Brian Cage Says He Got The Call To Make AEW Return The Night Before It Happened

Brian Cage details his return to AEW.

‘The Machine’ made his surprise return to the company on the May 13 episode of AEW Dynamite, where he answered Kevin Knight’s TNT Championship open challenge.

Speaking with False Finish for a new interview, Cage revealed that he got the call to return to the company the night before it happened.

“When I got the call to come back to AEW, it was late Tuesday night. I already had a full schedule and wasn’t even home. I got back, trained legs because I knew I’d be traveling all day Wednesday for Dynamite, prepared everything for the weekend and my commitments, and finished around three in the morning. I got up at 5:40 a.m. to get to the airport and didn’t arrive at the arena for the match with Kevin Knight until around seven that night. I went straight to medical, had to get cleared by the state athletic commission, then receive treatment. I didn’t even see the locker room. I changed right after getting off the treatment table and went straight to Gorilla Position.”

Since returning to AEW, Cage has also shared the ring with names like RUSH, Orange Cassidy, and Lio Rush.
