Recent reports have suggested that Shelton Benjamin was in discussions with All Elite Wrestling, with talks between the two sides believed to have been ongoing for over a month.
The former WWE, ROH, and NJPW star was asked about AEW during a conversation at For the Love of Wrestling, with Benjamin saying the following:
"As far as AEW goes, that door's open. My door's open. I haven't eliminated any possibilities as of yet," Benjamin said. “Again, the ball is really in their court.”
Earlier in the same conversation ‘The Gold Standard’ was asked his thoughts on some of AEW’s recent signings:
"Okada, while I've worked alongside of him in New Japan, we never actually had a match so I would love to work with Okada. Obviously, I would love to work with Will Ospreay because I think that guy's phenomenal. I've been watching him for years. People call me athletic but he does stuff that I couldn't even... It would put me in traction to even try some of the moves he does but I would love to work with him, I think it could be a lot of fun,” said Benjamin.
