Tony Khan officially announces newly-signed star's AEW Dynamite debut match
AEW CEO Tony Khan has officially announced a newly signed star's debut match for next week's episode of Dynamite. The wrestler is none other than Jay White.
Last Wednesday, The Switchblade made a shocking return to the Jacksonville-based promotion. He showed up to help his former Bullet Club member Juice Robinson against 'The Absolute' Ricky Starks.
His return to the promotion shut down rumors that he would be heading to WWE.

The Switchblade had wrestled in the Jacksonville-based promotion twice before, the first time in February last year on an episode of Rampage. He wrestled Trent Beretta.
The other match was at the Forbidden Door pay-per-view when he put his IWGP World Heavyweight Championship on the line against Adam Cole, Hangman Page, and Kazuchika Okada. It is to be noted that White won both matches.
