The wrestling world better tighten their turnbuckles because Anthony Henry is back and ready to throw down in the ring like it’s Black Friday and he’s the last TV on the shelf! After a jaw-breaking hiatus that would make even a dentist cringe, our very own Workhorsemen cowboy has been given the green light by those white-coat, clipboard-holding wizards we call doctors. So, all you fans, it’s time to glue your eyes to the ring—Henry might just pop up faster than a pop-up ad!
In what could be called a soap opera with more twists than a pretzel factory, Henry’s year has been as bumpy as a politician’s career. After an errant haymaker from Bryan Keith turned his jaw into an abstract art piece back in March, Henry bravely finished the match with more grit than a sandpaper sandwich. While he was wrestling his jaw back into championship shape—sans surgery, just some rubbery magic—AEW decided to clean house and sent Henry packing. Talk about bad timing!
But, like a plot twist in a daytime drama, just as Henry was about to hang up his wrestling boots and contemplate a quieter life, perhaps as a bingo announcer, the big boss at AEW, Tony Khan, pulled a reversal! In a move that had more back-and-forth than a ping pong match, Khan announced at the Ring of Honor Supercard of Honor media call that Henry was not only rehired but would be welcomed back with open arms and possibly a parade (okay, maybe not the parade).
Meanwhile, Henry’s tag team partner, JD Drake, was busy laying down the law on “AEW Rampage,” warning everyone that the Workhorsemen are not just back, they’re looking to kick doors down and take names. Or was it kick names and take doors? Either way, get ready folks, because the wrestling ring is about to get wilder than a family reunion after someone says politics!
Stay tuned, and remember, when Anthony Henry steps back into that ring, it won’t just be a comeback; it’ll be a reminder that in wrestling, anything is possible—even jaw-dropping comebacks!
