Update On Wardlow's AEW Status

Wardlow has been away from AEW programming for well over a year, initially dealing with various injuries that kept him away from the ring. It was later known that Wardlow was away filming for the American Gladiators reboot, something that WWE were not happy with as they had their own talent such as The Miz appearing too, and reportedly didn’t want crossover between WWE and AEW names. AEW’s Kamille was also filming for the TV project.

Fightful Select have provided an update on Wardlow and his AEW status. Following on from him being backstage at AEW All In, Wardlow was also backstage at AEW Dynamite in Cleveland, Ohio this week, though this is believed to be due to him being from the area. It has been further revealed that Wardlow is now not only cleared, but filming for two seasons of American Gladiators is now complete, meaning that the former TNT Champion is available for an AEW return. 

It is noted that those in AEW have already begun discussions on how to bring Wardlow back into the fold, but no details have been learned on this front.
