Ricky Starks Finally Returning To The Ring But Not In AEW

Ricky Starks AEW

Ricky Starks has finally emerged and is ready to get back in the ring with a match announced but it won’t be happening in AEW.

Ricky Starks hasn’t wrestled in AEW since teaming with Big Bill to take on Top Flight on the March 30th edition of Collision. At the time there were rumours Starks had suffered an injury, but he’s repeatedly denied that this is the case.

Ricky Starks also hit back at claims he had turned down AEW creative pitches but it seems the star is ready to mix it up in the ring but it doesn’t seem it will be in Tony Khan’s company for now.

Starks made a shock run-in at Glory Pro’s show in St. Louis where he took out one talent with a spear before turning his attention to Kody Lane noting the two men had unfinished business and he’d meet him in the ring on November 24th at Glory Pro’s Wrestlepocalypse show.

Is Ricky Starks Going To WWE?

WWE is believed to be very interested in bringing in Starks but it remains uncertain when his deal with AEW expires that would allow him to follow the likes of Shawn Spears, Jade Cargill, Ethan Page, Lexis King, and Cody Rhodes to WWE. Starks has a close relationship with the WWE Champion and Rhodes has long been seen as a bridge should the star want to make the jump across the wrestling divide.
