Former WWE Superstar announces in-ring return after a nearly 10-year absence
A former WWE Superstar is set to return to a major promotion. The star being discussed is Gabbi Alon Tuft (fka Tyler Reks).
The 45-year-old star is a former WWE Superstar who worked in the promotion for four years. She mostly wrestled for the company's then-developmental brand, FCW, and even became the FCW Florida World Champion once. She then joined the Stamford-based promotion's main roster in June 2009. After having an underwhelming run in the promotion, she asked for her release in 2012.
Gabbi recently shared a number of cryptic tweets teasing her return to the squared circle and wrestling nearly after a decade. She was also spotted backstage in AEW a few months ago, which ignited the rumors of her alleged appearance. She wrestled her last match back in October 2014 in an independent promotion. Many predicted she would be returning to All Elite Wrestling and WWE throughout the weeks.
Gabbi recently took to Twitter and announced that she will return to wrestling at Western Coast Wrestling's Killin' Me Softly event on July 25.
"Tuesday 6/25 Mother Arrives. Irvine Improv at the Irvine Spectrum, CA. West Coast Wrestling 7:30pm. Everything that is unfolding is per the plan. Stay faithful. There is more to the plan than what you see or what you think. Mother will guide her children to salvation. The match will air at a later date with West Coast Pro Wrestling and United Wrestling Network outlets including YouTube and Triller TV, plus over 125 TV stations nationwide," she shared.
Gabbi Alon Tuft teased to wrestle WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley
The Eradicator made a name for herself as a dominant champion since 2023. However, she had to vacate her championship earlier this year due to an injury.
The 45-year-old star recently said she and Rhea Ripley's potential match would be a "banger."
"Banger of the century," Tuft wrote.
It will be interesting to see if she signs with AEW in the future.
