Anna Jay is once again at the center of contractual discussions in All Elite Wrestling. According to Fightful Select, her contract does not expire as soon as some thought, but it will expire in a relatively short period: spring of 2026. The internal belief at AEW was that the agreement would end early next year, although a slightly longer duration has now been confirmed.

The topic gained traction when it was rumored in the locker room that Jay was expecting to be part of the women's Blood and Guts, which ultimately did not happen. Since then, her presence on television completely disappeared, and both she and her partner Tay Guevara have been off programming for weeks. Sources consulted indicate that both situations are not necessarily related.

An open future: Jay considers listening to offers

Information suggests that the wrestler is not ruling out testing the market once her current agreement concludes. Jay has been a recurring presence since her early days in AEW, and her involvement with groups like The Dark Order or Jericho Appreciation Society has kept her in relevant positions, although never in a stable manner in the title scene.

With her contract entering its final stretch, and a 2026 that is shaping up to be particularly competitive among American companies, Anna Jay's situation could become one of the stories to follow in the upcoming hiring window.
