Austin and Colten Gunn have recently signed new multi-year deals to remain with AEW.

As per Fightful Select, the new AEW Tag Team Champions have penned contracts that will keep them #AllElite for the next several years, though the exact specifics of these deals are not known - bar the fact that they are multi-year agreements.

For Austin Gunn, he officially joined AEW back in January 2020. In the case of older brother Colten, AEW never announced his initial signing, so it's unclear how long he has formally been with the promotion.

Of course, the Gunn Club - or Ass Boys, if you will - caused quite the online buzz last Wednesday when they dethroned the Acclaimed to become the AEW Tag Team Champions. To many wrestling fans, taking those belts off Max Caster and Anthony Bowens was certainly a bold choice from Tony Khan, with Caster and Bowens having continued to prove themselves as one of the most popular acts in the company during their 140 days with the gold.

It remains to be seen whether the Acclaimed will get a rematch against the Gunns, but Friday's edition of AEW Rampage seemed to indicate that Caster and Bowens will be tied up with Jay Lethal, Jeff Jarrett, Satnam Singh and Sonjay Dutt in the immediate future.
