It looks like AEW will be getting one wrestler back from injury in the near future to be a nice addition to an already-loaded roster that spans over Dynamite, Rampage, Collision and ROH programming.
That star is Red Velvet, who has been full-time with AEW since 2021.
In 2016, Velvet began training at Fighting Evolution Wrestling in Miami before working some matches on AEW Dynamite and on the Dark series in 2020.
Velvet had her first big match when she teamed with Cody Rhodes in March 2021 on an episode of Dynamite where they lost to Jade Cargill and Shaq in a mixed tag team match, which saw Red take the match-deciding loss.
Her last match happened on the February 1st episode of Dynamite, where Jade Cargill retained the TBS Title over her.
While doing a Fightful Select Q&A, Sean Ross Sapp noted Velvet is nearing an in-ring return.
“She’s been injured and sidelined and out of action. I believe she’s pretty close to her return.”
