Note on Two More AEW Contracts Set To Expire Soon
As reported earlier today, Lio Rush announced that he will be a free agent next month as his AEW deal is set to expire. It was later noted that several other wrestlers are set to possibly become free agents soon, including Joey Janela, whose deal is set to expire in early May. It was said that AEW will likely not announce the departures, but rather let them quietly expire.
PWInsider reports that two other wrestlers may be free agents soon, as both Brian Cage and Marko Stunt have deals expiring. There may be others with deals coming up that haven’t been revealed yet.
Stunt’s last appearance on AEW TV was in September. He hasn’t appeared at AEW events lately and hasn’t been mentioned. The Jurassic Express name has quietly been dropped, as Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus are credited under their usual ring names. Stunt has also auditioned for The Voice in recent weeks.
Cage, meanwhile, hasn’t wrestled since losing to Ricky Starks on an October episode of Dynamite. However, he has been backstage regularly during that time.
