Two AEW talents have not appeared on television for several months, which is a recurring issue within the company regarding certain wrestlers.
As we previously reported here on eWn, RUSH and Dralistico were originally set to defeat The Acclaimed at the AEW Collision taping on November 14, leading them to a title match at Full Gear 2024.
However, there was some heat after an incident in their match with Richard Holliday and Alec Price where they got physical with Holliday while he was being checked on by a medic.
RUSH and Dralistico have not been utilized since then.
During a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez discussed the current status of RUSH and Dralistico.
Alvarez said, “Did RUSH and Dralistico get suspended by AEW for attacking and injuring a local a few months ago, and when should we expect them back?”
Meltzer said, “I don’t think it was suspended, but they aren’t being used right now. So, I mean, I guess you could say.”
Alvarez added, “That is basically the way that I heard it as well.”
Meltzer continued, “I don’t think it’s an official suspension, but they’re just not being used. Dralistico is, you know, I have no idea when he’s going to be back because it’s not like, you know. I mean, they weren’t doing anything with him anyway. I mean, RUSH, you know, at some point they’ll probably bring RUSH back, you know, I don’t know, you know, Jake hasn’t been on the show. Mortos is, you know he, you know, he’s been on a little bit, but, yeah, that kind of, that LFO thing, has kind of died off.”
