• Tony Khan Reveals AEW’s 2 Latest Signings
Momentum and trust were the deciding factors behind AEW’s newest signings. During the post-show media scrum at AEW Worlds End, Tony Khan confirmed that Hyan and Maya World are officially All Elite, offering insight into what pushed the company to lock them in.
Khan emphasized that the decision wasn’t based on potential alone. Instead, it came from repeated performances that consistently delivered. Each time the duo appeared in AEW, they raised their level of competition, proving they could hang with the roster and contribute meaningful matches rather than simply fill spots on the card.
Equally important was what happened away from the cameras. Khan noted that Hyan and Maya World quickly earned respect backstage – something he views as a critical measure of a wrestler’s value. That locker room credibility, paired with their in-ring output, made the choice to sign them feel natural rather than rushed.
Another factor was flexibility. Khan explained that AEW’s women’s division benefits from performers who can slide seamlessly between singles competition and tag team roles, and he believes both women check that box. Their ability to strengthen multiple areas of the division made them especially appealing additions.
Beyond roster needs, Khan also framed the signing as a statement. As 2025 wrapped up, he wanted to close the year by highlighting something positive and forward-looking. Making Hyan and Maya World officially All Elite was, in his view, a way to reward consistency, effort, and earned opportunity – and to signal confidence in where AEW’s women’s division is headed next.
They wrestled another fantastic match at the #AEWWorldsEnd Zero Hour tonight, and now it’s official: @_thehyan + @MayaWorldd are All Elite!
