Last month was crazy for pro-wrestling fans. They witnessed two major comebacks at a time when they were least expecting it. CM Punk made his return at AEW Rampage after seven long years, and Brock Lesnar made his surprise return at the SummerSlam PPV. What’s more interesting is, these two returns happened over the weekend. Punk debuted on Friday at Rampage and Lesnar surprised the WWE Universe the next night at the PPV.

But, they did lose Bryan and Punk, who I’m guessing was never going back to WWE, so that didn’t really matter.” Kurt said.

<h2>AEW 2021: Latest News, AEW Rumors, Results</h2>
All Elite Wrestling has been phenomenal throughout 2020 and has proved itself time and time again. Perhaps the only main contender to WWE, AEW has routed NXT and has now crossed the 1 million viewership mark.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/7xaqmMyjmAsByHJpCrnlyMbRxjs=/1400x1050/filters:format(jpeg)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/19622967/EO7md32XUAApg5L.jpg" alt="I'm Embarrassed this Happens" data-noaft="1" />

Great content, excellent stipulations, and talented Superstars are what make AEW exciting. The different and raw vibe of wrestling in AEW makes it a very viable alternative to WWE wrestling.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h2>History</h2>
It’s hard to believe that the company is not even 2 years old, considering the fact that it has already beaten NXT viewership. AEW’s creation was announced on January 1, 2019, which turned a lot of eyes away from WWE.

The idea began when journalist Dave Meltzer posted on Twitter that ROH (Ring of Honor) had not managed to sell even 10,000 tickets for any wrestling show.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://gmsrp.cachefly.net/images/19/01/02/06fa27e58f9aa42ca3eb7ef0dfd176bd/960.jpg" alt="Two WWE legends are set to be involved in Cody Rhodes &amp; The Young Bucks' All Elite Wrestling | GiveMeSport" data-noaft="1" />

Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks (Nick Jackson and Matt Jackson), both responded by organizing a huge cross-promotion Wrestling event. Using their massive influence as the top stars of ROH, the three were able to gather a lot of Superstars.

The event, called All In, was a huge success. It registered the largest crowd attendance for a pay per view that wasn’t organized or affiliated to WWE. A whopping 11, 263 people attended All In, raising a lot of eyebrows.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://wrestlingworld.co/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/cody-young-bucks.jpg" alt="Cody Rhodes And The Young Bucks Mock WWE 24/7 Title | WrestlingWorld" data-noaft="1" />

Following this impact, Cody and the Young Bucks decided to pursue this new-found dream. It was announced on January 1, 2019, that All Elite Wrestling was going to enter the wrestling world.
<h3>Build-up</h3>
Billionaires Tony Khan and Shahid Khan backed this new promotion as the main investors. The Khans are also board members of the Jacksonville Jaguars and English football club Fulham FC.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://i2-prod.mylondon.news/incoming/article14051044.ece/ALTERNATES/s1200/GettyImages-879842246.jpg" alt="Tony Khan reaffirms commitment to Fulham role after being named president of All Elite Wrestling | Football-Addict" data-noaft="1" />

Cody and the Young Bucks joined AEW as co-executive vice presidents, a day after the promotion’s arrival was announced. Cody’s wife Brandi Rhodes was announced as the company’s Chief Branding Officer.

Following this, AEW also announced the signing of many other Superstars. The team SoCal Uncensored consisting of Christopher Daniels, Frankie Kazarian, and Scorpio Sky, “Hangman” Adam Page, Joey Janela, Dr. Britt Baker, and former WWE Superstars Chris Jericho and Pac.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://i1.wp.com/fullpresscoverage.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/KennyOmega.jpg?fit=1200%2C800&amp;ssl=1" alt="Why Kenny Omega made the right choice going to AEW - Full Press Coverage" data-noaft="1" />

Later, popular Wrestler Kenny Omega also joined the promotion as the fourth co-executive vice president of the company. He has proved to be quite an attraction and is regarded as one of the best in the business.

