Andrade Returns to AEW and Aligns with the Don Callis Family

Andrade El Idolo has officially made his way back to AEW, closing the loop on one of the most unusual journeys we’ve seen in modern wrestling. After bouncing between WWE and AEW over the last few years, Andrade has now returned to Tony Khan’s promotion, making his shocking reappearance during the sixth anniversary episode of Dynamite.

The surprise came at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino when Kenny Omega was addressing the fans. Just as Omega was wrapping up a heartfelt promo, the arena lights went out. When they came back up, a masked figure was lurking behind Omega — only to unmask himself as Andrade. The former WWE and AEW star wasted no time reminding fans of his intensity, drilling Omega with his signature move, The Message. Moments later, he shook hands with Don Callis, officially joining forces with the Callis Family.

This return also marks a unique milestone: Andrade is now the first wrestler to make the jump from WWE to AEW, return to WWE, and then head back to AEW again. His career path has been anything but conventional, and this latest twist keeps him firmly in the spotlight.

What Led to His AEW Comeback?

Andrade’s WWE comeback earlier this year was short-lived. Reports suggest he was released in mid-September after disciplinary issues, despite still having significant time left on his contract. With no non-compete clause in play, AEW was able to bring him back immediately. According to Fightful Select, Andrade has signed on full-time with AEW, meaning fans can expect to see him regularly on Dynamite and Collision moving forward.

His first AEW run ended somewhat chaotically, with rumors of a backstage altercation with Sammy Guevara and speculation he was pushing to leave early. Despite that, Tony Khan spoke highly of him upon his 2023 departure, leaving the door open for a return — a door Andrade has now walked back through.

Andrade vs. MJF Brewing?

The timing of Andrade’s comeback is also interesting considering his recent online back-and-forth with MJF. What started as a playful exchange about meeting up in Mexico quickly escalated, with Andrade challenging Friedman to a potential Mask vs. Hair match. MJF brushed it off, but not before throwing some personal jabs Andrade’s way, referencing his divorce from Charlotte Flair and past backstage conflicts.

With Andrade now standing alongside Don Callis, who has been staking claims against the Hurt Syndicate (MJF’s crew), it feels inevitable that these two will cross paths sooner rather than later.

What’s Next for El Idolo?

Outside of AEW, Andrade is also booked for House of Glory’s Superclash on November 15th, though his opponent has yet to be announced. With AEW and TNA talent also set to appear at the event, his schedule looks busier than ever.

One thing is clear: Andrade’s latest AEW run isn’t just a cameo — it’s the start of a new chapter. And with Don Callis in his corner, it might be the most dangerous version of Andrade El Idolo we’ve seen yet.

Sting’s Son Steven Borden Preparing for First Wrestling Match This October

The Borden family legacy looks set to continue inside the squared circle. Steven Borden, the son of WWE Hall of Famer Sting, is reportedly preparing to make his in-ring debut this October.

Fans last saw Steven earlier this year at AEW Revolution 2024, where he and his brother Garrett paid tribute to their father during Sting’s emotional retirement match. Dressed in one of Sting’s classic looks, Steven even got physical, hitting the Young Bucks with his dad’s iconic Stinger Splashes in a memorable moment that had the wrestling world buzzing.

Now, according to PWInsider Elite, Steven is moving beyond cameos and stepping fully into the ring. His debut is scheduled for shows at New York’s 52 Walker gallery space on October 3 and October 10.

Training Under Darby Allin

What makes this debut even more fitting is who’s helping Steven prepare — none other than Darby Allin, Sting’s final tag team partner and one of the men most influenced by The Icon’s legendary career.

Allin reportedly began working with Steven shortly after Revolution, easing him into wrestling after the younger Borden had been reluctant to follow in his father’s footsteps. Earlier this year, Allin noted that Steven “has big shoes to fill” but emphasized that their training journey has been about respect, legacy, and giving back to Sting, who became both a mentor and friend to him in AEW.

A New Chapter for the Bordens

While Steven Borden made his mark as a football player at the University of Kentucky, his decision to step into the wrestling world is a significant moment. It’s not just about carrying the Sting name — it’s about seeing if the next generation can carve its own path.

With Darby Allin guiding him and the wrestling world watching closely, Steven’s debut this October will be one of the most intriguing stories to follow this fall.

