Longtime AEW wrestler’s contract believed to expire soon
A new report from Fightful Select has the contract of longtime AEW women’s wrestler Anna Jay possibly expiring soon.
The outlet stated Thursday that her deal is believed to be up in “the next few months.” While there is no news on whether they have been negotiating, it’s also believed AEW would like to keep her.
Jay and TayJay teammate Tay Melo were eliminated from the AEW Women’s World Tag Team title tournament on Wednesday’s Dynamite. Jay has yet to hold a championship in either AEW or ROH.
The 27-year-old debuted in April 2020 as part of the Nightmare Factory pandemic era tapings in Norcross, Georgia. Since then, she’s wrestled nearly 130 times in AEW and five times in Ring of Honor. She also spent a month in Japan in August 2024 working in Stardom that was seen as a big benefit to her in-ring career.
As part of an outpouring of social media support following her team’s loss Wednesday, Jay sent a single tweet on Thursday afternoon:
