Tony Khan announces Blake Christian is All Elite
Blake Christian is All Elite.
Following AEW Collision on Saturday night in Tucson, where Christian and his tag partner Lee Johnson participated in the $200,000 four-way tag team match, Tony Khan posted to social media that Christian is officially All Elite.
Khan wrote:
“The Swirl, Vanilla Baby Blake Christian + @BigShottyLee, had another excellent showing on Saturday #AEWCollision tonight, and now it’s official: @_BlakeChristian is All Elite!”
The other member of The Swirl, Lee Johnson, received his All Elite graphic from AEW back in February 2021. Johnson is listed on the All Elite Wrestling roster page, while Christian does not currently have a profile on the page.
In addition to their recent matches on AEW programming, The Swirl are active in Ring of Honor, where they have aligned with Jay Lethal.
Christian had a brief run in WWE as Trey Baxter in 2021. He was released from the company that November and made his AEW debut on an episode of Dark the following March.
