Report: More AEW Departures Potentially Planned For March

Much has been made of All Elite Wrestling’s large roster, but it could be that more releases are set to come in March after the recent departure of several talents.

Leyla Hirsch is the latest name to exit the promotion, with ‘Legit’s contract expiring at the end of February. Speaking on Wrestling Observer Live, Bryan Alvarez reported that more exits could come this month:

“I think that this will not be the last time you hear this story in the month of March. I have heard that there might be some departures coming up in March. Whether it’s people being released, people’s deals coming up and not being renewed. I think the fact of the matter is, they got way too many people under contract…”

Alvarez continued, “I think I can comfortably say she [Leyla Hirsch] will not be the last in the next 30 days.”

Hirsch’s exit came a few weeks after the high profile departures of Ricky Starks, Malakai Black, and Miro. In the case of Black and Hirsch their contracts were allowed to expire, whilst Miro and Starks were handed their releases having earlier requested them.
