Tony Khan Denied Ricky Starks’ AEW Release Request

Tony Khan Denied Ricky Starks’ AEW Release Request – Ricky Starks is reportedly looking to leave AEW following nearly a year of inactivity on the company’s programming. According to Ibou of WrestlePurists, Starks has requested his release from AEW in the past, but CEO Tony Khan has denied the request, leaving Starks to wait out the remainder of his contract.

The report notes that several factors have contributed to the situation, though many of the details remain undisclosed. Starks has been off AEW television since March 2024 and has openly expressed frustration about his absence, stating that he is unsure why he isn’t being utilized.

To stay active and relevant, Starks has turned to independent wrestling. He has worked events for Glory Pro WrestlePocalypse and House of Glory, though he was pulled from GCW appearances following the controversy surrounding Effy.

There is reportedly strong interest from WWE in signing Starks once his AEW contract expires. Many within the industry expect Starks to join WWE when he becomes a free agent.

For now, Starks continues to focus on the independent circuit while waiting for an opportunity to reignite his career on a larger stage.
