Tony Khan would love to bring CIMA and the STRONGHEARTS back to AEW.
The trio of CIMA, T-Hawk, and El Lindaman were prevalent throughout the early days of All Elite Wrestling, often competing in tag and trios bouts. CIMA even got the chance to shine as a singles star in AEW, wrestling Kenny Omega, Darby Allin, and Christopher Daniels throughout 2019.
The trio hasn't appeared in AEW since February 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic began to shut down the world the very next month.
While speaking to Q01 for a new interview, Tony Khan stated that he would love to bring the trio back to AEW.
“At some point, I would love to have CIMA back, and I would love to have the Strong Hearts back. T-Hawk and Lindaman were excellent. I think those guys did a fantastic job. It’s great to hear that there’s interest to see the Strong Hearts back in AEW, and I would not be opposed to that at all. I think it’s great. I would love to see the Strong Hearts and the Dark Order pick up because believe me, it’s not something we’ve closed the book on. Just like nobody knows when Shaquille O’Neal left the ambulance, it remains to be seen, my friend. It’s a great question, but that chapter’s still open. You never know. Sooner or later, I look forward to maybe answering it for you."
Elsewhere in the interview, Tony Khan said that he originally planned on creating the Hologram character in 2020. Learn more about those comments here.
