Just last week on Dynamite, Kingston made his AEW debut by answering the open challenge set out by Cody Rhodes. The bout opened the show on TNT in Jacksonville, Florida at Daily’s Place and had a No DQ stipulation to go along with it.
The finish of the match saw Rhodes lock in the figure four leg lock to score the win to successfully retain the TNT Title while still having thumbtacks in his back, which was bleeding as a result.
Since getting into the business back in 2002, he has worked for various promotions such as Chikara, PWG, ROH, TNA, EVOLVE and National Wrestling Alliance.
