-- Over the last couple of weeks, a few interesting faces have been spotted backstage at AEW shows, including the following as per fightfulselect.com:
- Former WCW champion David Arquette was backstage in Nashville. He was there strictly in a non-wrestling capacity.
- CJ Perry, the former Lana in WWE, was backstage visiting with her husband Miro. The couple have a home in the Nashville area. Perry hasn't done any wrestling work since departing WWE except for a few autograph signings as well as being booked for an indie show that ultimately got canceled.
- Former WWE wrestler Summer Rae was backstage at the August 16 episode of AEW Dynamite. She has shown interest in the past about making appearances but hasn't consistently wrestled since her last appearance with WWE at the Royal Rumble in 2022.
- Jade Cargill was at the August 9 episode of AEW Dynamite and remains under contract to the promotion. However, she has taken a planned personal leave of absence, though her loss to Kris Statlander, was somewhat abrupt and surprising and she has not been mentioned within AEW since.
