The former WWE World Champion Christian has now joined AEW. Captain Charisma was revealed to be the "Hall of Fame worthy" Superstar to join AEW at Revolution after a lot of suspense and hype.

Christian made his in-ring return to WWE after an absence of nearly seven years when he participated in the 2021 Royal Rumble match. Although it was stated that Christian will not be a regular feature, he would still make sporadic appearances in WWE.

Speaking to Renee Paquette on Oral Sessions, Christians revealed details of him choosing to go to AEW to work a more regular schedule and not just be a part-timer in WWE.

"I didn't know, and as far as I knew at that point in time, I was going to be a complete secret, and I would just show up and be a surprise. I didn't realize there's gonna be an announcement, and honestly, this is 100 percent honest. On Wednesday, there was nothing signed."
