AEW President Tony Khan continues to hype a “huge” debut that will be taking place on this week’s episode of Dynamite.
During a recent interview with Sports Illustrated’s Justin Barrasso, Tony Khan commented on the debut, saying that the person will debut on this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite and will then go on to face Isiah Kassidy in a Face of the Revolution qualifier on Friday night’s episode of Rampage. Khan said,
“It’s a huge signing for us. I have created some debate about what it means to open the ‘Forbidden Door’ and that’s what we are going to do on this show. The fans are going to get a great night of wrestling, and I hope everyone is surprised—and comes back for the matches this sets up.
“I’m continually looking to improve the roster and bring in new stars and create fresh matchups, and that’s what you’re going to see this Wednesday. We now have such a strong roster of wrestlers under contract that we can put fresh, exciting matches on Dynamite every Wednesday on TBS and Rampage [every Friday] on TNT. It’s going to be a big reveal on Dynamite. It sets up this week’s Rampage and puts a lot of irons in our fire. We have created an environment in AEW where people routinely expect great wrestling matches, and we have the wrestlers to live up to those high expectations.”
As of this writing, there is no word on who the surprise debut is but it’s not Jeff Hardy or John Morrison as they are both still under non-compete clauses. The speculation is that it’ll either be Keith Lee and Killer Kross.
