Former Champion Backstage At AEW Dynamite For First Time In Months
This former AEW title holder was backstage at this week's Dynamite taping.
Brian Cage was backstage at this past week's AEW Dynamite, marking the first time the one-time FTW Champion has been at a Dynamite taping for several months.
As per Fightful Select, Cage was in attendance for this past Wednesday's Dynamite taping in Las Vegas. It's not known whether the Machine was merely there to visit friends or if he was instead at Dynamite to discuss future creative plans.
Of course, the powerhouse Cage wasn't featured on the Dynamite show itself, and he likewise did not appear as part of the Dark: Elevation matches that were taped prior to Dynamite.
In terms of a mainstream level, Cage was last seen on Ring of Honor's Supercard of Honor show in April. There, the former Team Taz member was featured as part of Tully Blanchard Enterprises alongside the Gates of Agony's Kuan and Toa Liona, with Cage picking up the dominant win over Ninja Mack.
Prior to that, the 38-year-old last appeared for AEW back in October, where he was involved in a rivalry with Ricky Starks and Team Taz. While many presumed that Cage's time with the promotion would be coming to an end, Tony Khan somewhat surprisingly triggered a contract extension for Cage this past February.