AEW also made the key decision of partnering with Oriental Wrestling Entertainment (OWE) and Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA), which gives them access to another pool of talents.
<h3>Current times</h3>
<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://s3.superluchas.com/2020/07/Orange-Cassidy-y-Chris-Jericho-AEW.jpg" alt="Chris Jericho Reacts to his Iconic Debate with Orange Cassidy on AEW - EssentiallySports" data-noaft="1" />

The first-ever pay per view, ‘AEW Double or Nothing,’ had tickets out on February 7, 2019. Since then, the way has only been up for AEW. Signing with TNT, AEW now has their shows aired on the same platform as WCW 20 years ago. AEW Dynamite has been a huge problem for NXT for the past few months as the AEW vs WWE war continues.

In fact, AEW ratings have risen during the pandemic period. The company is making good use of the pandemic situation to get an edge over WWE. The promotion has been letting in a number of fans to watch the event live, which has also helped its episodes.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://www.thesun.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Jon-Moxley-4.jpg" alt="Jon Moxley blasts the fan Who ran at him during AEW All Out Entrance - EssentiallySports" data-noaft="1" />

It is the only promotion that is actively competing with WWE and has already overtaken NXT to reach 1 million viewers. AEW will only keep climbing, and seek to do what WCW couldn’t- topple WWE.
<h2>What is AEW?</h2>
All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is an American Professional Wrestling Promotion founded in 2019. It’s President and CEO is Tony Khan. Shahid Khan, along with Tony Khan, is the lead investor in the promotion.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h2>How AEW is different from WWE?</h2>
Unlike WWE, AEW does not have PG restrictions. This means that it can show explicit content that involves bloody stunts such as thumbtacks.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://bleedingcool.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/AEW05224-1200x675.jpg" alt="AEW Dynamite 7/22/20 Part 1 - Now That's What I Call Extreme Rules" data-noaft="1" />

WWE stopped airing such content after it attained the PG license post the Attitude Era. The insanity of Mick Foley and other “violent” acts would no longer air. AEW provides fans with a distinct similarity to those days.

The promotion freely uses thumbtacks and has little restriction in its matches. The reality of the entire show attracts a lot of wrestling fans. Unfortunately, WWE NXT cannot match this.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://www.wrestlezone.com/assets/uploads/2020/07/AEW-Dynamite-Darby-Allin-Ricky-Starks-Skateboard.jpg" alt="Ricky Starks Shows Off Bloody Back After Landing On Thumbtacks - Wrestlezone" data-noaft="1" />

AEW has also made great use of former WWE Superstars. The promotion recruits Superstars who were never used to their potential in WWE and makes them stars, showcasing the true talent that WWE threw away.
<h2>AEW Roster</h2>
AEW has a star-studded roster that can make wrestling fans go crazy over the possible storylines.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

AEW World Champion Kenny Omega defeated the unbeatable Jon Moxley to regain the title in a thrilling encounter.

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://cultaholic.com/files/images/Kenny%20Omega%20AEW%20Dynamite%20AAA.jpg" alt="" width="901" height="507" data-iml="35018" />

AEW TNT Champion Darby Allin is another big name for the promotion, notching a crucial win for his career over Cody Rhodes to win the gold.

AEW Women’s World Champion Hikaru Shida is a major talent in the women’s division and is arguably one of the best in the business. Her wrestling style has been critically acclaimed.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/TS1-EP0YQNVxdvfA7k9Aa-evIP0=/404x0:2047x1095/1310x873/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/67018596/EaHjZ4xXgAEi_r7.0.0.0.jpeg" alt="Wrestling's Best Women, #10: Hikaru Shida - Cageside Seats" data-noaft="1" />

The AEW Tag Team FTR have been hailed as the next Arn and Tully, and they are certainly living up to that potential. We are yet to see the best of them.

