Now, in a very old Pojo book that I have, the ruling states that WWB must be face-up on the field to return to your hand, and can't return there from the graveyard or something. However, that was then, and I want to know if this is still true now. So far, I haven't seen ANY ruling about WWB anywhere, and WWB's effect itself doesn't specify from where it has to return to your hand, so I would like some clarification for this. Thanks.

"The Wicked Worm Beast" can only return to the hand from being face-up on the field.

Crap. Well, there goes my chance of using him in my King Tiger/Maji-Gire deck...

If you ask me, Konami needs to be a little more specific on card text.
