With WWE SummerSlam heading to Cleveland on August 3, two current champions made their way to an independent show.

Absolute Intense Wrestling Against the World took place on August 1, 2024 and former AIW Absolute Champion Johnny Gargano made his return to the company.
Not only was the current WWE Tag Team Champion in attendance, but he brought his tag team partner, Tommaso Ciampa, with him, as can be seen in the fan footage shared below this news story.

Earlier in the evening, Gargano had given a bit of a tease suggesting that he was looking for something to do, tweeting:

After appearing on the show, Gargano reacted to his return to AIW on Twitter, posting:

He debuted for AIW in February 2006 and would go on to be a two-time Intense Championship, alongside holding the Absolute Championship.
With WWE SmackDown coming from Cleveland on August 2, #DIY faces The Bloodline in a Tag Team Championship match.