The constant stars of the show are Orange Cassidy and Chris Jericho who recently had one of the funniest feuds ever. It ended with Jericho falling in a vat filled with a mixture of orange juice and Champagne form a mimosa.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://img.bleacherreport.net/img/slides/photos/004/380/828/aa31261f94e2fffe857b2d948ba9fdf1_crop_exact.jpg?w=2975&amp;h=2048&amp;q=85" alt="AEW Revolution 2020 Results: Orange Cassidy Shines Brightest, More Hot Takes | Bleacher Report | Latest News, Videos and Highlights" data-noaft="1" />

Other prominent names in the AEW roster include Cody, “Hangman” Adam Page, Brain Cage, Miro, Kip Sabian, MJF, Matt Hardy, and Sammy Guevara.

The women’s division also has upcoming talents such as Abadon, Anna Jay, and Brandi Rhodes.

<img class="n3VNCb" src="https://em.wattpad.com/a966bc4df39068d42f7c1a85a2068355f8de60f7/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f47487274426d344d674a664861513d3d2d3137312e313630623932336531366633623462373636303233313938323135362e6a7067" alt="AEW Smash or Pass - Anna Jay - Wattpad" data-noaft="1" />

AEW also announced the signing of former WWE Superstars Miro (Rusev), Matt Cardona (Zack Ryder), and Matt Sydal (Evan Bourne), adding them to the already great roster.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Brock Lesnar: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, Wife and More</strong></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Brock Lesnar?Â </b></h2>
If there is one Superstar that does not need any introduction, it's Brock Lesnar. The Beast Incarnate was one of the most dominant wrestlers in WWE history, as his sheer physical and athletic superiority gave him an undeniable edge over his opponents. Lesnar has been in the business long enough to add a huge blend of experience to his already superhuman abilities. He has had a well-decorated career so far and is one of the strongest athletes to ever grace the WWE ring.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Brock Lesnarâ€™s early lifeÂ </b></h2>
Brock Lesnar was born on July 12, 1977, in Webster, South Dakota to Ricard and Stephanie Lesnar. His parents did not have any connection with the wrestling world and ran a dairy farm. He has three siblings, two brothers and one sister named <span style="font-weight: 400">Troy Lesnar, Chad Lesnar, and Brandi Nichol Lesnar. Speaking of his education, Brock studied at Webster High School and was a big football fan throughout his school days.Â </span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Brock Lesnarâ€™s wife and children</b></h2>
Brock Lesnar met his life partner, Rena Greek, renowned by her ring name Sable while working with WWE. The couple finally tied the knot in May 2006 following an extensive dating period. Just like her husband, Sable has also made a name for herself in the wrestling world. She majorly dominated in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

[caption id="attachment_1649882" align="aligncenter" width="1600"]<img class="wp-image-1649882 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Brock-Lesnar.jpeg" alt="Brock Lesnar" width="1600" height="1066" /> Image Courtesy: Imago[/caption]

As far as children are concerned, Lesnar became a father for the first time in 2002 as he welcomed a daughter named Mya Lynn and a son named Luke Lesnar with his then-fiancÃ©e Nicole McClain. Lesnar also has two kids with his wife Sable in the form of two sons, Turk and Duke Lesnar. Brock also essays the role of a stepfather for Mariah, who is Sable's biological daughter from her previous relationship.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Brock Lesnar net worth 2024</b></h2>
As per wealthygorilla.com, Brock Lesnar has a net worth of $25 million. The wrestler majorly earns from WWE while he also has a partnership with brands like Dymatize Nutrition and Death Clutch.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Brock Lesnarâ€™s career timeline</b></h2>
Brock Lesnar joined the World Wrestling Federation in 2000 and formed a team with Shelton Benjamin named The Minnesota Stretching Crew to win the OVW Southern Tag Team Championship a total of three times. His initial foray into WWE came in March 2022 during RAW. In his first game, he defeated The Hardy Boyz, and in June of the same year, won the King of the Ring tournament.

He also became eligible to participate in the Undisputed Championship at SummerSlam where he outshined <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-rock/">The Rock</a> to become the youngest world champion in WWE's history.

