Another AEW star bids farewell to Regal ahead of his WWE homecoming

At the upcoming Winter is Coming edition of Dynamite, Ricky Starks will wrestle MJF for the AEW World Championship. William Regal received a farewell message from Starks as well, who this week won the Dynamite Dozen Battle Royal by eliminating Ethan Page in the final moments of the match.

"Great seeing you again Mr. Regal. See you down the line," Starks tweeted.

Regal will remain on the AEW roster through the end of the year, although reports have stated that his conditional release from Tony Khan's promotion will prevent him from appearing in an on-screen capacity with WWE throughout 2023. We'll just have to wait and see when he appears on WWE television.
