Former ROH World Champion RUSH signed a contract with AEW following a few appearances in 2022 and he has proven to be a solid get for the promotion. He was out of action for a long time following a torn hamstring injury but finally came back on Collision this week and has now sent a warning to the AEW locker room following his return.
RUSH made his return to the AEW ring during the April 27th episode of Collision, his first appearance since AEW Worlds End. In his comeback, he faced off against Martin Stone, who was known as Danny Burch during his WWE tenure. RUSH didn’t waste time demonstrating his dominance, swiftly overcoming his opponent.
The match ended quickly as RUSH delivered his signature corner dropkick to secure the victory. However, he wasn’t satisfied with just a win; RUSH continued his assault on Stone even after the final bell, leaving a strong impression with his aggressive post-match behavior.
Following his triumphant victory, RUSH sent a message to the AEW locker room on Twitter as he put everyone on notice, making it clear that no one should mess with him no matter what.
”Everybody saw what I did. Well, this message is for everyone in this locker room, RUSH is back. Just remember, if you mess with the bull, you get the horns.”
We will have to wait and see what AEW will have planned for El Toro Blanco, as he certainly made a major statement with his dominant victory on this week’s episode of AEW Collision.
