Brian Kendrick, who was just granted his WWE release after requesting it last week, will be wrestling on AEW Dynamite tonight in a match against Jon Moxley. His match was announced on the same day he was released.

Kendrick had been working with the NXT group as a producer and coach and has not performed in the ring since late 2020. Late last year, WWE advertised him for a match against Harland but that match never took place. The match was supposed to follow an angle the two had the prior week where Harland pushed Kendrick down the stairs.

The 42-year-old is a former WWE Tag Team and Cruiserweight champion and had been working for the company since 2014. In 2020 he transitioned to a producer role helping with NXT and 205 Live and was also a coach at the WWE Performance Center.
