Ricky Starks, still exiled from AEW, showed up at the DEFY’s Blueprint show yesterday night and had a stare down with Kenta.
The show took place from the Washington Hall in Seattle, Washington and was headlined by Kenta defending his title against Schaff. The way this was set up suggests that Kenta and Starks will eventually meet each other in the promotion down the line.
Starks has not been seen on AEW television since March and recently was pulled from an upcoming appearance with GCW.
As a contracted AEW talent, he still has to clear his indie appearances with AEW so at least there seems to be at least communication between the two sides. AEW President Tony Khan has so far refused to answer why Starks has been kept off television or if he is coming back.
