Backstage Update On Bandido's AEW Dynamite Appearance
The former ROH Champion made quite the impression this past week.
It appears that Bandido made quite the impression during his appearance on AEW Dynamite this past Wednesday.
While the former ROH World Champion's in-ring encounter with Chris Jericho garnered plentiful praise, there now comes an update on how else Bandido impressed in his first AEW outing.
Via Fightful Select, one of the major reasons why company higher-ups were so impressed with Bandido was due to how his booking was so last minute. Due to Hurricane Ian, the Dynamite match against Jericho was only announced on two days' notice, and said hurricane also impacted the star's gear. Bandido had to get his outfit shipped in from another area to the one he was travelling from, but this attire didn't make it to Philadelphia's Liacouras Center in time. While he thankfully had his mask with him, the rest of Bandido's get-up was made up of replacement gear that he was able to find prior to Dynamite.
Various reports claim that Bandido was offered an AEW contract following the Jericho match, although there is currently no word on whether the 27-year-old will indeed opt to become #AllElite.
