More details on Thekla's AEW deal (Patreon)

Thekla has signed a new contract with AEW.

Recently, Fightful Select reported that AEW World Champion Thekla re-signed with AEW. This was a bit of a surprise, considering she had well over a year on her contract. However, AEW was pleased with her performance and wanted to nail her down for a new, long-term contract.

Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp has learned that Thekla used representation to get the deal done, which came with a substantial raise. There was expected interest from WWE had she ended up getting to free agency, but things were done so early that those conversations were never broached.
