Erick Rowan Appears On AEW Dynamite, Pays Tribute To Brodie Lee
Erick Redbeard (fka Erick Rowan) made an appearance on AEW
Dynamite tonight.
During a six-man tag team match between the Dark Order and the Inner Circle, Wardlow entered the ring to interfere on behalf of his team, but was cut off by the debuting Redbeard. Chris Jericho initially said, “It’s Erick Rowan!” but Schiavone quickly corrected him to say it was Erick Redbeard. Big Red would then hit Wardlow with the Iron Claw Chokeslam, and chase MJF’s muscle off to the back.
After the Dark Order picked up the 1-2-3, Redbeard joined Alex Reynolds, John Silver, and Hangman Page in the ring to celebrate. Fighting back tears, Brodie Lee’s former tag partner then held up a sign that read, “Goodbye for now, my brother. See you down the road.”
