AEW has landed another talent.

Fightful Select has learned from All Elite Wrestling sources that Clark Connors is expected to be signing with the company imminently. It was confirmed that there is an offer that is set to be finalized soon.

Connors appeared on AEW Collision on January 31, taking on Darby Allin, before being joined by Gabe Kidd. The two had been a part of the War Dogs in New Japan Pro Wrestling, where Connors had been signed for years. Fightful Select reported in December that Clark Connors deal with NJPW would be up soon.

AEW sources believe that Clark's appearance and pending contract likely indicate an increased interest from AEW on David Finlay as he heads into free agency.

AEW really needs to sign more women. They are really lacking depth

Talia

Oh please oh please oh please I WILL start watching NXT for Finlay but I sure don't want to 🙏

Manton

Check that ROH roster

MarcustheGod

The ROH is actually really good for the women. But they also need more women there

Talia

🙏 for Janai Kai, she'd fit like a glove. And Lena Kross is showing up at some point.

David Finlay, Clark Connors and Gabe Kidd are ALL ELITE!!

David Finlay really said that he wanted to be with Gabe and Clark in AEW and have bangers with Ospreay, Hangman, Okada, MJF, Swerve, Mox etc than join his brother in the jobber squad in Florida for the next 5 years. My King.

Bayley will be there by the end of the year.

I really like Janai Kai. Don't know much about Lena. Would like them to sign Killer Kelly

Matt Hennessy

Comers & Gable fully expect to land in AEW. With his brother & dad working for WWE I’d honestly be surprised if David Finaly didn’t sign there to be honest

Aristidis Fantis

He doesn't want to be in development for the next 5 years.

It just strikes me how much the wrestling landscape has changed because of AEW. High quality wrestlers in the prime of their careers like Finlay, Connors and Gabe Kidd if they wanted to leave Japan for American wrestling the WWE was really their only option unless they wanted to take substantially less money to go to ROH or TNA. That's no longer the case

Matt Hennessy

I don’t wanna be tribalistic & I’m fine with where ever he lands but why we bashing NXT is has a big tv deal & often draws better then dynamite in viewership.

Speed Punk

I mean I kinda figured he would sign with Aew,after seeing Thekla walk out with him at wrestle kingdom this year. I was like he'd be a good fit if they added him to there group

Lynchman

On top of that, signing with AEW gives many wrestlers the option to work Japan from time to time.
