My current pet theory is that all of them got something back that they lost in the deal with W&H. Angel's shanshu, Connor's full memory, Fred's soul and so on.
Great theory! And, to develop it a bit, I'd love to add that they all get enhanced abilities. Angel got back his humanity and turned human. Connor got back not only the usual human memories, he has got superhuman memories of everything that ever happened to him. Lorne got back so much groove that his singing now inspires regular people to slay demons. Fred returned enhanced by Illyria's power.
But as it happens in RL, their extra powers brought them a lot of trouble.
