Absent AEW star spotted backstage during Full Gear 2024

A popular AEW name who has not been seen in almost eight months has been spotted backstage tonight during the promotion's Full Gear pay-per-view. This would be Ricky Starks.

Starks was last seen in the company back in March and hasn't appeared on TV since. He has not been out due to an injury or anything of the sort. Earlier today, he made a brief cameo at a GCW event and went on a rant regarding his current situation. He said that he did not want to stay at home, as he felt he was wasting his career.

Following this rant, Ricky Starks was suddenly spotted backstage tonight at AEW Full Gear. On Instagram, Danny Cage of the Monster Factory posted himself being backstage with his family at the pay-per-view, and they shared a photo with Starks.

See a screengrab of this below:

It is unclear why The Absolute One was backstage during the pay-per-view, considering that he hasn't been on the same page with AEW recently.

Whether this means something for his immediate future is something that fans should stay tuned to. In the end, he may just be at the show to provide moral support for his friends.
