Reason For Gabe Kidd’s AEW Dynamite Appearance Revealed

Gabe Kidd shocked fans by appearing on tonight’s episode of AEW Dynamite, and now, we know why he showed up.

Kidd appeared in a surprise moment toward the end of Wednesday’s episode. In it, he seemed to side with the Death Riders, helping them ambush Samoa Joe and Katsuyori Shibata. In a report from Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp, he mentions that Kidd is coming back to be part of AEW All In: Texas.

According to the report, Kidd will side with the Death Riders in their rumored match against The Opps at All In. While nothing has been confirmed just yet, it would make a ton of sense, and line up with Kidd’s return.
