Although the deal is not done, AEW is currently in negotiations with former WWE wrestler and manager Lio Rush.
Rush, still only 25 years old, has been pitched on an idea to come in and join up with Joey Janela and Sonny Kiss.
Rush has been very focused on his music career since leaving WWE and during COVID-19, he has turned down many offers to wrestle, including international opportunities.
After Matt Sydal ended up being a bust at the AEW pay-per-view, Tony Khan started getting more aggressive with recruiting Rush, although it remains to be seen if a deal will get done.
