Fuego Del Sol Unsure If Tony Khan Ever Bought Into Him In AEW

Fuego Del Sol unsure if AEW’s Tony Khan ever bought into him as a wrestler

Fuego Del Sol recently revealed that he would become a free agent after the expiration of his All Elite Wrestling contract, with Fuego leaving the company after nearly two years as a contracted star.

During his time with the company, Fuego was mainly used as enhancement talent, despite getting over due to his appearances on Sammy Guevara’s vlog, as well as his spirited displays against the likes of Miro. During an interview with Sean Ross Sapp, Fuego revealed that he didn’t feel that Tony Khan bought into him during his time in the company:

“At the end of the day, and I have no clue if this is true or not, I've always felt that I was able to win over the online crowd, I was able to win over a lot of higher ups in the back. I just don't know if I ever fully got Tony to buy into me fully. You know what I'm saying? He definitely signed me, and I'm incredibly grateful for that. I would love to ask you. But I just feel like I never fully believed in it. It's his company, it's his vision and he's got so many great talents that are he's got to figure out and puzzle piece to get on the show. So, I understand at the end of the day that you know right now is my time to leave and try to go do other things," Fuego Del Sol said.
