Big One: Former Champion Makes Surprise Return On AEW Dynamite
Welcome back. With so many talents on its roster, it can be difficult for AEW to find something for everyone to do.

Fuego Del Sol Buys His Own Wrestling Ring to Train for Bigger AEW Matches
As people outside of the big promotions like AEW, we often forget that we see these performers for maybe 30 mins of television time per week, which could be much less for underutilized talents.

For instance, Fuego Del Sol has been training extensively despite limited appearances on AEW programming over the course of 2022. He took to Twitter on Thursday to share his progress and goals into improving his craft as well as being prepared for any future opportunities.

WATCH: Shotzi, Scarlett Bordeaux And Harley Cameron Release New Music Video
That might draw some attention. Wrestlers are a lot of things, including athletes and storytellers, but ultimately they are entertainers in one form or another. This can take a variety of forms, with wrestlers often trying out different gimmicks to see what they can make work. Sometimes their talents spill over outside of the ring and that is what some WWE stars have done again. WWE has released a music video of Shotzi, Scarlett Bordeaux and Harley Cameron singing I Put A Spell On You from the movie Hocus Pocus.

Maxwell Jacob Friedman Reportedly Receives HUGE Raise From AEW

Friedman did not have to sign an extension, meaning his contract still expires on January 1, 2024. Opinion: That is a heck of a raise and Friedman has certainly earned it.

WRESTLING RUMOR: Former World Champion Arrested For Theft, Faces Possible Jail Time
He might be gone for a bit. Wrestlers are larger than life characters who are able to do all kinds of things that will blow your mind on a regular basis. It takes some special talents to make that work, but at the same time, the wrestlers you are still seeing are humans. That means you are going to see them make mistakes, and now that might be the case again with a pretty serious situation. Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan has announced that former Ring Of Honor World Champion Michael Elgin has been arrested, resulting in him being pulled from upcoming cards. According to Cassidy Haynes of Bodyslam.net, Elgin was arrested for theft of protein powder and could face up to five years in prison.
