It seems like Tony Nese‘s days as a free agent might be numbered.
One day after “The Premier Athlete” popped up on AEW Dynamite, Nese competed at the October 24 set of AEW Dark tapings.
JJ Williams of the Wrestling Observer was in attendance for the tapings, and he shared a picture of Nese making his way to the ring in his gear.

Another fan shared an image of Nese facing Fuego Del Sol, so it’s fair to assume this match will air on AEW Dark soon.

For now, fans can at least look forward to seeing Nese compete in an AEW ring sooner rather than later.
Nese is a former WWE Cruiserweight Champion during his run with the company; he signed with WWE in 2016, and he was released on June 25.
WrestleZone will provide more details as they become available.