AEW’s Hologram Sidelined With An Injury

What was shaping up to be a major clash on AEW Dynamite has now been taken completely off the table. TNT Champion “The ProtoStar” Kyle Fletcher was set to defend his title against the undefeated Hologram in a unique Title vs. Streak showdown. Unfortunately, that plan has been scrapped after a violent turn of events this past weekend.

On Saturday’s AEW Collision, Fletcher blindsided Hologram in a backstage attack that quickly spiraled out of control. Officials rushed in to break things up, but the damage was already done. Tony Schiavone later revealed on commentary that Hologram had sustained a significant injury, an update that AEW President Tony Khan confirmed soon after on social media.

Khan didn’t sugarcoat the news, stating that Hologram is “likely out the rest of 2025.” That’s a huge blow for AEW, especially given the momentum Hologram has built since his debut just over a year ago. The masked high-flyer burst onto the scene in July 2024 with a win over Gringo Loco and has since put together an impressive undefeated streak, notching 34 wins without a single loss.

The injury also puts a pause on an intriguing storyline that had been unfolding in recent weeks. Fans had seen Hologram battling inner conflict with a darker persona known as El Clon, reportedly portrayed by former AAA standout Arez. With Hologram now sidelined, it’s unclear whether AEW will continue exploring the El Clon angle or put it on hold until he’s healthy enough to return.

For Fletcher, this attack only adds more heat to his run as TNT Champion. The AEW locker room — and the fans — will no doubt be keeping a close eye on his next moves.

Hologram’s rise was one of AEW’s more unique success stories in 2024, and his absence leaves a noticeable gap in the roster. The hope now is that Hologram can recover fully and eventually pick up where he left off — streak intact or not.

AEW Announces Women’s Tag Team Championship

AEW just added a major piece of gold to its women’s division. On this week’s Dynamite, AEW President Tony Khan revealed that the company will be rolling out Women’s Tag Team Championships for the very first time.

In a backstage segment, Khan praised the growth of the division over the past year, noting the expanded roster, stronger storytelling, and the increasing spotlight on women’s matches. That momentum now leads to a brand-new prize for the women’s roster to fight for — and one that fans have been speculating about for months.

After Khan’s announcement, Renee Paquette was on hand to unveil the brand-new championship belts, giving fans their first look at the titles that will soon be up for grabs. While no tournament or match details were confirmed, AEW has teased that the process to crown the inaugural champions is already in the works.

Since AEW’s launch in 2019, the company’s women’s division has primarily revolved around singles competition, with the AEW Women’s World Championship and TBS Championship serving as the cornerstones. Now, with the addition of Women’s Tag Team gold, the division has more opportunities than ever to showcase its depth and build new rivalries.

AEW’s investment in its women’s division has been noticeable in 2025, with more screen time and storyline development given to the roster. The Women’s Tag Team titles could be the next big step in solidifying that progress, opening the door for fresh alliances, rivalries, and long-term storytelling.

The question now is simple: which duo will make history as the first champions?

Update On AEW Return Of Orange Cassidy

After six months on the shelf, Orange Cassidy is finally on his way back to AEW programming. The former International Champion has been out since March with a torn pectoral muscle, but all signs point to his long-awaited return this Wednesday on AEW Dynamite.

Over the weekend, Cassidy’s Conglomeration allies Mark Briscoe and Kyle O’Reilly all but confirmed his involvement in a six-man tag match. Dave Meltzer later reported on Wrestling Observer Radio that Cassidy has officially been cleared to compete, setting the stage for his comeback bout.

On Dynamite, Cassidy will join Briscoe and Hologram to face three members of The Don Callis Family. That group has been steadily expanding in recent months, keeping busy feuding with The Conglomeration. Most recently, Kyle Fletcher and Josh Alexander scored a big win over O’Reilly and Tomohiro Ishii on the August 30 edition of Collision, adding more fuel to this faction rivalry.

Cassidy’s last appearance before the injury came back in March, when he fell short in a four-way eliminator for the AEW International Championship. That title has since been unified, but Cassidy’s impact on the belt — and AEW as a whole — can’t be understated. Since joining the company, he’s wrestled more than 250 matches, becoming one of the true workhorses of the roster.

This six-month layoff marks the longest absence of Cassidy’s AEW career, making his Dynamite return all the more significant. Fans will no doubt be eager to see if “Freshly Squeezed” can pick up where he left off and re-establish himself as one of the company’s most reliable stars.
