A familiar face to WWE and NJPW fans has inked a deal with AEW.
Former WWE Superstar Lio Rush made his AEW debut on this week’s edition of Dynamite on TNT from the Blue Cross Arena in Rochester, New York.
During the show, Rush appeared in a special vignette announcing himself as the newest addition to AEW after being courted by AEW President Tony Khan for some time. He would go on to rant about a LBO — a “Leverage Buy Out” — and how that is his business style he brings with him.
Check out the announcement of Lio Rush’s AEW signing as well as his vignette from this week’s AEW Dynamite via the tweets embedded below.
