Sorry, but all you can see is the blocked number. To unblock, you'll need to know the actual phone number you blocked.

That said, if they were actually a contact you had before blocking them, they should still be in your contacts. And if they are, all you need to do is open Contacts. Search for the name you want to unblock. Tap edit and scan down to the bottom and tap Unblock.
