Fast, flashy, and cocky, Scorpio Sky is everything a modern wrestling promoter should be searching for. He's a mostly complete project who, although will never be your headline act, is a dependable and serviceable top mid-carder who can bring the best out of your entire roster.

Tony Khan has realised this sporadically throughout AEW's five years. Promoting Scorpio and Frankie Kazarian as the inaugural AEW World Tag Team Champions was a sentimental pick - they'd opened the first two PPVs to a nice reaction - but their reign was unremarkable. Sky didn't fare much better as TNT Champion, hot-potatoing the strap with Sammy Guevara after a period of Sammy doing the same with Cody Rhodes. It wasn't healthy for the title and it certainly wasn't healthy for those involved either, given that, until the maiden broadcast of Collision, Scorpio Sky's last AEW appearance was on 6 July 2022.

It's no surprise, then, that Scorpio may have been scouting potential landing points post-AEW.

He was snapped backstage during IMPACT Wrestling's 2023 No Surrender, being seen beside IMPACT regular Chris Bey and company prospect Shogun. Although his presence backstage appears to be that of moral support for long-time pal Kazarian, it wouldn't hurt for Scorpio Sky to join the company. He was a burst of life in the X division throughout 2012 and 2013, and he'd have the same effect a decade on.
