AEW Didn’t Have Jay White Booked To Debut Until The Last Minute

AEW President Tony Khan recently revealed that he has more big signings in store for AEW. Khan also added that the Forbidden Door will return as well. In addition to that, Khan had announced that a top free agent would be debuting on this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite.

As seen on this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, NJPW star Jay White made his shocking debut as he helped Adam Cole and The Young Bucks beat up Roppongi Vice.

AEW President Tony Khan Khan took to Twitter after the conclusion of AEW Dynamite and revealed that he didn’t secure White until Sunday. Khan stated that he had White debut after butchering his Forbidden Door promise and it was a way to make up for it.

“I didn’t secure @JayWhiteNZ until Sunday. I realized after the fact that Friday night I butchered my own definition of Forbidden Door in hyping tonight. I heard the fans’ feedback, & wanted to ensure that tonight was a special #AEWDynamite for all. Thank you everyone who watched!”
