Two former WWE Superstars were backstage at AEW Worlds End on 28th December.

Tony Khan’s organisation held their final pay-per-view of 2024 at the Addition Financial Arena in Orlando, Florida on 28th December with Fightful Select reporting that former WWE Superstars Baron Corbin and Top Dolla were in attendance.

The sunny central Floridian city is home to a multitude of wrestlers, as well as the WWE Performance Center, so it is perhaps no surprise that there were visitors backstage for the AEW event.

One such star reportedly in attendance was former WWE Superstar and current TNA contracted talent AJ Francis, formerly known as Top Dolla.

The 34 year-old former Hit Row member battled for the TNA World Championship just two weeks previously at Final Resolution, but it is believed his contract is due up in January with Fightful noting that Francis was spotted chatting with Tony Khan, Jeff Jarrett and former team mate Swerve Strickland in Orlando.

Another star spotted at Worlds End was Former WWE United States Champion Baron Corbin. ‘The Lone Wolf’ spent a dozen years with WWE before departing the company at the conclusion of his contract on 1st November 2024.

The former Arizona Cardinals offensive tackle, real name Tom Pestock, made a notable impact during his WWE tenure including being crowned WWE King Of The Ring in 2019 shortly after defeating Kurt Angle in his final ever WWE bout at WrestleMania 35.
