AEW Blames "Experts" For Quiet Stable Breakup
This AEW faction has quietly broken up; leader points finger of blame.
AEW's QT Marshall has responded to a fan on Twitter asking why The Factory stable hasn't been featured more on programming like Dynamite, Rampage, Dark or even Dark: Elevation lately.
According to QT, "the amount of Factory hate from "experts" in wrestling was too much", and so the group had to quietly disband. It's unclear whether or not this was a call from All Elite boss Tony Khan or somebody else in the promotion, but it looks like Marshall's lower-card stable is no more.
For the record, The Factory was comprised of QT, Aaron Solo, Anthony Ogogo, Cole Karter, Lee Johnson and Nick Comoroto until splitting recently. There's been no word from Marshall about what he or any of the other members will do on TV going forwards.
QT formed The Factory in 2021 after turning on Cody Rhodes, but the group was never really given much house room on flagship TV. Marshall did, however, encourage fans to "keep [their] eyes on" all of his ex-stablemates to see where they might pop back up.
So, there you go - AEW has quietly disbanded a faction, and some people didn't even notice.
