HOOK turned heads when he was seen out with Ava Dash, the daughter of hip-hop mogul Damon Dash.
The AEW star attended the Los Angeles Lakers vs. New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden, where the two were spotted in Tommy Hilfigers suite. The apparel brand even shared a video of the moment on Instagram, further fueling interest in the pair.
Since making his AEW debut in 2020 as part of Team Taz, HOOK has steadily built his reputation. Originally aligning with his father, Taz, alongside Brian Cage, Ricky Starks, and Powerhouse Hobbs, he transitioned into singles competition in 2021. His breakout moment came in July 2022 when he defeated Ricky Starks for the FTW Championship, a title with deep family ties, as it was originally established by Taz in ECW.
HOOKs run with the FTW Title saw him face off against Jack Perry in the summer of 2023, eventually reclaiming the championship in August before retiring it a month later, returning the belt to his father. Now part of a strong alliance with Samoa Joe and Katsuyori Shibata, HOOK continues to be a key figure in AEW.
