As PWInsider.com reported during our AEW Double or Nothing Post-Game Show for Elite susbcribers on Sunday evening, Lio Rush, who debuted for All Elite Wrestling over the weekend, signed recently with New Japan Pro Wrestling. One source believed Rush may have signed as early as late April.
We are told that New Japan has given their blessing for Rush to work for AEW and MLW and that he'll continue to be a regular on NJPW Strong and beyond for the promotion.
Meanwhile, for those who asked about Rush and Mark Henry, who famously had issues that landed on Twitter previously, being in the same place, Rush wrote on Twitter that he and Henry had a long talk at the PPV and have put the past behind them:
For those of you wondering....Yes me and Mark Henry had a long in depth conversation last night. Looking forward to the future.
