Influx Of AEW Signings Expected - Includes Released WWE Stars (AEW News)
As many as 7 wrestlers are "waiting" to be signed by AEW. Some of them are recent WWE releases.
The Wrestling Observer has confirmed that as many as 7 wrestlers could be about to sign on the dotted line with Tony Khan and join the AEW or ROH rosters soon. According to write-ups, this includes some recently-released WWE names who have been "waiting" it out on 90-day non compete clauses since leaving Triple H's nest.
However, The Observer doesn't have a definitive list of exactly who is involved here - they just know that Khan might be set to bolster his already-bursting at the seams line up with more workers. That'll have those already struggling to find house room on episodes of Dynamite, Collision or even ROH On HonorClub on high alert.
Spots are at a premium, and now there's going to be even more competition for them.
An internal source within All Elite Wrestling told The Observer that there "may be more" than the 7 originally teased. So, a huge influx of talent may be about to converge on the AEW scene as things heat up heading into this weekend's Redemption pay-per-view and the blockbuster Wembley Stadium show All In London over in the UK next month.
This is certainly an exciting time for Khan and AEW, but...does his roster really need more weight? Again, it's already a busy locker room, and it's hard to imagine everyone being happy with the thought of even more bodies knocking around the place.
Stay tuned for more on this story as it develops. It shouldn't be long until outlets get word on some of the names involved.
