AEW Star To Make Changes To Character

A highly-rated AEW star is looking to take the company by storm.

Powerhouse Hobbs made a surprise return to AEW Dynamite on November 6th to team with Ricochet as he battled Kyle Fletcher and Konosuke Takeshita.

Hobbs had been out of action since losing to Jon Moxley back in April when he challenged the Death Riders leader for the IWGP World Heavyweight Title. During the bout, the star suffered a major knee injury, but he impressively finished the match as planned.

However, Hobbs quickly underwent surgery and immediately started working on his recovery, meaning he returned in a little over six months.

Powerhouse Hobbs To Embrace Real-Life Personality In AEW

During an interview with Uproxx, Hobbs explained how he’s looking to evolve his character now he’s back on television. The former TNT Champion broke down his plans to introduce more of his real-life character into his wrestling persona.

“I’m going to start bringing my life into my character, the things that I hate, the things that I love. I’m just gonna show everyone how much more intense I can be, how destructive I can be, how I don’t give a shit at times who’s in my way,” Hobbs says.

“In the end, this business, there only can be one. It’s going to come to a point where I’m going to show everybody that it’s all about me. They’re either going to be with me or be against me. It doesn’t matter. They boo me, I’m just going to start tearing everything up in front of them.

I think that’s what wrestling is missing a little bit. That one guy who makes people afraid, but they want to see him kick someone’s ass. I feel that it’s time to bring it out.”

Hobbs was most recently in action on the November 16th episode of Collision where he defeated Bulk Bronson in under four minutes.
