Nigel McGuinness made his surprise return to the ring at AEW All In at Wembley Stadium. Having last wrestled in 2011, the former Ring of Honor World Champion was a huge surprise for the Casino Gauntlet Match. Despite not having been in the ring for almost 13 years, McGuinness was as impressive as ever, going toe-to-toe with the likes of Kazuchika Okada, Kyle O’Reilly, and Zack Sabre Jr.
Although he came up short in the match – which Christian Cage won – Nigel McGuinness left fans wanting more. On the All Out Zero Hour, the star left the door open for further matches, telling RJ City and Renee Paquette that his gas tank was “at full” and he might just take another opportunity to compete if it comes his way.
“It’s still at full, if I’m perfectly honest. I shot my shot and I didn’t get my opportunity, but if another opportunity presents itself, I might take it.”
What a moment for Nigel McGuinness, Zack Sabre Jr and British Pro Wrestling!
