Miro advertised for first post-AEW appearance

  • Ian Carey

Miro has been announced for his first wrestling-related appearance since leaving AEW.

Qatar Pro Wrestling has revealed that the former TNT Champion will be part of this weekend’s Super Slam III, scheduled for Friday, February 21, and Saturday, February 22, in Doha, Qatar.

Miro departed AEW last week after being with the company since 2020. He had publicly requested his release in September. He is expected back in WWE shortly. Our own Dave Meltzer wrote in Friday’s edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that creative pitches have already been made for his and Malakai Black’s return.

Meltzer wrote:

“The belief is that Black and Miro will also be in WWE very soon. It wouldn’t surprise me to see CJ Perry back involved with him but that’s less of a definite. Those in WWE had said creative had been talking about Black and Miro.”

If Miro competes at QPW Super Slam III, it will be his first match in over a year. His last match took place at AEW Worlds End on December 30, 2023. Miro defeated Andrade on the show.

Also announced to appear at QPW Super Slam III are Mustafa Ali, Mick Foley, Bobby Lashley, Alberto El Patron, Nic Nemeth, and Jushin “Thunder” Liger. Minoru Suzuki, Marty Scurll, nZo (FKA Enzo Amore), Matt Cardona, Raj Dhesi (FKA Jinder Mahal), and Robbie X are also advertised for the show. The only match officially confirmed for the card is Tommy Billington vs. Jonathan Gresham.

Bilal Taha, QPW co-founder and board member, told The Peninsula: “Super Slam III is more than just an event; it is a milestone in the evolution of professional wrestling in the Middle East. Through our valued partnerships and strategic collaborations, we are ensuring that this spectacle reaches new heights, both in terms of entertainment value and global impact. We look forward to delivering an unforgettable experience for wrestling fans worldwide.”
