Former WWE star Miro, who went by the name of Rusev, is All Elite.
He made his promotional debut on Wednesday’s episode of Dynamite on TNT by being revealed as Kip Sabian’s best man for his upcoming wedding. He did a promo on the show that took place in Jacksonville, Florida at Daily’s Place.
He had been on the sidelines after departing from WWE earlier this year. Miro has been heavily involved in his Twitch channel during this time.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reported today that Miro is signed with AEW as talks have been ongoing for quite a while. Per the report, the deal was “long term pending an option on the deal.”
The deal will allow him to work for NJPW in addition to some dates on the independent wrestling scene. It should be noted that while he can work for NJPW, he can only do so in Japan. Thus, when the COVID-19 pandemic slows down and NJPW starts to run shows again in the United States, he can’t work events in America.
