Switchblade Jay White is All Elite.

The former IWGP Heavyweight Champion made the shock debut during the April 5th edition of AEW Dynamite.

Ricky Starks made his entrance for his scheduled match against Juice Robinson. However, the music would be cut off as the crowd in Long Island erupted as White came to the ring and launched a 2 on 1 attack with the help of Robinson. White hit the Bladerunner onto Starks to close out the opening segment.

Following the appearance, it was announced shortly afterwards that The Switchblade is now All Elite, with the traditional graphic being posted to social media.
