Over the last day or so, there's been a lot of talk about the future of Malakai Black within AEW.
PWInsider.com is told by several sources that Black is believed to be leaving the company and that he is expected to be a free agent sometime in the area of February/March.
Black is still technically under contract but those we have spoken with believe he is done with any future appearances.
Black, a former WWE NXT Champion, signed with AEW in 2021 after WWE, then being overseen by Vince McMahon, released him. Black was pushed heavily by Paul Levesque in NXT and one would think WWE is the most likely landing place for him once he is free and clear. While in AEW, he feuded with Cody Rhodes and Adam Copeland and headed The House of Black, which also featured Brody King, Julia Hart and Buddy Matthews.
Black is slated to make a rare independent appearance tomorrow in Florida for Coastal Championship Wrestling.
