It didn't take long for former WWE wrestler and trainer Brian Kendrick to get his first match booked post-release as he will take on Jon Moxley as part of Wednesday's AEW Dynamite from Chicago, Illinois.

News broke of Kendrick's release earlier on Tuesday after he reportedly requested it several weeks ago.

The two have never wrestled a singles match, but did team up on a Dragon Gate USA show in March 2010 against Jimmy Jacobs and Paul London.

Fightful first reported that the 42-year-old could possibly appear on either Dynamite or Rampage but were unclear if it would be in a wrestling or backstage role.

This will be Kendrick's first match since an October 2020 edition of 205 Live where he had been serving as a producer and coach in addition to NXT.

Moxley will look to remain undefeated since returning from alcohol rehab this month.

Here's the current lineup for the show:

CM Punk vs. MJF
Jon Moxley vs. Brian Kendrick
Malakai Black & Brody King vs. PAC & Penta El Zero Miedo
Ruby Soho vs. Nyla Rose

I assume this will tie into whatever is going on with Dragon and Moxley and somehow result in us getting Dragon vs. Kendrick.

Dragon and Spanky were both students together, I could totally see something there.

It's more than that. They were the traveling match. Everyone remembers Dragon vs. Low Ki because of JAPW and because it was the finals of both the Super-8 and King of the Indies, but it was Dragon vs. Spanky that was the opening round match in those tournaments that opened people's eyes.

What did Kendrick say?

haven't seen the clip, it's from 2011-ish high spots interview, but it was some anti-semitic stuff, denying the holocaust, and some other stuff.
