Former WWE Superstar set to return to in-ring action after 15 months at AEW All In

A former WWE personality is set to make his surprising in-ring return at AEW All In 2024. He hasn't competed inside the ring in more than a year.

The name in question is Stokely Hathaway. He has worked as a manager of several major stars throughout his career. In WWE, he managed Veer Mahaan and Sanga in NXT before going on to manage the Diamond Mine faction.

In AEW, he ended up managing prominent talents like MJF, The Firm, and now Kris Statlander. Last year, he was forced to face Hook in a singles contest, and in May 2023, he was part of The Firm Deletion Match against The Hardy Boyz.

Tonight on AEW Collision, Willow Nightingale and Tomohiro Ishii issued a challenge for a mixed tag team match at the Zero Hour of All In. They wanted to face Kris Statlander and Hathaway in the ring.

Just as Hathaway was about to turn down the challenge, as he wanted someone else to be Statlander's partner, she accepted this on their behalf, forcing him to be a part of the contest.

Stokely Hathaway will have to be in the ring with both Nightingale and Ishii, who can be dangerous. It remains to be seen how he fares at the pay-per-view.
