Update On All Elite Wrestling Contracts, Starrcast Returning, Tony Khan & More
Here are the latest details about All Elite:
– Somewhat lost in the shuffle of news was a clue about the return of Starrcast, the wrestling convention presented by Conrad Thompson during All In weekend. Next Tuesday, The Elite is holding a Double or Nothing rally in Jacksonville, Florida. The poster promoting the rally features the logos of Starrast, a strong indication that the convention will be returning for Double or Nothing weekend. We reached out to Conrad Thompson to get a comment on the return of Starrcast and he simply said “Stay tuned.”
– Sean Radican over at Pro Wrestling Torch had some exclusive details regarding talent contracts for All Elite. According to Radican, AEW has signed several independent wrestlers to “holding deals” that will convert to full deals once the promotion secures a TV deal. The contracts are said to be quite lucrative, with the floor being “a good six figure deal.”
– Radican also confirmed that B.J. Whitmer will be working behind the scenes at AEW. Whitmer recently left Ring of Honor (having worked there in a similar capacity) and tweeted out the AEW logo earlier today.
– Finally, Pro Wrestling Tees has launched the the official merchandise store of AEW. You can see the first AEW merch below:
