It’s been a long time coming, but Will Ospreay is finally and officially out of The Don Callis Family as of the July 3, 2024 edition of AEW Dynamite. Over the past few months, Ospreay has distanced himself from Callis in various ways, rarely ever teaming with any of his stablemates and certainly not partaking in any of their villainous activities. That extended into Ospreay’s two most recent pay-per-view matches, wherein he struggled with Callis trying to convince him to do more dastardly attacks, like using a screwdriver on Swerve Strickland this past weekend at AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door.

Billy Gunn, a WWE tag team champion 11 times, is best known for his partnerships with Bart Gunn and Road Dogg. However, he also teamed with Chuck Palumbo, and one of his most memorable career moments was a segment on SmackDown where he and Palumbo teased getting married. And now in a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, the current AEW talent revealed he unsuccessfully attempted to bring Palumbo in for cameo appearances in Tony Khan’s promotion, although Palumbo’s lack of desire and busy schedule has always prevented this. 53-year-old Palumbo broke into the business in 1998 and joined WCW the following year. From there, he would win tag team gold with Shawn Stasiak and Sean O’Haire, going on to join WWE in 2001 as part of The Alliance angle after Vince McMahon had purchased WCW. And while his WWE career was unforgettable due to his partnership with Billy Gunn, he never moved above the mid-card and quality retired in 2012 after several years on the indies, having decided to focus on building custom motorcycles.
