AEW Signs Viva Van

All Elite Wrestling have reportedly signed Viva Van, with the indie standout stating on social media that she has signed with the promotion.

Rumours in late 2024 suggested that the ‘Hellbent Vixen’ had agreed a deal with AEW, with Viva Van having wrestled several times on AEW TV in 2024, as well as a handful of appearance for AEW sister brand Ring of Honor, with Van’s last match on ROH TV taped on November 7, 2024.

On X/Twitter, Van posted a video unboxing several pieces of AEW merchandise, stating it was the first merch package she has received from the company since signing.

Viva Van had a busy 2024, with regular appearances for CMLL and NJPW, alongside appearances for the likes of DEFY and GCW. In NJPW, Van is the first Vietnamese-American wrestler to have competed in the company, as well as being the first female wrestler to have headlined a show in Vietnam when she took on former ROH star Sumie Sakai in 2023.

Trained by WWE legend Rikishi, Viva Van has been wrestling since 2018, and has been a guest of Cultaholic’s own Tom Campbell on Desert Island Graps.
