AEW has a lot of talented wrestlers under contract on its roster in addition to the ROH roster and not everyone can be used on every program that the promotion has to offer, whether that be Dynamite, Rampage, or Collision.
RUSH, who recently announced his departure from AAA, has been away from AEW TV for the last month. He last competed on the May 24th episode of AEW Rampage when he teamed Preston Vance and Dralistico against Billy Gunn and The Acclaimed.
It was recently reported that RUSH has been out of action of late due to what was said to be fixing visa issues. It was also noted that his deal is believed to be up soon and when he quit AAA, there was talk of it opening the door to try to talk with WWE when he legally can.
As seen below, he responded to a fan to address this report by noting that is not the case. He didn’t provide a reason as to why he hasn’t been used on television:
My visa has never had any issues, I have been living in USA for a month now.
