Jake Roberts in a new faction on AEW programming

Jake Roberts is part of a new faction in All Elite Wrestling and it isn't a group anyone expected.
The WWE Hall of Famer made his return to AEW TV on the special Title Tuesday edition of AEW Dynamite, making a deal with Don Callis for Lance Archer to join the Don Callis Family.
The arrangement was ultimately a trade and following Hologram's win over Komander later in the show, Roberts made his way onto the stage before Rush, The Beast Mortos, and Dralistico ran to the squared circle and attacked the two competitors.
La Faccion Ingobernable then raised their fists in the ring and pointed at Jake Roberts, who confirmed he was the newest member of LFI by raising his own first into the air.
Rush was briefly linked to Don Callis on AEW programming but the angle appeared to have been dropped before Tuesday's show.
Jake Roberts has been a part of All Elite Wrestling since 2020, joining the promotion as Lance Archer's manager. Roberts had remained aligned with Archer until Tuesday's show and he also managed The Righteous for a spell.
Jake 'The Snake' revealed in March that he had re-signed with AEW for another year.
