Kyle O’Reilly: It’s Neat AEW Got Elton John To Cover A Nickelback Song

Kyle O’Reilly has jokes. 

Kyle O’Reilly is set to return to the ring on the March 16th episode of AEW Collision, wrestling in his first match since June 2022. O’Reilly has been sidelined following neck surgery. 

Ahead of his return, O’Reilly expressed his excitement on social media, joking on how Collision uses “Saturday Night Is Alright For Fighting” by Elton John, which is a song covered by Nickelback. 

I think it’s really neat that the folks at @aew got sir Elton John to cover that nickelback song about weekend fights It’s much better than the original in my humble opinion and reminds us all in fact that Saturday night is all right for fighting. Thanks sir Elton! https://t.co/V6DsNxZYqM
