Like all pro wrestling promotions, AEW is always looking to bolster its roster with new talent. And now, after he worked two Collision tapings in Canada early this year, Fightful Select has reported that 23-year-old Tommy Billington has signed with AEW. However, it should be noted that the report notes it isn’t known whether he received a full-time contract or is on a per-appearance deal, which is typical for many unestablished talents when they first join AEW. For those unaware, Billington is the nephew of The Dynamite Kid, who worked for WWF, Stampede Wrestling, All Japan, and New Japan, often alongside his cousin Davey Boy Smith. And while he had a terrible reputation due to purposely injuring opponents and bullying those weaker than him in the locker room, he is still regarded as one of the most influential wrestlers ever. Sadly, his legendary career would be cut short while he was in his 30s due to injury, and after being confined to a wheelchair for decades, he passed away in 2018 on his 60th birthday.

AEW Has Reportedly Signed The Nephew Of Wrestling Legend

During an appearance on Chris Jericho’s podcast, AEW star Bryan Keith commented on if there was any interest from WWE in signing him…. “No, nothing. I’ve been at Booker [T]’s for a long time. I did extra work and things like that, but nothing like, ‘Hey, come in and we’ll take a look at you and things like that.’ I watched WWE all the time as a kid. I’m a WWF kid, I never even watched WCW growing up. But I feel like whenever I got older, I gravitated towards the Japanese style of professional wrestling, so in my head, I literally wanted to go to Japan.

When news broke that Shane McMahon had met with Tony Khan about AEW, it garnered some pretty incredible reactions from around the professional world. Some wondered if McMahon would formally sign with the promotion, while others asked if this was nothing more than a way to juice up the hype cycle, but the prevailing thought wasn't so much how Shane-O-Mac would fit in AEW but who he would fit alongside, as at 54, there's basically no way the former SmackDown Tag Team Champion could hang on his own as a singles wrestler.

McMahon denied the allegations, but he is under federal investigation.

Going into SummerSlam 93, most fans expected Lex Luger to defeat Yokozuna for the WWE Championship. However, while Luger would be victorious, as he won via countout, he didn’t take possession of the title, and his push slowly dwindled. And now, during the latest episode of his podcast, he revealed that he was paid $50,000 for the match, which was half as much as he had expected. Still, it should be noted that that would be around $108,000 in today’s money, which certainly isn’t to be sneezed at. 66-year-old Luger broke into the business via Championship Wrestling From Florida in 1985,...

Triple H’s WWE career went to the next level in 1999, and for a time, many fans considered him the best pro wrestler in the world.
