All Roads Lead to Philly
It’s official. If you thought that the wrestling scene had peaked this year, think again. All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is making sure that there’s plenty of drama, excitement, and athleticism to go around, especially with the re-emergence of WWE Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam. That’s right, RVD is suiting up and stepping back into the ring on the October 25 edition of AEW Dynamite, coming to you straight from the city of brotherly love, Philadelphia.
A Brief Recap
Before we delve into this momentous occasion, let’s hop into the wrestling time machine. RVD made a splash with his AEW debut on the 200th episode of Dynamite. Post his high-octane bout against Jack Perry, the wrestling virtuoso teamed up with FTW Champion HOOK to trounce Matt Menard and Angelo Parker in a remarkable episode of AEW Collision last month.
“On the October 18 episode of AEW Dynamite, the company announced that RVD will return to team with HOOK again on next Wednesday’s show from Philadelphia,” the company confirmed.
What Else Is On the Menu?
But if you think RVD’s comeback is the only firework lighting up next week’s Dynamite, you’re in for a treat. MJF, not one to sit idle, will be putting his Dynamite Diamond Ring on the line against Juice Robinson. Juice, for those of you not in the know, earned this golden opportunity by winning the Dynamite Dozen Battle Royale. Talk about high stakes!
A Gift From the Top Brass
Hold on to your seats, because there’s more! AEW’s benevolent overlord, President Tony Khan, has announced that he has a special gift for Sting, coming up next week. This revelation comes hot on the heels of The Stinger’s own announcement about when his retirement match will occur. What could this gift be? Speculation is running wild, but you’ll have to tune in to find out.