[caption id="attachment_1963171" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1963171 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1393475587.jpg" alt="Brock Lesnar" width="1920" height="1264" /> GLENDALE, ARIZONA - APRIL 22: Brock Lesnar, former WWE champion and UFC champion, flexes for the crowd during a game between the Arizona Coyotes and Washington Capitals at Gila River Arena on April 22, 2022 in Glendale, Arizona.

Further, during his time with the company, Lesnar competed with a lot of wrestlers including <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-undertaker/">The Undertaker</a>, Hulk Hogan, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/john-cena">John Cena</a>, Kurt Angle, and many others. In a surprising turn of events in 2004, the superstar decided to put a halt on his wrestling career to pursue his passion for football. Following his childhood dream of playing the sport, Lesnar didn't want to turn 40 with any regrets of what could have been. He joined the training leagues and soon caught wind of the scouts.

He was then called up for trials. However, a short while before the trials, Lesnar met with a big motorcycle accident, which injured him badly. According to Paul Heyman, Lesnar still went for the trials and completed the dash in record time.Â Sadly, the groin injury that he had sustained as a result of the accident proved to be the poison to his NFL career as it kept acting up. Lesnar was released from the Minnesota Vikings just half a season after he had joined.

Following his very short stint in the NFL, Brock decided to join the Japan-based wrestling promotion named New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). He was quick to make an impact there also as he defeated Kazuyuki Fujita and Masahiro Chono to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. In 2007, the star wrestler lost to Kurt Angle and thus decided to take a break from wrestling till 2012.

It was a dramatic comeback for Lesnar in WWE in 2012 as he lost to John Cena before defeating <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/triple-h/">Triple H</a>. The rivalry between Triple H and Lesnar continued for months as the two took turns to defeat one another. In 2014, the star returned to Raw to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship by defeating The Undertaker and Cena.

He then went on to carry the Universal Champion title for a record 504 days following a victory against Goldberg at WrestleMania 33. It was <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/roman-reigns/">Roman Reigns'</a> who put a dent in Brock's winning streak by defeating him at the SummerSlam. Following that he won the WWE Championship and after some months took a break from the company.

Lesnar made his comeback to WWE at SummerSlam PPV after being out of action following his loss at WrestleMania to Drew McIntyre. The most surprising part about his comeback was that he rocked a ponytail and a beard, something that the WWE Universe never expected. The Beast then feuded with the reigning WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship at the Crown Jewel PPV in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and lost.

[caption id="attachment_1908643" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1908643 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Brock-Lesnar-Roman-reigns-2.jpg" alt="Brock Lesnar: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, wife and more" width="1920" height="1280" /> Image Courtesy: Imago[/caption]

The pair was again set to face each other at the Day 1 event, but Reigns had to pull out of the match.

Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, Wife and More Who is Brock Lesnar?Â  If there is one Superstar that does not need any introduction, it&#8217;s Brock Lesnar. The Beast Incarnate was one of the most dominant wrestlers in WWE history, as his sheer physical and athletic superiority gave him an undeniable edge over his opponents. Lesnar has been in the business long enough to add a huge blend of experience to his already superhuman abilities. He has had a well-decorated career so far and is one of the strongest athletes to ever grace the WWE ring. Brock Lesnarâ€™s early lifeÂ  Brock Lesnar was born on July 12, 1977, in Webster, South Dakota to Ricard and Stephanie Lesnar. His parents did not have any connection with the wrestling world and ran a dairy farm. He has three siblings, two brothers and one sister named Troy Lesnar, Chad Lesnar, and Brandi Nichol Lesnar. Speaking of his education, Brock studied at Webster High School and was a big football fan throughout his school days.Â  Brock Lesnarâ€™s wife and children Brock Lesnar met his life partner, Rena Greek, renowned by her ring name Sable while working with WWE. The couple finally tied the knot in May 2006 following an extensive dating period. Just like her husband, Sable has also made a name for herself in the wrestling world. She majorly dominated in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Image Courtesy: Imago As far as children are concerned, Lesnar became a father for the first time in 2002 as he welcomed a daughter named Mya Lynn and a son named Luke Lesnar with his then-fiancÃ©e Nicole McClain. Lesnar also has two kids with his wife Sable in the form of two sons, Turk and Duke Lesnar. Brock also essays the role of a stepfather for Mariah, who is Sable&#8217;s biological daughter from her previous relationship. Brock Lesnar net worth 2024 As per wealthygorilla.com, Brock Lesnar has a net worth of $25 million. The wrestler majorly earns from WWE while he also has a partnership with brands like Dymatize Nutrition and Death Clutch. Brock Lesnarâ€™s career timeline Brock Lesnar joined the World Wrestling Federation in 2000 and formed a team with Shelton Benjamin named The Minnesota Stretching Crew to win the OVW Southern Tag Team Championship a total of three times. His initial foray into WWE came in March 2022 during RAW. In his first game, he defeated The Hardy Boyz, and in June of the same year, won the King of the Ring tournament. He also became eligible to participate in the Undisputed Championship at SummerSlam where he outshined The Rock to become the youngest world champion in WWE&#8217;s history. GLENDALE, ARIZONA &#8211; APRIL 22: Brock Lesnar, former WWE champion and UFC champion, flexes for the crowd during a game between the Arizona Coyotes and Washington Capitals at Gila River Arena on April 22, 2022 in Glendale, Arizona. (Photo by Norm Hall/NHLI via Getty Images) Further, during his time with the company, Lesnar competed with a lot of wrestlers including The Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, John Cena, Kurt Angle, and many others. In a surprising turn of events in 2004, the superstar decided to put a halt on his wrestling career to pursue his passion for football. Following his childhood dream of playing the sport, Lesnar didn&#8217;t want to turn 40 with any regrets of what could have been. He joined the training leagues and soon caught wind of the scouts. He was then called up for trials. However, a short while before the trials, Lesnar met with a big motorcycle accident, which injured him badly. According to Paul Heyman, Lesnar still went for the trials and completed the dash in record time.Â Sadly, the groin injury that he had sustained as a result of the accident proved to be the poison to his NFL career as it kept acting up. Lesnar was released from the Minnesota Vikings just half a season after he had joined. Following his very short stint in the NFL, Brock decided to join the Japan-based wrestling promotion named New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). He was quick to make an impact there also as he defeated Kazuyuki Fujita and Masahiro Chono to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. In 2007, the star wrestler lost to Kurt Angle and thus decided to take a break from wrestling till 2012. It was a dramatic comeback for Lesnar in WWE in 2012 as he lost to John Cena before defeating Triple H. The rivalry between Triple H and Lesnar continued for months as the two took turns to defeat one another. In 2014, the star returned to Raw to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship by defeating The Undertaker and Cena. He then went on to carry the Universal Champion title for a record 504 days following a victory against Goldberg at WrestleMania 33. It was Roman Reigns&#8217; who put a dent in Brock&#8217;s winning streak by defeating him at the SummerSlam. Following that he won the WWE Championship and after some months took a break from the company. Lesnar made his comeback to WWE at SummerSlam PPV after being out of action following his loss at WrestleMania to Drew McIntyre. The most surprising part about his comeback was that he rocked a ponytail and a beard, something that the WWE Universe never expected. The Beast then feuded with the reigning WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship at the Crown Jewel PPV in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and lost. Image Courtesy: Imago The pair was again set to face each other at the Day 1 event, but Reigns had to pull out of the match. Lesnar was then added to the Raw WWE Championship match in which he defeated Lashley, Rollins, Kevin Owens, and defending champion Big E. &#8216;The Beast Incarnated&#8217; then faced Lashley at the Royal Rumble event and lost his title after interference from Reigns. Later that night, he entered the Rumble match at the 30th spot and won the whole thing. Following that, he continued making appearances at WrestleMania and Smackdown taking on different opponents.
