Get ready for an exciting wrestling revelation! The former WWE superstar, Bishop Dyer (formerly Baron Corbin), made a surprise appearance in the AEW ring!
On January 21st, 2026, in Orlando, Florida, Dyer stepped into the ring for a bonus match taped before the main event of AEW Dynamite. The match featured an intriguing lineup: Billy Gunn, Austin Gunn, Brady Booker, and Elijah Drago, who teamed up to face Dyer, Martin Stone, and the independent tag team, Better Together (Hadar Horvitz and Ori Gold). In a thrilling finish, Billy Gunn pinned Horvitz after executing The One And Only (Sleeper Slam), securing the victory for his team.
But here's where it gets controversial... or at least, potentially intriguing! It remains a mystery whether this match will ever grace our television screens. Will we get to witness this unexpected AEW debut on-screen, or will it remain a hidden gem, known only to those fortunate enough to have been in the audience that night?
And this is the part most people miss... the online reaction to Dyer's AEW appearance was electric! Social media lit up with excitement, with wrestling fans expressing their enthusiasm and surprise. Check out these tweets from wrestling enthusiasts, capturing the buzz surrounding Dyer's AEW debut:
