Every wrestler published in 2025

As a company, AEW has turned away from the complete publication of contractual tales in the past. For the majority of the talents that have left promotion in recent years, it is a case of their contracts to simply run out, and AEW decided not to renew them.

Nevertheless, in 2025 several remarkable names of AEW have already published. While it is usually not a good thing for a talent to get their publication, there was now certain that the AWEW stars had actually requested this publication, with the Tony Khan-hired organization decided to give this request and to allow some grapplers out of their shops at an early stage.

At the time of this letter we published a lot of three big names. There was a direct shot, we naturally expired a contract, and finally a star after months of uncertainty about their future was finally granted their release.

Well, although we hope we don't have to update this list to This year, this article is very fluid over the course of the year due to a flood of shots or mass publications, which is refreshed when further names on the AW output door are up to date, while in 2025.

With this in mind, we start things with an absolute superstar who has already made a name for itself with AEW in her rearview mirror.

After almost a year, Ricky Starks sat – although she was fit, healthy and striving for one of three names that publish her AW publication in February.

For many fans, they were constantly amazed by Tony Khan's decision to keep such a talented performer bank, and Ricky's frustrations were clearly felt when he spoke to us at what culture last May. Regardless of the fact that AEW did not use the striking daddy, he decided to trigger a one -year contract extension last year, which would have held it at the company until the second half of 2025.

Fortunately, those who were in power decided to finally grant Ricky's publication last month, and absolute wasted no time – seriously, it was the next day – when signing WWE and direct influence in NXT.

For Ricky in NXT it is initially Holy.

In addition to Ricky Starks, Malakai Black granted February.

For black it was a few strange stop start years under the AEW banner. In the typical case, Malakai only had five individual games in AEW in 2024, and he only had five single games zero Singles matches for the company in 2023.

In addition, it felt like Black stories appeared every few months and request his release or are generally unhappy in Tony Khan's promotion. Likewise, there were regular rumbling of the Dutch who were not ready to do the job, although only the talent and the AEW management will know whether such reports have truth.

At the present time, Malakai Black is still a free agent – one of the hottest in the shop, no less – with all signs that indicate a WWE return than Aleister Black. While the former run of the former NXT champion on the WWE main list was massively fiddled, one has to imagine that Schwarz would be a completely different scenario in a triple H-controlled WWE, with the game presenting the unique Tommy end as a major contract during his time.

Miro was another who had granted his Aew exit.

As soon as he found it as a Redeemer, the Bulgarian brute was an absolute badass and a regular highlight of AEW programming, which cracked and grabbed his back. In fact, one could legitimate an argument that Miro's run as a TNT champion was the biggest run in the history of this title.

And then, as Miro seemed to consolidate a real Main Event spot and possibly becoming a world champion, the former Rusev soon disappeared. To emphasize this point, Miro only ranked 13 AEW games since he reduced the TNT title on Sammy Guevara in September 2021 -four of them were 2022, seven in 2023 and a strong zero game in 2024.

Down from the ring, Miro and CJ Perry divorced last year, although the two are open to the cooperation in the future. As far as the future is concerned for Miro, he is another who is rumored for a WWE return.

AEW Fired Bear Boulder – real name Thomas Wansaw – in February, as soon as the company learned about the arrest of the wrestler in the previous month.

Wansaw was arrested on January 13th by strangulation for battery Given that he was “physically beaten” by him.

In turn, Wansaw's statement to the police agreed with what the victim reported. The case remains open to the current letter, and Wansaw ordered not to have a “enemy/violent contact with the victim”.

Leyla Hirsch often impressed her debut at the end of 2020 when she gave the chance of a television time. Unfortunately, for Legit Leyla, the majority of this television recently had Ring of Ehen rather than AEW programming.

With a smash-mash style of heavy strikes, firm entries and a shot of flying up, which is thrown in for a good measure, Hirsch has a lot of upward trend and should find itself without a lack of freedom from AEW. With regard to her AW output, this was a simple case in which Tony Khan did not want to renew the 28-year-old's contract.

According to all reports, Leyla Hirsch's existing AEW/Roh -Deal ended at the end of February, which means that it is in the early days of the free agency. Where Hirsch appears next, it remains to be seen, but any promotion that is worth the salt should keep an eye on the Russian grappler.

Another case of Finally With this …

During the entire period of 2024 we regularly saw the future of the Lucha Bros in news cycles. Both Penta and Rey Fenix ​​have reportedly observed their AW outputs, with the siblings being jumping to WWE. And while Penta landed in WWE in January after his AEW deal ended last year, things for Fenix ​​were a little different.

Due to certain spells on the margins through injury, Rey found the time for his AEW contract, and it believed that it was up to the second half of this year. This month, however, AEW brought Fenix ​​to the release.

It is not surprising that Rey Fenix ​​will probably take part in Penta in the WWE. The former AW -International Champion is already speculated for a place at Wrestlemania 41.
