Update on WWE’s Interest in AEW Stars Ricky Starks and Daniel Garcia – WWE is showing interest in AEW stars Ricky Starks and Daniel Garcia, both of whom have contracts that are close to expiring.
Ricky Starks has been notably absent from AEW television for several months, with his last appearance taking place on the March 30 episode of AEW Collision. During that match, which saw Top Flight secure a victory over Starks and Big Bill, there was initial concern about a potential injury. However, Starks later clarified that he wasn’t injured, and the reason for his absence remains unclear. AEW President Tony Khan has expressed his desire to see Starks return, and according to a recent report by Fightful, Starks has only rejected one creative idea in recent months: a proposed breakup and subsequent feud with Big Bill. Starks reportedly felt that such a storyline wouldn’t benefit Big Bill and preferred a more amicable split if it were to happen.
Meanwhile, PWInsider has reported that WWE sources have expressed clear interest in several AEW stars whose contracts are nearing their end or who have been off television for some time, including both Starks and Daniel Garcia.
The exact timing of Starks’ AEW contract expiration is currently unknown, as is whether any formal discussions have taken place between him and WWE. However, speculation is growing among fans that Starks could eventually make the move to WWE, especially given his connections with WWE figures like CM Punk and Cody Rhodes. As both Starks and Garcia’s futures remain uncertain, it will be interesting to see how the situation develops in the coming months.
