Jay White made a surprise return at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, appearing during the AEW World Tag Team Title match and helping Adam Copeland and Christian Cage retain the AEW World Tag Team Titles against The Dogs. The Switchblade's comeback ended an absence of over 14 months from AEW television. White's appearance reunited the Bang Bang Gang at the pay-per-view, with commentators and fans noting a massive crowd reaction. The return came late in the tag match and factored directly into the champions walking away with the belts. Promotions and viewers framed the moment as a major late-show development that closed the match and reestablished White in AEW storylines.

That was awesome! I love the long story telling by Tony Kahn tying this with the kicking out of Jay White from Bullet Club by David Finley.

If Christian is involved with the BBG in some capacity, can we agree to rename the group to "Bang Mom Gang"?

Casino gauntlet tag match at all in would be very plausible

The "AEW has no stories" people aren't going to like seeing how dudes are inventing entirely new moves based on layers of personal growth tied to their different rivalries. #AEW #ForbiddenDoor 🤼

Trying to imagine what the world without the TKO merger hiring freeze looks like where WWE signs Jay White and he has to coexist with Seth Rollins.

I was trying to think of something clever to say about #ForbiddenDoor but I'm speechless after that show. I don't know what the fuck I just watched, but I know I loved every second of it.
