Brian Cage Signs Long-Term Deal With AEW – Brian Cage Signs Long-Term Deal With AEW/ROH – Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reports that Brian Cage has signed a long-time, multi-year contract that will keep him with AEW and ROH.
Previous reports indicated that some top talent in AEW pushed for Cage to re-sign, but WWE had interest in him as well. Per Sapp, Cage ultimately liked the offer AEW gave him.
Sources noted that AEW worked hard to get the deal done, and the two sides agreed to a deal in principle by the time Cage aligned with Swerve Strickland on the April 7 episode of AEW Rampage.
Cage, one-third of the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions, retained the titles alongside Kaun and Toa Liona at ROH Supercard of Honor on March 31. His contract was up, but he reportedly agreed to work through the show. Cage was then working without a contract, but a new update states that he has put pen to paper.
Following a main event run in Impact Wrestling, Cage signed with AEW at the start of 2020 and officially debuted at that year’s Double or Nothing event.
He went on to be awarded the FTW Championship as a member of Team Taz. A year later, he lost the title to Ricky Starks and was later booked on ROH shows in 2022. Cage and The Gates of Agony have held the ROH Six-Man tag titles since Final Battle in December.
