AEW Dynamite continues to surprise fans with unexpected appearances and reunions, and this week’s episode was no exception. Roderick Strong, who had previously been with NXT and the leader of the Diamond Mine stable, made his way to AEW, much to the surprise of viewers.
During the episode, Adam Cole appeared to be in trouble as he faced off against Chris Jericho, but suddenly, Strong ran down to the ring to a huge pop from the crowd. This unexpected move shocked fans, as Strong had not been rumored to be leaving NXT.
With Strong’s arrival in AEW, he becomes the final member of the Undisputed Era to join Tony Khan’s company, following the departures of Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly’s current injury. As Cole and Strong hugged in the ring, it was a moment that will undoubtedly go down in AEW history.
It remains to be seen what Strong’s role will be in AEW, but his arrival has added another layer of excitement to the company’s impressive roster. With surprises like this continuing to occur on AEW Dynamite, it’s no wonder the show has become a must-see for wrestling fans everywhere.
Longtime friend of @adamcolepro, @roderickstrong, is here at #AEW!!!
