    Former NXT Wrestler Returning To The Ring Following Hiatus

    By JAMES RYDER,

    Back in 2019, ACH, known at the time as Jordan Myles, made headlines after he accused his then-employer, WWE, of being racist after they produced a t-shirt with his name appearing to resemble smiling red lips . And while some would say he was overreacting, others sided with the former ROH performer and could see the racist connotations.

    Subsequently, he departed WWE after saying he “ refused to work for racists ,” and having teased retirement, it appeared he had quit the business in 2022. However, it has now been announced that he will return to the ring on July 13 for SCWPro in Iowa.

    36-year-old ACH broke into the wrestling business via the Texas indie scene and, after building up his name, would go on to work for Ring of Honor and AAA, which saw him gain a reputation as a great high-flyer. From there, he would wrestle for Impact Wrestling, NOAH, and New Japan, proving he was ready to take the next step with WWE signing him in 2019. Yet, despite winning the NXT Breakout Tournament soon after debuting, his WWE career would abruptly end after the aforementioned t-shirt controversy.
