An AEW star has surprisingly re-signed, but not surprising for the reason you might think.

Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp has learned that AEW’s Kevin Knight recently re-signed with the company. Knight signed a one-year contract at the start of 2025 after his last deal with New Japan expired right before Wrestle Kingdom that year. 

He’s now on a multi-year deal. His work has been highly regarded within AEW. He became trios champion along side Speedball Mike Bailey and Hangman Page, and just worked against Swerve Strickland and MJF on AEW TV. 

We’re told the signing was made earlier this year.

An awesome addition to the roster

Wait, so why is it surprising? Because the original deal was surprisingly short?

Why the hell did Tony only give him an initial one year contract?

Tucker

Future of the company. He's gonna be a main event by next year.

I'm guessing that was just as much a decision Knight made, in case he was benched like countless others
