AEW Signs Eddie Kingston
After making a strong impression on the microphone and in the ring against Cody on Dynamite 2 weeks back, AEW has signed Eddie Kingston. The 18-year veteran pro has had stints with ROH, the NWA, CHIKARA, Impact Wrestling, CZW, and PWG.
“I learned a long time ago, in this life, you never lose, you learn,” Kingston said following his match with Cody on Dynamite. “I learned tonight that Cody is the better man, he’s the better grappler, he was the better fighter. But just tonight. I’ve been doing this for a very long time … I have nothing else in this life that I love doing.”
“So whether AEW brings me back or not, I’m going to keep going. I’m going to keep going until the wheels fall off,” Kingston continued. As it turns out, AEW will be bringing him back regularly as an official member of its roster.
Kingston spent 2019 with the National Wrestling Alliance. He formed “Outlaw Inc” along with former ROH World Champion, Homicide. In 2018, Kingston managed “The OGZ” in a feud against Konnan and LAX. The OGZ consisted of former LAX members Homicide and Hernandez.

I guess he won't be working for NWA anymore then, if he doesn't have one of these multi-promotion deals. Sad for NWA :(

Loads of people have been leaving NWA and joining AEW

Dude can talk. Can sell. And can work. I'm all for it. AEW NEEDS people like EK. If they keep him away from the stupid comedy bullshit, it might work out. Now, I don't know about if he can work for both AEW & NWA, but I'm hoping he can because that is a big loss for the NWA.
