High-flying wrestling sensation Ricochet is heading to Japan next month, set to compete at GLEAT’s EDION #1 event in Osaka on October 6, 2024. The AEW star will team up with Japanese wrestling legend CIMA in what is sure to be a highly anticipated match.

The appearance marks a significant collaboration between AEW and GLEAT, a relatively new promotion established on August 20, 2020, by LIDET Entertainment. GLEAT blends elements of martial arts and traditional strong-style pro wrestling, offering a unique platform for international talent like Ricochet.

Ricochet hyped the appearance, teasing that this might be the final opportunity to see him and CIMA team up for the last time.

Ricochet’s AEW Journey

Ricochet, one of the newest additions to the AEW roster, has wasted no time making his presence felt. The former WWE standout made his AEW debut as a surprise entrant in the Casino Gauntlet match at AEW’s All In London pay-per-view. While he did not secure the victory, his presence was felt, and he followed up by winning his first singles match on the August 28 edition of AEW Dynamite against Kyle Fletcher.

His move to AEW highlights one of the promotion’s key attractions for wrestlers—contract flexibility. AEW allows its talent to compete in other promotions, a factor that has drawn many high-profile names to its roster. Ricochet’s upcoming appearance for GLEAT underscores the appeal of AEW’s open-door policy, giving him opportunities to showcase his high-octane style across the globe.

Ricochet in Japan

Ricochet is no stranger to Japanese audiences. Long before he became a household name as a WWE Superstar, his high-flying, “human highlight reel” offense has made him a fan favorite worldwide, particularly in Japan where he previously competed in New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) against the likes of Will Ospreay, PAC and others.

As anticipation builds for the EDION #1 event, Ricochet’s partnership with CIMA, a decorated veteran of the Japanese wrestling scene, is sure to be a thrilling match-up that blends experience with Ricochet’s high-energy offense. This international appearance further solidifies Ricochet’s standing as a versatile and globally recognized performer.

Ricochet’s participation in GLEAT’s Osaka event on October 6 highlights the growing collaborations between AEW and international promotions, and a valuable ‘perk’ Tony Khan offers that others do not.

CM Punk is set to make his WWE Raw return on September 16 in Portland, Oregon, just two weeks after being viciously attacked by Drew McIntyre. This announcement was made during this week’s WWE Raw “season premiere” from Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

During the show, WWE official Adam Pearce provided an update, stating that he had spoken with Punk, who confirmed he’s far from finished. Punk’s return on Raw will serve as the lead-up to his third match against McIntyre at WWE Bad Blood 2024, where the two will face off inside Hell in a Cell.

This will be the final bout in their trilogy. The rivalry between Punk and McIntyre has been intense, with each competitor holding one victory. McIntyre claimed the first win at SummerSlam, while Punk evened the score at Payback. The Hell in a Cell match at Bad Blood promises to be the decisive battle.

In addition to Punk’s return, the September 16 episode of Raw will also feature a WWE Tag Team Championship match. The New Day’s Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are set to challenge The Judgment Day’s Finn Balor and JD McDonagh.

With Punk’s comeback and these high-stakes matches, next week’s Raw is set to be a can’t-miss event as WWE heads toward Bad Blood 2024.

Jon Moxley made a shocking return at the start of this week’s AEW Dynamite, live from Champaign, IL. The former AEW World Champion had been absent from television for two months, with his last appearance being at the AEW Forbidden Door pay-per-view in June.

During his return, Moxley revealed that he’s been doing a lot of thinking during his time away, reflecting on some matters that need to be addressed. He made it clear that he’s back for a specific reason— to speak to someone who wasn’t present at Dynamite this week.

In a cryptic message, Moxley addressed Darby Allin, stating that while they might seem different, they are also very much alike. He emphasized that this conversation with Allin is long overdue, adding, “Trust me, I’m not gonna be hard to find.”

Before wrapping up, Moxley delivered a bold statement to Tony Schiavone, saying:

“It’s going to take some time for everybody to wrap their brains around this, but we’re going to get started now. This is not your company anymore”

Bloodline member Jacob Fatu is no longer wearing a boot on his foot, a positive indication that he’s one ‘step’ closer to getting back in the ring. At Wednesday’s WWE live event from Stuttgart, Germany, the Samoan Werewolf was boot-free as he accompanied Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa to the ring for their match:

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by @wwedeutschland

Jacob Fatu has been out of action since the August 2, 2024 edition of WWE SmackDown, when he and Tama Tonga captured the WWE Tag team championships from Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa. What looked to be the start of a fearsome title reign came to a screeching halt at SummerSlam, when Fatu was injured during a top-rope dive onto Cody Rhodes, who was laid-out on announcers’ table at ringside.

Due to Fatu’s inability to compete, Tonga Loa replaced him as Tama Tonga’s partner, in an effort to keep the gold in The Bloodline. He’s now one step closer to getting medically cleared, which should make Cody Rhodes and others very uneasy.

For more details on the CEO’s newsletter:

During an appearance this week at the Thirsty Cowboy in Medina, Ohio, wrestling icon Hulk Hogan engaged with the crowd in a rowdy and controversial manner, directing remarks at U.S. Presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

Hogan, known for his flamboyant promos, teased that he might “body slam Kamala Harris” and even suggested he could “drop the leg” on her. The crowd reacted enthusiastically, but Hogan quickly downplayed the remarks, emphasizing that he was only joking, saying, “That was not me, that was the beers talking.”

The event was part of Hogan’s promotion for his new beer, Real American Beer, a premium light lager introduced this summer, which bills itself as “brewed with 100% North American ingredients.” The incident, captured in an embedded video courtesy of TMZ Sports, has garnered mixed reactions.
