Dan Lambert returned to AEW Dynamite this week, and he brought some imposing backup with him.
Former UFC Heavyweight Champions Andrei Arlovski and Junior dos Santos accompanied Lambert, the owner of American Top Team, to the ring. Like his first appearance in Dynamite, Lambert ranted about the company and its fans. He stated that AEW isn’t the savior of professional wrestling, and he harshly criticized the fans, both in attendance and at home.
Lambert then argued that wrestlers aren’t real fighters, much to the disapproval of the live crowd.
