Just moments ago, a released WWE Superstar made his long-awaited arrival on AEW Dynamite. During the fifth-anniversary show, Shelton Benjamin showed up for a very brief appearance.

Last week, MVP made his debut when he confronted Prince Nana and told him that he wanted to take over as Swerve Strickland's manager. The WWE veteran was in attendance tonight as he had an announcement to make. Before he could say anything, Nana approached him and threatened to get in the ring as MVP disrespected him.

The big announcement was Shelton Benjamin's arrival at AEW. MVP introduced him as his business partner and told Nana to take any complaints he had with him.

Benjamin was released from the Stamford-based promotion on September 21, 2023. The first member of the former WWE United States Champion's faction has made his way to Dynamite, but he has shown interest in managing the likes of Swerve Strickland and Mercedes Moné.

It remains to be seen which of them joins forces with him.
