Below are some top news stories of the day, involving AEW’s Kazuchika Okada’s and WWE’s Drew McIntyre.
• On this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, Young Bucks said Sting & Darby Allin cheated at Revolution. They announced their entry in the Tag Team Title tournament.
Regarding their huge announcements, Matthew Jackson suspended “Hangman” Adam Page from The Elite without pay for putting his hands on two AEW officials at Revolution. He then fired Kenny Omega from The Elite for missing dates for no reason.
Continental Crown Champion Eddie Kingston interrupted them. A brawl broke out and the Bucks took him out.
NJPW Veteran Kazuchika Okada then made his return to AEW TV. He turned heel and took out Kingston. Okada has officially signed with All Elite Wrestling.
Tokyo Sports is reporting that Okada inked a three-year contract with AEW for approximately 2 billion yen, which translates to roughly $13.5 million. This averages out to around $4.5 million annually.
• On this week’s episode of RAW, Drew McIntyre said Seth Rollins is a spotlight junkie and criticized him for involving himself in The Bloodline’s business at WrestleMania 40.
In the main event of the show, McIntyre defeated Jey Uso after a distraction from Jimmy Uso. Solo Sikoa also tried to interfere in the match, but Cody Rhodes took him out.
Rollins then came out and went running past Drew, ignoring his WrestleMania 40 opponent in the process, and took out Jimmy. Drew then took out Rollins with a Claymore Kick to end the show.
Drew posted a video on this on X and used CM Punk’s infamous promo from the AEW All Out 2022 press conference, which resulted in a backstage fight.
Here’s what Drew wrote:
“What did I ever do in this world to deserve an empty-headed, ******* dumb **** like Seth Rollins to go out on national TV and go into business for himself.”
