The Rascalz officially announced as part of AEW

The Rascalz are officially All Elite.

After Dezmond Xavier and Zachary Wentz teamed with Eddie Kingston and Ortiz to defeat the Grizzled Young Veterans, Big Bill, and Bryan Keith in a parking lot brawl, Tony Khan officially announced that the trio had signed with All Elite Wrestling, posting their graphic on social media.

It was first announced back on the January 14 edition of Dynamite that The Rascalz were heading to AEW, with Xavier, Wentz, and Myron Reed appearing on the following episode of Collision. Last week, they reunited with Eddie Kingston and agreed to team with him to take on GYV and Big Bill and Bryan Keith. The eight men fought on top of a parking lot overseeing the Las Vegas strip. After Ortiz powerbombed Drake on a car hood, Kingston scored the win for his team after a DDT on Gibson.

When The Rascalz made their debut, one person was mysteriously absent: Trey Miguel. Although he had signed with the company, he was quickly released due to higher-ups at Warner Bros. Discovery reportedly blocking his signing due to previous controversial tweets. Miguel originally chose to walk away from pro wrestling following his release, but soon after chose instead to re-sign with TNA.
