Having made a surprise appearance on last night's AEW Collision broadcast, Ace Austin is the latest name to become #AllElite.

It was reported earlier in the week that Austin was in action at the latest Collision taping, and that match aired last night, with Inevitable coming up short against Ricochet. However, despite that loss, Ace has signed with the company, complete with Tony Khan coming out after the match to ask if the former TNA standout wanted to become "elite". Austin said he'd been great for a long time, that exceptional wasn't enough, and that he did, indeed, want to become "elite".

Still only 28 years of age, Ace Austin is an incredible talent with a whole bunch of personality to match his explosive in-ring work, and he's competed all around for the likes of Pro Wrestling Revolver, New Japan Pro-Wrestling, CZW, GCW, Maple Leaf Pro, RevPro, House of Glory, and a whole bunch of other promotions.

As alluded to, Ace is likely best known for his years with TNA, where he's also a three-time TNA X Division and a three-time TNA Tag Team Champion with Chris Bey as the ABC tandem, not to mention the duo having been a part of Bullet Club. It remains to be seen whether Ace Austin may pick things up with AEW's current Bullet Club members, as in the Bang Bang Gang/Bullet Club Gold collection of Jay White, Juice Robinson, and Austin and Colten Gunn, although both Switchblade and Colten are out of action right now.
