Bandido is poised to triumphantly return to AEW after spending 18 months on the shelf. During the latest episode of AEW Dynamite, a return vignette aired, teasing the 29-year-old luchador’s highly anticipated comeback to the promotion.

The star has been absent since June 2023 following a wrist injury that required two surgeries. The first procedure took place shortly after the injury, but complications forced a second surgery in December 2023. Despite the setbacks, Bandido remained determined to return to the ring.

Reports from October 2024 confirmed that Bandido had been backstage at AEW events and was medically cleared for competition, setting the stage for his upcoming return.

Before joining AEW, Bandido built a reputation internationally, with memorable stints in Mexico’s CMLL and a legendary rivalry with Hiromu Takahashi in NJPW. His signing with AEW in November 2022 came after reportedly turning down a WWE offer to commit to the promotion.

Fans are eager to see how Bandido’s return will shape AEW’s future, as his athletic style and charisma promise to reignite the roster.
