On April 1, Fightful reported that AEW released Anthony Henry, among several others, in a round of cuts. Henry had been wrestling for the company since 2021, and he frequently competed on ROH programming as well. Henry is currently sidelined with a broken jaw that he suffered at DPW Live 5. During the ROH Supercard of Honor media call, Tony Khan said that Anthony Henry would be welcomed back to AEW/ROH once he was cleared.
Henry then took to Twitter/X to comment and said that while he was not happy with what happened earlier in the week, he was ecstatic about being back. He wrote that he believed in the locker room, and he could not wait to be back in action.
What a week! Obviously, I was not happy with what happened earlier in the week. However, I am estatic about being back! I believe in the locker room at AEW and cannot wait to be back in action.

Henry then thanked everyone who voiced their support for him. He noted that he did not know that what he did impacted so many people. Henry stated that he had never had anyone rally behind him like that, and he said that he loved everyone.
To those who voiced their support for me this week: thank you from the bottom of my heart. I never knew that what I do impacted so many. I’ve never had anyone rally behind me like that. It is an unreal feeling. I love you all. See you soon!#punchinknockout #workhorsemen

When one fan asked whether AEW reached out after his release due to the backlash, Henry simply said that he was happy to have his job back.
I am just happy to have my job back. I can support my family.
