Earlier tonight, Powerhouse Hobbs got into a fight with Mark Davis ahead of their bout. The security had to get involved, as they needed to get things in order to start the match officially. This comes following Hobbs and Brody King getting into a brief brawl with Davis and Kyle Fletcher.
Many were quick to spot a former WWE Superstar among the security detail, as Von Wagner was one of those holding back Powerhouse. He was released by the Stamford-based promotion in April 2024 and has yet to sign with any major promotion. Tonight may be proof that he could now be affiliated with AEW.

In September 2023, he fought Bron Breakker in a no-disqualification match. The latter ended up winning the match, and to make things worse, he even bludgeoned his opponent's head using steel steps after the match.
It remains to be seen whether this is a one-off appearance for Wagner. It is rare that well-known names in the industry are given roles like such in AEW. This could be a sign of an imminent debut.

Growing up, Enzo admired former world champions like AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, Bryan Danielson, Triple H, and Randy Orton for their finishing moves. As an adult, he started to appreciate their character work, as they juggled between heel and babyface gimmicks.
If allowed to produce one final storyline involving his idols, he would have Orton lock horns with John Cena, would be their one last big feud as both of them seem to be approaching the tail end of their careers.
