Surprise Return Could Be in Store for AEW Dynamite’s Blood & Guts Special in Greensboro

AEW Dynamite’s Blood & Guts special could come with more than just brutality in the cage—it might feature a surprise return that fans never saw coming.

During Wrestling Observer Live, Bryan Alvarez dropped an intriguing tease about a possible unannounced comeback. While he quickly shot down speculation about two of AEW’s most discussed absentees, the door is wide open for speculation to run wild.

“I just wanna say something really quick. I don’t think it’s Chris Jericho, but there’s a chance we might see a surprise return on AEW Dynamite. I heard something over the weekend that it’s possible. So, we’ll see. And no — it’s not Britt Baker.”

Chris Jericho has been off AEW television since April, and Britt Baker hasn’t appeared since November 2024. So fans hoping to see either of them at Blood & Guts may want to temper expectations. That said, with Alvarez confirming it’s not those two, speculation is now turning to other names who could shake up the roster.

Whether it’s a returning veteran, a sidelined star, or a shocking comeback no one predicted, AEW might be setting the stage for something—or someone—big. Blood & Guts is always packed with chaos, and if this tease pays off, it could be even more explosive.
