Paul Wight will remain with AEW for the time being

Paul Wight will continue to be part of AEW, at least in the medium term. According to a new report, the former champion would have signed a new contract with the company, ensuring his continuity beyond the date when his current agreement was set to expire.

A few months ago, Wight had said in an interview that he wanted to spend the last years of his career in All Elite Wrestling. Although he has not completely closed the door on returning to the ring, in recent months there have been few updates about his future as a wrestler.

The report indicates that his contract with AEW was set to end earlier this year, but internal sources of the company believe that he has reached a new agreement. The duration of the contract has not been confirmed yet, but it is known that he remains firmly tied to the promotion.

Sources from AEW confirmed to Sean Ross Sapp, from Fightful Select, that Paul Wight's contract with the company expired earlier this year. However, it is believed that he has accepted a new agreement to stay with the company. At the moment, we do not know the duration of the contract, but it is believed that he continues to sign with the company.

Wight's continuity also reinforces his role as a familiar presence behind the scenes, where his experience continues to be valuable for the company. Although his in-ring activity is much more limited than in other stages of his career, AEW seems to rely on him to continue contributing in various capacities.
