Excalibur has been absent from the last three weeks of AEW Dynamite. The reason for that is due to him asking the promotion to pull him from last week’s tapings after some controversy on social media over his use of racial slurs in a wrestling promo seventeen years ago.
Dave Meltzer reported in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that the AEW announcer will return to the promotion on August 26.
It had previously listed Wednesday due to misunderstanding the taping plan, as his return was meant for the next taping after this taping.
