Kevin Kelly Claims AEW Cancelled His Severance Package Following Firing

Latest on Kevin Kelly and his AEW exit

In the latest claim about his firing from All Elite Wrestling, Kevin Kelly has stated that AEW scrapped his severance package because he "didn't sign some form or something like that."

Addressing his AEW exit on Refin' It Up, Kelly said: 

"And of course, they fired me and it was real just sh*tty and picky. They gave me a... what do you call it? A little severance package. Very little. Then they took it back. They put it into my account and then a couple of days later, they took it back, because I didn't sign some form or something like that. So, it'll all come out eventually, and when the time is right, I can say, okay, here's all the things that happened: A, B, C, D and E. Here's times that it happened and here's the reason why we're doing what we're doing."

Kelly's time with AEW came to a bitter end in March 2024 after Kelly was released following erratic behaviour on social media and for leaving a heated voice message with a member of AEW's human resources team. 

Kelly stated earlier this year that he plans to sue All Elite Wrestling over his release
