Christian Cage, also known as Christian in WWE, joined AEW earlier this year. After Paul Wight teased the addition of a "Hall of Fame-worthy" Superstar on his AEW debut, Christian Cage debuted at the Revolution pay-per-view.

He wrestled in his first match later that month against Frankie Kazarian and has had a few matches since. Cage was a part of the Casino Battle Royale at the Double or Nothing pay-per-view.

Christian Cage's signing was also a big surprise as he had wrestled at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view earlier this year, his first match in seven years. Captain Charisma had to step away from the ring due to concussion-related injuries. But, after being cleared by doctors, he returned at the men's Royal Rumble match and had a memorable moment with Edge.

But WWE hadn't signed him on a contract which meant that he could join another promotion.

Christian won four world titles in his WWE career, with two reigns of the ECW Championship and two reigns of the World Heavyweight Championship, as well as a number of tag team titles.
