Powerhouse Hobbs Cleared For Return To AEW
A former TNT Champion is closer to returning to the ring.

Fightful Select had reported that Hobbs had been backstage at recent AEW tapings. We’re told that he’s undergone extensive in-ring testing ahead of being cleared, which has become the standard in AEW. As of now, he’s awaiting creative plans.
