AEW Is Less Confident Daniel Garcia Will Sign A New Deal Amid WWE Interest

At one point, it looked like AEW would keep Daniel Garica under contract despite WWE’s interest. However, that confidence within AEW has taken a hit these days.

Garcia returned to AEW programming during MJF vs. Will Ospreay for the International Title at the AEW All In London 2024 pay-per-view event, where he cost MJF the win. He later put over MJF at All Out before laying him out.

Garcia has yet to sign a new deal. His contract is up in October 2024, and WWE is interested in him. While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer discussed the latest on Garcia’s status with AEW.

Meltzer said, “Yes, it has everything to do with that [AEW not using him on TV because he hasn’t re-signed]. I don’t think that they want to put him on TV until he makes the commitment. And I get it. Why? You can use the TV time for people who are signed. As far as what’s going to happen with him…I would say that the almost surety or the strong confidence that he was signing, I wouldn’t say that it’s as strong. I wouldn’t say that he’s leaving either but it’s not as strong as it was a month ago. He may leave. The fact he didn’t sign before the last pay-per-view was one that is like, ‘Hey, wait a minute, why didn’t he sign before the last pay-per-view?’ It made a difference.”
