Seth Rollins made a surprise appearance for AAW Wrestling yesterday in the penultimate show at the Berwyn Eagles Club.
Rollins, who used to wrestle at the location during his indie days, came out to his WWE theme song wearing a jogging suit. He greeted fans at ringside with high-fives and then did a six-minute speech, saying that a few of his students from the Black & Brave Wrestling Academy are participating in the show.
The former WWE champ went over the history between wrestling and the building and said he was honored to have wrestled there, leaving out his childhood dream.
Berwyn Eagles Club will no longer host professional wrestling events after a fight between a wrestler and a fan last month fueled rumors that someone was stabbed. The Chicago-suburb location is a popular one with indie promotions.
