Earlier today, AEW President Tony Khan promised something newsworthy on tonight’s (Feb. 4) episode of Rampage:
In addition to a guarantee that we have some great wrestling tonight @ 10pm ET/9pm CT on @TNTdrama, I’m planning to drop some newsworthy info on tonight’s #AEWRampage! Thank you to everyone who supports Dynamite + Rampage! Come tonight for the great wrestling, stay for the scoops

At the end of the episode, I was scratching my head trying to figure out what he meant.
There seemed to be three possibilities:
- Hook is wrestling Blake Li next week, and nobody knows who Blake Li is.
- The Face of the Revolution Ladder match is returning at Revolution in March, with qualifying matches starting next week.
- Tony Khan has a “Huge Announcement” next week on Dynamite.
I guess Khan’s news on Rampage was that he has a Huge Announcement on Dynamite. After Rampage was over, Khan tweeted more about next week’s Huge Announcement, saying a “top wrestler” will step through the Forbidden Door:
As referenced on #AEWRampage, I have a surprise: on #AEWDynamite Live on @TBSNetwork a top wrestler will walk through the Forbidden Door this Wednesday and debut in @AEW. More info to come. Thank you to everyone who joined us for a great Rampage tonight! See you Wednesday on TBS!

He followed up with a somewhat cryptic Forbidden Door philosophy class:
The Forbidden Door can be opened for anyone from any wrestling promotion in the world, whether or not it’s a company @AEW is on good terms with, even if it’s someone from a company that’s open for business. They’re also welcome to slam the door in the face of their prior company.
