Speedball Mike Bailey made his shocking debut at this week's edition of AEW Dynamite. He was the wild card entry in the International Championship Eliminator Tournament and defeated The Beast Mortos to advance to next week's Fatal Four-Way match. The tournament winner will get a shot at Kenny Omega's title at Dynasty Pay-Per-View.
Two-time Impact World Champion Josh Alexander reacted to Bailey's AEW debut on X (Twitter). The 37-year-old star highlighted in his tweet that Mike wrestled barefoot on Dynamite and acknowledged his supremacy.
This tweet has convinced the fans that The Walking Weapon is likely to follow in Bailey's footsteps and make his way to Tony Khan's promotion:

"You're next 🤞🤞 @AEW," said a fan.
"You are next to show up in AEW," wrote this person.
"We need ya bro. Join AEW," requested a user.
"We need you in the Continental Classic, Josh. We're waiting," read this tweet.
A few months after Bailey left TNA, Josh Alexander also parted ways with the promotion. He competed in his last TNA match on the February 13 episode of Impact, where Eric Young defeated him. Alexander is currently inactive in the pro wrestling world, but fans expect him to sign with a major promotion soon.
