Lio Rush Re-Signs With AEW

Lio Rush is once again All Elite, with the 29-year-old confirming that he has signed his second contract with Tony Khan's promotion.

Alicia Atout confirmed the news in an AEW digital exclusive on Sunday.

Rush was initially signed to the company between November 2021 and February 2022, when he announced his free agency.

"This right here means a lot of people are getting put on notice, this officially means that I’m All Elite, that I’m back in AEW," he told Atout before MVP and Shelton Benjamin entered the room.

Interrupting, MVP and Benjamin asked if they knew where Tony Khan was, to which Rush told them whatever they wanted could wait. MVP then asked Rush if he was available on Wednesday, possibly setting the stage for a match with Benjamin on Dynamite.

Rush made a surprise return to AEW in the Forbidden Door Casino Gauntlet match on the May 29 edition of Dynamite and has primarily wrestled on Collision and Rampage since.

Despite some lingering animosity between him and Khan, it was expected that Rush would be an AEW regular moving forward.
