All Elite Wrestling's Cody Rhodes has welcomed two new wrestlers into his Nightmare Family collective.

'The Prince of Pro Wrestling' dropped the announcements on Twitter yesterday, adding Nick Comoroto and Aaron Solow to a group that already includes Cody, Dustin, and Brandi Rhodes, plus Lee Johnson, QT Marshall, and more. Like Johnson, Comoroto and Solow will now presumably train under the group's senior members at the Nightmare Factory wrestling school.

Comoroto, 29, was released from WWE as part of the promotion's mass cuts in April 2020. He started appearing for AEW in October, carving out a niche as a powerful Dark bruiser with a unique look, and made his Dynamite bow this January, losing to Jon Moxley via referee's decision. Last week's Dark saw him team with the Natural Nightmares (Marshall and Dustin) to claim his first official AEW victory.

That first W continues to elude Solow, who has wrestled 18 Dark matches without victory since arriving in July 2020. The 11-year veteran has nonetheless excelled in his enhancement role.

AEW hasn't announced Solow or Comoroto as official signings, though it's safe to assume that they, like many other Dark regulars, have some kind of agreement with the promotion.
