Saraya Reportedly Re-Signs With AEW
Saraya is reportedly staying in All Elite Wresting.
The former AEW Women's World Champion has come to terms on a new deal that will keep her in AEW through next September, according to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select.
Her contract was reportedly due to expire some time this month, but Ross Sapp says there were option years included in her original deal. Sources have indicated to Fightful, however, that this 1-year contract appears to be an entirely separate agreement.
Saraya is set to compete against Jamie Hayter this Saturday night on Grand Slam Collision, which was filmed Wednesday night at Arthur Ashe Stadium immediately following Grand Slam Dynamite, in a 'Saraya Rules' Match.
In case you missed it, the rules of a 'Saraya Rules' Match are essentially as follows:
- Saraya is allowed to do whatever she wants, except hammerlocks for some odd reason.
- Jamie Hayter meantime, must abide by the strict official standards for a regular one-on-one match. Once again though, no hammerlocks.
