AEW/ROH star Brian Cage is on his way out of the company.
Cage’s status with the promotion has been speculated about for several months. To the surprise of many, considering he wasn’t being used often, AEW/ROH President Tony Khan extended Cage’s deal last year.
Since then, Cage has been used more on the ROH brand in addition to occasional AEW appearances. As previously reported, the two sides were in talks for a new deal.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted Cage’s deal has expired. However, Cage has agreed to work ROH Supercard of Honor this Friday when The Embassy (Cage, Kaun, and Toa Liona) defend their Six-Man Tag Team Titles against AR Fox, Blake Christian, and Metalik.
“Brian Cage apparently is finishing up. That’s what I hear, that he’s finishing up unless they sign him to a new deal. If they do, then he’s not finishing up. His deal has expired, but he’s agreed to do business and drop the belts on the way out if in fact he doesn’t sign. We’ll see how that turns out,” Meltzer stated.
