• MJF Doesn’t Want Released WWE Star In AEW
WWE has carried out its annual spring roster cuts, releasing 24 wrestlers across both the main roster and developmental brands. With several names set to enter free agency in the near future, speculation has already begun over potential signings in AEW under Tony Khan.

• AEW Wrestler Is Against Tony Khan Signing Aleister Black & Zelina Vega
Aleister Black was released by WWE in 2021 before joining AEW, where he became unhappy with his creative direction in 2022 and requested his release, which was not granted at the time.
After his AEW contract expired last year, Black returned to WWE. He was released on Friday again alongside his wife, Zelina Vega, in WWE’s latest round of cuts.
Following the releases, a fan suggested on Threads that AEW should bring Aleister Black back and reunite him with the House of Black, the faction he originally founded, also proposing that Zelina Vega be added to the group.
“Just add Zelina and we got the House of Black again.”
However, AEW Extras Coordinator and Ring Of Honor World 6-Man Tag Team Champion Shawn Dean quickly shut the idea down, dismissing the suggestion outright with a blunt: “No.”

• WWE Wrestler Returns After Nearly 1 Year
Noam Dar made his return to in-ring action after nearly a year away, competing at a WWE NXT live event in Dade City, Florida, last night. He was forced to relinquish the NXT Heritage Cup during his time on the sidelines.
Dar picked up a win over The Vanity Project’s Jackson Drake, marking his first match back since his last outing on June 13, 2025, against Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo.
Before this latest injury, Dar had already suffered another setback that kept him out of action for around 11 months.
