Austin Aries confirmed he would be making his 205 Live debut soon, announcing the ‘arrival’ himself at commentary on 205 Live.
Aries noted Corey Graves usually makes these announcements for new stars’ debuts on the show, but he wanted to take this one himself. Aries rolled into a highlight package of his material from NXT, and said it doesn’t matter if he’s on the mic at commentary or in the ring, but when he does return it will be great day. You can watch the promo below.
Aries, who last appeared in the ring on NXT, did not say how soon he would compete; he’s been sidelined with an orbital fracture since October 2016 and had an estimated return for early 2017.
