Ricky Starks to Challenge KENTA for DEFY World Championship at DEFY Hundredth – Ricky Starks is officially set to face DEFY World Champion KENTA at the promotion’s milestone event, DEFY Hundredth, on February 7, 2025. This announcement follows Starks’ surprise appearance at DEFY Blueprint on December 29, where he confronted KENTA after the champion retained his title against Schaff.
Tickets for DEFY Hundredth will go on sale starting December 31, with the event expected to draw significant attention thanks to this highly anticipated match. The bout will mark Starks’ return to DEFY, a promotion he last competed in during DEFY LOUD back in July 2018.
While Starks has not appeared on AEW programming since March 2024, he remains under contract with the company. In recent months, he has started taking bookings on the independent circuit, including an upcoming match against Mike Santana at House of Glory’s Watch The Throne event in Chicago.
The clash between KENTA and Starks at DEFY Hundredth promises to be a compelling showdown as Starks looks to make a significant impact in his return to the DEFY ring. Fans eagerly await this match, which could set the tone for Starks’ next chapter in professional wrestling.
