It's A Connection: Details On Why Former World Champion Re-Signed With AEW

That’s a good reason. AEW has changed the way the wrestling world works as there is now another major promotion other than WWE. That is the kind of thing that has been needed in wrestling for a very long time now, as it offers wrestlers another place to appear on a large stage. Now a former world champion has decided to stick around and we have a better idea as to why.

Earlier this week, news broke that former Ring Of Honor World Champion Rush has re-signed with AEW. Rush’s on-screen manager Jose The Assistant sent out a tweet about the signing, saying that Rush re-signed with AEW because of his relationship with owner Tony Khan. Jose said that family is important to Rush and Khan showed concern for Rush’s wife and newborn. While Rush reportedly had other offers, AEW was the only place Rush considered. There is no word on how long Rush’s new deal lasts.

Family is important to Rush, seeing how much Tony cared is what solidified the deal.

Rush has done well in AEW. Check out what he has done so far:

Opinion: This is one of those things that makes sense as Rush is someone who has done well in AEW but he could go a lot further. If nothing else, AEW is going to want to have him around to see just how far he can go. If that happens to keep him away from WWE, it makes things even better for AEW in the long run. Now just find something for him to do and it will get better.
