short-sleeveShort Sleeve Sampson, one of the stars of the Awesome Wrestling Entertainment pay-per-view broadcast live from Augusta Expo in Fishersville, Va., in 2011, will be making an appearance at WWE’s Extreme Rules pay-per-view on Sunday.

It is expected that Sampson, who is currently on his 2014 Midget Time retirement tour, will be featured in the WeeLC match announced between Hornswaggle and El Torito.

Sampson appeared on the Shenandoah Valley Championship Wrestling card in Luray, Va., in March, and has been a fixture on indy cards in the Valley in recent years, including a 2013 Top Rope Pro Wrestling show in Lexington, Va., on which he defeated Meatball to win the Micro Championship Wrestling World Championship.
