Chris Jericho has claimed that All Elite Wrestling have formally signed 2point0.

The former AEW World Champion mentioned this during the latest episode of Talk Is Jericho, on which Matt Lee and Jeff Parker were guests. The veteran added that they couldn't dive into the topic as the former Ever-Rise hadn't inked the deal at the time the podcast was recorded (2 August).

While AEW is yet to unveil the official 2point0 Is #AllElite graphic, Lee and Parker have been all over company programming over the last few weeks. Debuting alongside Daniel Garcia, they wrestled Darby Allin, Jon Moxley, and Eddie Kingston on the 4 August episode of Dynamite, they worked Sting in his first TNT match in 20 years last night. The duo have also been active on Dark and Dark: Elevation, notching up a 3-0 record on the YouTube shows.

There is currently no word on Garcia's status, though he is booked to face Jon Moxley on tomorrow's episode of Rampage.

2point0 were released by WWE on 25 June, but bound only to 30-day non-compete clauses as they had never been moved up from NXT.
