## The quick version

AEW used Saturday's Collision on Nov. 7 to promote Brady Booker, a developmental wrestler for AEW and Ring of Honor who has just been on the CBS reality show Survivor, Wrestling Inc reported on Nov. 8.

## What aired

The video showed clips from Booker's season of Survivor 51 in Fiji, including a swim, a crate pushed through a net and a machete, then footage of him in AEW and ROH rings, per Wrestling Inc. In it, Booker says he is ready "to take on the elite competition that AEW has to offer," Wrestling Inc says.

AEW posted on X: "OUTWIT. OUTPLAY. OUTLAST. OUTWRESTLE! After being pushed to his limits on Season 51 of @survivorcbs, #AEW and @ringofhonor developmental star @bradybooker_ is ready to turn his focus to the competition in #AEW!"

## His record

Wrestling Inc says Booker has wrestled nearly two dozen times under the AEW and ROH banner, largely in dark matches. It lists AEW Dark matches in 2023 against Serpentico and Dak Draper. It says he wrestled for WWE as Bodhi Hayward.

Wrestling Inc also says he is the third pro wrestler to compete on Survivor, after John Morrison and Ashley Massaro. Morrison, who works for AEW and ROH as Johnny TV, placed 12th on Survivor: David vs. Goliath, it says.
