AEW Dynamite aired this Wednesday night, after a chaotic weekend in the world of professional wrestling due to WrestleMania 38. However, it wasn't a quiet weekend for All Elite Wrestling Owner & President Tony Khan, as he was busy with another show.
Khan oversaw Ring of Honor's return from hiatus on Friday, April 1, the first event he has taken charge of since purchasing the promotion in March.
Supercard of Honor XV saw Jonathan Gresham become the Undisputed ROH World Champion before Samoa Joe made his presence felt following a post-match beat down by Jay Lethal and Sonjay Dutt. It was revealed after the show that the Samoan Submission Machine had officially signed with All Elite Wrestling.
On that note, let's take a look at the five biggest news stories coming out of this week's AEW Dynamite.
