Report: Kairi Sane Believed To Be Waiting For US Visa In Order To Join AEW

All Elite Wrestling may soon add Kairi Sane to the promotion's roster of talent.

According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, the belief is that Kairi Sane is simply waiting for her work visa in order to join All Elite Wrestling. Sane is scheduled for the upcoming Chris Jericho's Rock N Wrestling Rager at Sea cruise from November 7 to November 11, which will also feature an episode of AEW Collision, but the belief is Kairi can work on the cruise as the boat is, obviously, at sea.

Kairi Sane had been a part of WWE but she was released by the organisation as part of major roster cuts in the aftermath of WrestleMania 42 in April 2026.

It emerged in early September that Kairi had held talks with AEW and a number of companies were interested in Sane. Fightful Select noted over WrestleDream weekend that Kairi had not signed with All Elite Wrestling as of this past weekend, although the two sides have continued to hold talks. There is heavy interest in Kairi in Japan but that interest is being held up by Sane's discussions with AEW.
