Select Portions: Chad Gable, Jake Hager, More
Added 2024-06-03 18:47:15 +0000 UTCAs revealed on Fightful Select's Backstage Report Podcast today, Chad Gables deal is set to expire Friday. WWE is obviously interested in retaining him.
Mark Henry is expected to appear for MLW again in the future.
Fightful will have a presence at this weekend's Black Label Pro show, as well as WWE Clash at the Castle, AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, WWE Money in the Bank, TNA Slammiversary, and WWE Summerslam.
Because we've been posed this question a lot -- no, WWE have not been leaking the upcoming contract expirations. None of them we've reported about have come from WWE as a company or PR.
Fightful reached out to Jake Hager last week regarding BodySlam.net's reports that his contract had expired. We didn't hear back, but AEW sources indicated there was no plan to use him. Even though he retired from MMA last year, we've heard from at least one promotion interested in using him.
Marina Shafir is back in action on ROH TV this week. She'd been backstage at recent AEW shows as well.

Who’s Asking
2024-06-04 02:52:34 +0000 UTCCardona, Ali and Ryan have all proven there is good money to be made by name wrestlers, on the indy circuit, if you are willing to work your butt off.

2024-06-03 21:59:06 +0000 UTCI'm torn. I think the better place for Chad Gable is in AEW, but their roster is far too bloated for him to make an impact. I think his presentation in WWE is just ok. I wonder if he'd try and tear it up on the indies.
