DIY made a surprise return to AIW on Thursday ahead of their WWE Tag Team Championship defense on Smackdown tomorrow. Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa appeared at AIW Against The World on Thursday, cutting a promo about their defense tomorrow against Jacob Fatu & Tama Tonga.
Gargano is an AEW alumnus, appearing regularly for the promotion until he signed with WWE in 2016. Ciampa made an appearance in AIW back in 2015 in a 10-person tag team match alongside Gargano.
