Rush’s last AEW match was the Dynamite Diamond Battle Royal from the December 8th 2021 edition of Dynamite. On January 1st, Rush commented on the Tony Khan/Big Swole situation…
“Im not cool with any of this shit to be honest.”
“If nobody says something, then I will. Because this is fucked up and now I’m pissed.”
“APOLOGIZE. @TonyKhan @AEW”

“I am proud to work for a boss and company that try to make these strides in social equality. I look forward to working with Tony to keep making steps towards positive change.”
