AEW Roster: Every Confirmed Name (So Far)

9. Joey Janela/Penelope Ford

AEW Joey Janela
All Elite Wrestling

Speaking of former CZW Wired Champions, AEW have another on their books too. It's Joey Janela, a man who has developed quite the swagger since holding that belt a bunch of times between 2015-2016.

Janela will be familiar to UK wrestling fans by way of his appearances in PROGRESS (check out his deathmatch lunacy with the ever-violent Jimmy Havoc for some blood-soaked fun), but he's also worked in PWG since 2017 and entered the promotion's BOLA tournament that year.

It's important to note Janela is bringing valet Penelope Ford along for the All Elite ride. Though she's an accomplished wrestler herself, Ford hasn't yet been announced as a proper part of the AEW roster. It looks like she'll only be at ringside for Janela, at least for now.
