In recent developments, the Grizzled Young Veterans have reportedly been in negotiations with All Elite Wrestling (AEW). Sources close to the matter indicate there is potential for the duo to join the prominent wrestling promotion.
The team, comprised of Zack Gibson and James Drake, had a successful stint with WWE starting in 2018, which included capturing the NXT UK Tag Team Championship. Following their WWE tenure which concluded in October 2023, the pair have been active on the independent circuit, including appearances in TNA. Their AEW premiere took place during the April 27 broadcast of AEW Collision, though they did not secure a victory against The Acclaimed. Subsequent appearances in AEW by the team have not yet been scheduled.
According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful via Fightful Select, discussions surrounding a formal contract with AEW have been underway, yet no definitive agreement was reached as of the previous week. AEW’s interest in the Grizzled Young Veterans, however, remains strong.
In addition to their presence in AEW discussions, the Grizzled Young Veterans have continued to compete elsewhere, notably winning the Undisputed British Tag Team Championship with RevPro.
As further details emerge, WrestleZone is committed to providing updated information.
